The 2025 Mazda CX-70: Everything You Need to Know

It’s coming in 2024, and i’ll offer some compelling engine choices.

Mazda has been rolling out a revamped SUV lineup over the last couple years. We’ve seen the CX-30 replace the CX-3, the CX-50 arrive to eventually replace the CX-5 (when the latter stops selling so well, at least) and the CX-90 replace the CX-9.

As of now, Mazda doesn’t currently have a CX-7 — the name was last used for a crossover in the late 2000s and early 2010s. But that doesn’t mean the brand doesn’t want to compete in that space — so it’s not very surprising to learn Mazda will be adding a new CX-70 to the American lineup.

Here’s what we know so far about the 2025 Mazda CX-70.

The Mazda CX-70 debuts on January 30, 2024

Mazda confirmed last year that the CX-70 was delayed until 2024. And now we have a firm release date. According to Mazda Canada’s website, the CX-70 will debut on January 30, 2024 at 11:00am EST.

A January reveal likely means the CX-70 will go on sale later in 2024 as a 2025 model-year vehicle, but Mazda has not confirmed that timeline yet.

The Mazda CX-70 should be a two-row midsize SUV

The CX-70, as the numerical designation suggests, should slot between the CX-50 and CX-90 as a two-row midsize SUV. Mazda has already unveiled the CX-60 (pictured here) for other markets. The CX-70 should be a tweaked version for the American market, potentially offering more space.

What engines will the Mazda CX-70 have?

Automotive News initially reported that the CX-70 will offer a hybrid powertrain; the data appears to bear that out. AutoGuide uncovered a California Air Resources Board filing for the CX-70. The filing shows the CX-70 receiving the same engine lineup as the CX-90, two versions of the 3.3-liter inline-six and a 2.5-liter plug-in hybrid.

What will the Mazda CX-70 look like?

Mazda carries over a lot of the same design language from vehicle to vehicle. The CX-60 looks like someone shrunk a CX-90. And the CX-70 should strongly resemble both of them on the exterior and offer a similarly luxurious interior.

How much will the Mazda CX-70 cost?

Mazda has not made any announcements about CX-70 pricing yet. However, the CX-50 starts at $30,300 and tops out at $43,300 with the Turbo Premium Plus model. The CX-90 begins at $39,595 and tops out at $59,950. We can expect the CX-70 to slot between them.
