2025 Mazda CX-70 in Whitby

The Mazda CX-70 comes with new features that differentiate it from its predecessor. Additionally, Mazda has made significant upgrades to its infotainment system and added more advanced safety features to make the CX-70 an excellent choice in the SUV market. For those who are curious about what the 2025 Mazda CX-70 will look like and perform, here is everything you need to know.

 

Notable Changes from the Previous Year

As mentioned earlier, the CX-70 shares the same platform as last year's CX-90. The SUV has a few changes on its exterior to differentiate it from its predecessor, such as blacked-out exterior trim and a new wheel design.

Inside, the CX-70 features the same layout as the CX-90. However, this new vehicle only has two rows of seats compared to the CX-90 that has three. The CX-70's cargo space should offer the same amount of space as the CX-90 does with its third row folded, but it has a larger underfloor storage compartment.

 

Infotainment and Technology Features

The CX-70's infotainment system is one of its most significant features. All models come with a 12.3-inch display that uses Mazda's latest software. While it is not a touchscreen, it is a device that is easy to use with a control knob and a few buttons on the center console that operate the central display.

The infotainment display features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard. It is worth remembering that an Amazon Alexa integration option is available for 2025, allowing drivers to use their voice to control features of the vehicle, play music, and access a variety of Alexa skills.

Exterior Design

Mazda has taken a minimalist approach to the CX-70's exterior, setting it apart from its CX-90 predecessor. Blacked-out exterior trims outline the grille, door handles, and mirror caps. The unique black trim accent gives the CX-70 a more aggressive look, conveying a sense of motion even while stationary.

The CX-70 also features a dramatic front and rear fascia design that further refines its appearance. The sculpted body lines follow the refined but aggressive design language of the stunning CX range.

 

Interior Comfort and Cargo Space

The 2025 CX-70 looks just as luxurious inside as it is on the outside. The vehicle boasts all the latest Mazda design features seen in previous models, such as premium materials and chic designs.

The leather seats wrap cozily around drivers for the best possible comfort, and the CX-70 offers a more refined interior atmosphere compared to its predecessor. Additionally, the CX-70 can accommodate up to five passengers, and higher-spec trims offer Red Nappa leather upholstery.

The vehicle also has plenty of storage space, with a sizeable underfloor storage compartment and a glovebox with ample space — not to mention spacious front and back seats. Furthermore, with the 70's second-row seats down, there's a vast cargo area with 3,049 litres of storage, which should be more than enough to load for pretty much any lifestyle.

 

Performance Features

The CX-70 carries over the same powertrains as the CX-90 from its predecessor. The non-hybrid models come with a turbocharged 3.3-litre inline-six engine that delivers 280 horsepower in the base model and 340 horsepower in the S variant.

 

Safety and Driver Assistance Features

The CX-70 is one of the safest SUVs on the market today. Mazda has loaded its latest SUV with safety technologies designed to keep occupants safe and avoid accidents on the road. All nonhybrid CX-70 models feature i-Activsense, a suite of driver-assistance features that includes automated emergency braking and lane-keeping assistance technologies.

GS-L Trim: Balancing Performance and Utility

The 2025 Mazda CX-70 PHEV in the GS-L trim is the epitome of practicality with an edge of luxury. The 2.5-litre e-Skyactiv PHEV engine delivers up to 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, ensuring you’re never short on power whether you’re navigating Whitby’s urban streets or heading out on a weekend escape to the Kawarthas. This trim also offers an impressive fuel efficiency of up to 8.7 L/100 km on the highway, making it an economical choice for long drives.

Key features of the GS-L trim include Mazda's i-Activ AWD, which provides excellent traction in Ontario’s unpredictable weather. The Mi-Drive system allows you to switch between Normal, Sport, Off-road, EV, and Towing modes, making the CX-70 versatile for various driving conditions. The GS-L’s interior boasts black leatherette seating, a 10.25-inch full-colour display, and a 12.3-inch LCD meter set, all designed to enhance your driving experience. With 19-inch alloy wheels and a black honeycomb grille, the CX-70 in GS-L trim strikes a perfect balance between form and function.

GT Trim: Elevating Luxury and Innovation

For those seeking an elevated driving experience, the GT trim of the 2025 Mazda CX-70 PHEV takes luxury to new heights. While it retains the powerful engine and fuel efficiency of the GS-L, the GT trim adds a touch of Japanese opulence with features like Premium Nappa Leather-trimmed upholstery and a 12-speaker Bose premium sound system that transforms every drive into a concert-like experience.

The GT trim is also packed with advanced technology, including a 360° View Monitor and a windshield-projected Active Driving Display, ensuring that you stay aware of your surroundings in all conditions. The exterior of the GT trim is accentuated with 21-inch alloy wheels and a choice of sophisticated colours like Polymetal Grey Metallic and Melting Copper Metallic.
