The 2026 MAZDA CX-70: More Features and Enhanced Styling

After bursting onto the midsize SUV scene last year, the Mazda CX-70 further increases its appeal in year two. Even more premium features are spread across the five-trim roster of the 2026 Mazda CX-70, and every trim boasts new black Mazda badging that further enhances this model’s sporty design.

Power and Performance
This new Mazda SUV seats five and offers two powertrains, each featuring a 3.3-liter turbocharged engine. For the three “3.3 Turbo” trims, this engine achieves 280 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. For the two trims with “3.3 Turbo S” in their name, engine output increases to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque when using premium fuel. Accompanying this powerplant are an eight-speed automatic transmission and i-Activ AWD® for confident all-season performance.
Cargo and Towing
The interior of the 2026 Mazda CX-70 blends the brand’s signature sophistication with abundant space. A maximum of 75.3 cubic feet of cargo room is available with the second row folded down, and there’s also additional storage room in an underfloor compartment. Even with the second row up, the cargo hold still measures a sizable 39.6 cu ft.
On select trims equipped with an available tow hitch, the 2026 Mazda CX-70 achieves its maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs. Several high-tech enhancements are available to make towing safer and easier, including a dedicated Towing Mode and a 360-Degree View Monitor with Trailer Hitch View.
Safety
The entire 2026 Mazda CX-70 lineup comes standard with the i-Activsense® suite of advanced driver assistance systems. With a menu of features that includes Rear Passenger Reminder, Lane-Keeping Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control, it’s no wonder the previous model year earned a 2025 IIHS Top Safety Pick+ and an NHTSA 5-Star Overall Safety Rating. Plus, if you opt for one of the top-line trims at our Evanston, IL, Mazda dealership, you’ll also get technologies such as Traffic Sign Recognition and Secondary Collision Reduction.
