The all-new 2026 Mazda CX-5 represents the most significant redesign in the model's history — third-generation platform, a longer wheelbase with meaningfully more rear-seat room, Google Built-in on the 12.9-inch standard touchscreen, a sweeping new suite of standard safety features, and a bolder Kodo exterior inspired by the CX-70 and CX-90. Kelley Blue Book says the CX-5's athletic, connected driving character is its defining quality — and the 2026 generation keeps all of that while expanding the practical package around it. For Colorado Springs shoppers searching for a Mazda CX-5 for sale in Colorado Springs, CO, new 2026 CX-5 inventory is available now at Bob Penkhus Mazda South, 1101 Motor City Dr, Colorado Springs, CO 80905. Our team serves buyers from Falcon, Fountain, Pueblo, and across the Front Range.

Why the All-New 2026 CX-5 Is Worth Buying Now

The 2026 CX-5 is a true generational upgrade — not a refresh. The wheelbase grows by 3 inches and overall length by 4.5 inches, making the rear seat meaningfully more livable for adult passengers and expanding cargo capacity in ways that directly address the most consistent criticism of the outgoing model. The standard 12.9-inch touchscreen with Google Built-in makes the CX-5 the first Mazda to offer the platform natively, and the available 15.6-inch display on the Premium Plus is the largest ever installed in a Mazda production vehicle. Safety leadership is another compelling reason to buy now: the 2026 is the first Mazda to offer rear automatic emergency braking, rear cross-traffic braking, forward turn-across-traffic braking, emergency lane keeping, and blind spot assist as standard equipment across every trim level. For Colorado Springs families using a compact crossover as a primary vehicle, that level of standard active safety technology at the entry price point is a genuine differentiator.

The 2026 Mazda CX-5 Trim Lineup

Five trims cover the CX-5 lineup with a single powertrain — the SKYACTIV-G 2.5-liter four-cylinder at 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque — paired with a 6-speed automatic and standard AWD on all. The 2.5 S at $29,990 arrives with the full new standard safety suite, Google Built-in, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and standard AWD — a fully capable entry that sets a new bar for what base-trim compact crossovers include. The 2.5 S Select at $31,990 adds wireless charging, leatherette seating with sueded inserts, and heated power-folding mirrors. The 2.5 S Preferred at $34,250 is expected to be the volume trim — adding a power liftgate, heated front seats, heated steering wheel, and proximity keyless access. The 2.5 S Premium at $36,900 takes the CX-5 into near-luxury territory with ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a panoramic sunroof, Bose 12-speaker Centerpoint audio, gloss black exterior trim, 19-inch black metallic wheels, and seven-color ambient lighting. The 2.5 S Premium Plus at $38,990 adds the 15.6-inch touchscreen, adaptive front lighting, 360-degree view monitor, Lane Change Assist, Driver Monitoring, Front Cross Traffic Alert and Braking, and Mazda Driver Personalization — the same system that debuted on the flagship CX-90.

Standard AWD for Colorado Springs Year-Round Driving

Standard i-Activ AWD on every CX-5 trim is one of the strongest practical arguments for buying a CX-5 over comparable compact crossovers. The system continuously monitors 27 parameters — steering angle, wheel speed, lateral g-force, throttle position, brake pressure, and more — to distribute torque predictively rather than reactively. For Colorado Springs buyers who deal with I-25 in snow, Front Range ice, and the occasional winter drive up to the Pikes Peak region, the difference between predictive AWD and reactive AWD is a real-world handling advantage. And because AWD is standard rather than a trim-level upgrade, Colorado Springs CX-5 buyers never have to choose between the features they want and the traction capability they need.
