If you’re ready to support a greener tomorrow, the Mazda CX-70 can help. This model is available in two hybrid variants, providing the longevity between refueling you crave without compromising the power you know Mazda can deliver.
Let’s discuss the Mazda CX-70’s mild-hybrid powertrain first. It pairs a 3.3L e-Skyactiv®-G inline-6 engine with an 11 kW M-Hybrid Boost system to produce up to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. Every time you step on the gas, you’ll experience the best of what an engine and an electric motor can do.
This model's powertrain is bolstered by i-Activ AWD® and the 8-speed automatic transmission. This combination offers slip-free, high-traction adventures and precise acceleration.
The Mazda’s versatility is shown through its strength and endurance. The Mazda CX-70 can tow up to 2,268 kilograms (5,000 pounds) with the proper equipment. Conversely, this model achieves a maximum estimated 10.3 city/8.5 highway L/100KM rating.*
Drivers interested in an electric vehicle but not ready to commit fully will enjoy the Mazda CX-70 plug-in hybrid! It blends a 2.5L e-Skyactiv® 4-cylinder engine with a rechargeable 68-kW e-Skyactiv®-PHEV motor, producing a mighty 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque.
With this powertrain equipped, the Mazda CX-70 achieves:
- Estimated EV range of 42 kilometres**
- Estimated total range of 798 kilometres**
The plug-in hybrid Mazda CX-70 has the same drivetrain and transmission but has a maximum towing capacity of 1,588 kilograms (3,500 pounds).
The Mazda CX-70 treats you to hybrid powertrains that allow you more interruption-free fun. It also provides ample interior space and creature comforts that feel like home.
The Mazda CX-70 can seat up to five passengers. How is the passenger space split between the two rows? We took out the tape measure to find out:
- Headroom (front/rear): 1,005/975 millimetres
- Legroom (front/rear): 1,058/1,000 millimetres
There’s accommodating room for your favourite people and their essentials! With all seats occupied, you’ll have 1,131 litres of trunk space for handbags, groceries, golf clubs, luggage, and more! When you use the 60/40 split fold-down and reclining second-row seats, you’ll gain up to 2,147 litres of space, perfect for longer cargo.
Space is a hot commodity, and so are creature comforts that put you in the literal lap of luxury. The Mazda CX-70 is not shy when it comes to its standard offerings. Enjoy these luxuries:
- 3-zone automatic climate control
- Moonroof
- Heated front seats
- Leatherette upholstery
You can double down on your comfort when you upgrade to a higher trim level, which welcomes the following amenities:
- 8-way power-adjustable passenger seat
- Driver’s seat memory position
- Ventilated front seats
- Nappa leather upholstery
- Heated rear seats
You deserve to treat yourself. Go wild with the Mazda CX-70.
As the driver, the cockpit is your domain. The Mazda CX-70 treats you to high-definition displays, a user-friendly infotainment system, and wire-free connectivity, making this SUV a master of convenience. Speaking of which, protecting you is second nature, thanks to its standard safety suite.
The Mazda CX-70 comes standard with the Mazda Connect™ infotainment system, which features an available 12.3-inch touchscreen. This screen can be utilized via touch, voice command, or the Multifunction Commander control.
Pairing your smartphone to the multimedia setup is easy with Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and Bluetooth®. Alexa Built-In is available, allowing you to bring Alexa on your commutes and command her as you would at home!
You can upgrade your cockpit with two unique features. The Mazda Navigation System is one option, and it includes an off-road navigation feature. The other is the 12-speaker Bose® Centerpoint® 2 surround sound system with AudioPilot® 2 noise compensation technology, which will rouse audiophiles near and far!
Every trim level of the Mazda CX-70 has i-Activsense®, Mazda’s driver-assistance suite. It includes several features designed to mitigate and help prevent accidents, keep you in your lane, take the edge off long commutes, and watch you behind the wheel. Some features include:
- Blind Spot Monitoring
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Lane-keep Assist and Lane Departure Warning System
- Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go
- Driver Attention Alert
When you upgrade your Mazda with the available Secondary Collision Reduction System, Front Cross Traffic Alert, and Turning Across Path Alert, you get even more protection.
