MAZDA CX-5 Vs. Acura MDX

There are plenty of choices when you’re considering a crossover SUV, and Hubler Mazda has you covered. Let’s take a look at two standouts in a crowded field: the Mazda CX-5 and the Acura MDX.

Exterior Style: Soul of Motion

The first and most noticeable difference between the Mazda CX-5 and the Acura MDX is their design. Sleek, sporty and stylish, the Mazda CX-5 is a head-turning SUV with a design that draws from Mazda’s “Kodo” philosophy: the “soul of motion” approach uses single, flowing lines to imply dynamic movement.

The Acura MDX is attractive (if boxy), but not a standout like the Mazda CX-5. You’ll also find more legroom and flexible cargo options in the Mazda CX-5.

Smart Driving Tech

While both the Mazda CX-5 and the Acura MDX offer the kind of driver technology you’ve come to expect from a modern SUV, only the Mazda CX-5 comes with the Mazda Connect™ infotainment system with a big 10.5-inch touchscreen.

Mazda’s Connected Services let you remotely start the engine, lock and unlock the doors, and access your vehicle’s health status, all from your smartphone. These features do not come standard with the Acura MDX.

Pricing: A Clear Choice

By now, you should be asking: what do these SUVs cost? Here is where the Mazda CX-5 pulls way ahead of the Acura MDX. The starting price of the 2021 Mazda CX-5 Sport trim starts at $25,370. The top-tier Signature trim starts at $37,505. This comes in far below the starting price of the Acura MDX, which is $47,200.

When you start to add in options and features, the more modestly-priced Mazda CX-5 trims are clearly where you get the more bang for your bucks.
