This 2025 Mazda CX-5 Akera combines the practical dimensions of a five-door wagon with a specification aimed at making everyday driving more comfortable, connected and composed. Finished in Soul Red Crystal, it presents as a well-equipped example of Mazda’s established mid-size SUV, with five seats and a 2.5-litre petrol engine matched to a six-speed sports automatic transmission.

The Akera grade brings a strong emphasis on cabin comfort. Nappa leather seating, heated front and rear seats, and ventilation for both front occupants give the interior useful flexibility across changing conditions. The driver’s electric seat includes memory and lumbar adjustment, while the heated steering wheel and dual-zone climate control add further convenience for longer journeys. Rear-seat passengers benefit from reclining and split-fold functionality, allowing the cabin to adapt when passenger space and cargo capacity need to be balanced.

There is also a clear focus on making the CX-5 easy to operate. Key proximity entry, keyless start, a hands-free power tailgate and remote-controlled windows reduce the effort involved in daily loading and access. The 19-inch alloy wheels, electric folding heated mirrors and LED lighting contribute to the vehicle’s polished presentation, while the electric sunroof gives the cabin an additional source of light.

For occupants who spend substantial time on the road, the technology specification is substantial. Satellite navigation, a colour multifunction display, digital radio, Bluetooth connectivity and wireless smartphone integration through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide several ways to access navigation, audio and communication functions. A 10-speaker premium sound system supports the infotainment setup, and wireless device charging helps keep compatible phones ready without adding cable clutter.

The CX-5’s safety and driver-assistance equipment is similarly comprehensive. Front, rear and side cameras work with front and rear parking sensors to improve visibility in tighter spaces. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic warning, forward and rearward collision warnings, lane-keeping assistance and lane-departure warning provide additional awareness around the vehicle. Adaptive cruise control with distance control, driver attention detection, road-sign recognition and a head-up display are designed to make information easier to monitor without taking unnecessary attention away from the road.

Power is delivered through a 4WD system, giving this CX-5 the all-wheel-drive configuration identified by its i-ACTIV badge. The petrol engine includes cylinder shutdown and stop-start functions, while the listed combined fuel consumption is 7.4L/100km. A braked towing capacity of 1800kg adds practical versatility, subject to the appropriate equipment and conditions. With five seats, a split-folding second row and a hands-free tailgate, the overall package is suited to owners who need useful day-to-day space without moving into a larger SUV.
