2025 MAZDA CX-50 Hybrid vs. Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
In the competitive compact hybrid SUV class, the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid may be one of the newest players, but it’s undoubtedly one of the best. Premium infotainment technology, unsurpassed performance, and stunning styling are three big reasons why. Join Sentry West Mazda for a comparison of this SUV to one of its biggest rivals, the 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.
Infotainment Technology
When it comes to infotainment technology, the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid is on the cutting edge. All three trims come standard with a 10.25-inch infotainment display, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity, an eight-speaker sound system, and Alexa Built-in™. Moreover, the mid- and high-end trims upgrade to a wireless smartphone charger and a 12-speaker Bose® premium sound system.
For the 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, most trims equip smaller six-speaker sound systems and 8-inch touchscreens. It isn’t until the two highest trims that features comparable to our new Mazda SUV become standard. Wireless charging isn’t standard on any Toyota RAV4 Hybrid trim, nor is Alexa Built-in available.
Performance
The steering and handling of the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid is at a level that’s usually only found on more expensive performance SUVs. Systems such as an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission, electronic all-wheel drive, and Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive™) ensure signature Mazda driving dynamics. While the 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid accelerates well, its handling and overall doesn’t match that of the Mazda SUV.
Interior & Exterior Styling
The 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid exemplifies the Mazda brand’s command of singular, sophisticated interior and exterior styling. See this model at our Shrewsbury, MA, Mazda dealership and its likely you’ll come up with additional adjectives, such as “classy” and “upscale”.
