THE 2024 CX-50 IS THE SUV TO BEAT, TOPPING OTHER SMALL SUV'S LIKE HONDA CR-V
First released in 2023, the Mazda CX-50 is gaining the attention of customers in the Bergen County area, offering the capabilities of a sport utility vehicle (SUV) in a compact size. Designed to take on the pavement or an off-road excursion, here are the top reasons customers are choosing the 2024 Mazda CX-50 over the competition in the small SUV segment — a class of more than a dozen very competitive crossovers including the Honda CR-V. When it comes to small SUVs, Edmunds ranks the 2024 Mazda CX-50 number one.
01. Performance and Power That Surpasses The Competition
Offering two engine options, the 2024 Mazda CX-50 is available with your choice of a standard 187-horsepower 2.5L four-cylinder engine or CX's more powerful 256-horsepower 2.5L Turbo four-cylinder engine – making it one of the most powerful options in the small utility vehicle segment. No matter which engine option you choose, each engine option comes paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and i-Activ AWD – whereas the Honda CR-V offers a less impressive maximum 190-horsepower, and all-wheel drive is an available option and only found standard on the top-of-the-line Sport Touring Hybrid trim level.
Another area that the 2024 Mazda CX-50 comes out on top over the 2024 Honda CR-V is when it comes to the way you drive with Mazda Intelligent Drive Technology (Mi-Drive) that allows you to optimize your vehicle’s traction and responsiveness based on your needs. The Honda CR-V offers the option of 3 Mode Drive System (ECON/Normal/Snow) or a 4-Mode Drive System (ECON/Normal/Snow/Sport), but when you choose the Mazda CX-50 the standard Mi-Drive offers Normal Mode, Sport Mode, Off-Road Mode and the addition of available Towing Mode. If you intend on towing a boat or small trailer, the 2024 Honda CR-V will only offer a maximum of 1500 lbs towing capacity while the 2024 Mazda CX-50 with Turbo engine offers the capability of towing up to 3,500 lbs.
2024 Mazda CX-50 Offers Eight Available Trim Levels:
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 S Select
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 S Preferred
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 S Premium
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 S Premium Plus
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 Turbo
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 Turbo Meridian Edition
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 Turbo Premium
- 2024 Mazda CX-50 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus
02. Off-Road Capable, Yet Incredibly Luxurious
Easy entry into the vehicle is an appeal to SUV buyers and the Mazda CX-50 doesn’t disappoint. Depending on the trim level, the CX-50 has either 8.3 or 8.6 inches of ground clearance; making it easy to enter and exit the vehicle and easily access the cargo area. Not only is the 2024 Mazda CX-50 off-road capable, it’s incredibly luxurious with a collection of features and a choice of materials that make the CX-50 a premium choice.
Key interior features in the 2024 Mazda CX-50 include comfortable front seats with side bolstering and available heated and ventilated front and rear seats. While both models offer genuine leather seats, the entry-level Mazda CX-50 trim levels feature leatherette-trimmed seats that provide comfort and durability. Designed for the outdoors, the seats are adorned with hard-wearing elements that are designed to last, inspired by the sturdy nylon of climbing backpacks.
Additional Interior Features:
- Heated Steering Wheel
- Available Panoramic Moonroof
While both the Mazda CX-50 and Honda CR-V offer LED headlights and taillights, the CX-50 boasts an off-road-ready presence that shows others that you have the passion to go further – and where other small SUVs often lack the rugged capabilities to go.
03. Features Designed To Transport Equipment and Gear
When you’re heading out in search of an adventure, not only do you need a vehicle that can get you where you’re going, but it often requires you to bring additional gear and equipment. If you’re heading out on a camping or hiking excursion, the rear power liftgate allows you to easily access your Mazda CX-50’s rear cargo area with ease – even when your hands are full. To help you keep items neat and organized, Mazda offers a line of cargo management accessories. Innovative crates called Cargo Blocks, as well as Cargo Nets and Retractable Cargo covers all work to make CX-50 storage easier and more secure.
The Mazda CX-50 surpasses the capabilities of other small SUVs with its ability to transport larger objects with ease. From kayaks, bikes, and even pop-up tents, the Mazda CX-50 was specifically designed for the adventure-minded with high-strength roof rails to support larger items, while a low roof line allows easy access to roof-top items.
04. Advanced Technology Features
When you’re hitting the roads or trails, you want to be sure you’re still connected to the world around you. The intuitive Mazda Connect Infotainment System ensures you’ll never miss a moment with features that include such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility on all trim levels, multiple USB-A ports, and an available wireless charging pad for charging on the go. Inside the Honda CR-V, you can access infotainment technologies through a 7-inch or 9-inch touchscreen or wireless capabilities. The 2024 Mazda CX-50 kicks it up a notch with its larger vivid 10.25-inch center-mounted display — operated using the multifunction Commander control or with voice commands.
The 2024 Mazda CX-50 allows you to easily access traveling directions, and weather forecasts or stream your favorite playlists with in-cabin Wi-Fi available on every trim level, while the Honda CR-V offers Wi-Fi Hotspot capability only on its top-of-the-line Sport Touring Hybrid trim levels.
05. Cutting-Edge Safety and Security Features
The Mazda CX-50 features an expansive lineup of available i-Activsense safety features that offer driver confidence each and every time you head out in the Mazda CX-50. When it comes to safety and security features, both the 2023 Mazda CX-50 and Honda CR-V models earn a Top Safety Pick+ award and come standard with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and active lane control. A key safety feature that edges the CX-50 over the Honda CR-V is the Mazda’s standard i-Activ AWD on every trim level. From snow-covered roads to tough terrains, the Mazda CX-50 offers the confidence and capabilities you need for all-season driving.
