At Jim Shorkey Mazda in Gainesville, we often hear from families searching for that ideal vehicle that balances safety, comfort, and versatility. The 2025 Mazda CX-50 has been turning heads on our showroom floor, and for good reason. Let’s explore why this could be the perfect addition to your family’s driveway.
Safety First: Protecting What Matters Most
When it comes to family vehicles, safety isn’t just a feature – it’s a necessity. The 2025 CX-50 excels in this department, earning the prestigious IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation. Every trim comes standard with advanced safety features, including:
- Smart Brake Support
- Blind Spot Monitoring
- Lane-keep Assist
- And more!
These aren’t just fancy terms – they’re your family’s extra set of eyes on the road, helping to prevent accidents before they happen.
Space & Versatility: Room for Life’s Adventures
Family life means cargo – lots of it. With 31.4 cubic feet of cargo space, the CX-50 easily accommodates everything from weekly grocery runs to sports equipment and family road trip essentials. The available power liftgate (standard on the Preferred trim and above) makes loading and unloading a breeze when your hands are full with kids and bags.
Comfort for the Whole Family
The CX-50’s interior is where luxury meets practicality. Starting at the Preferred trim level, you’ll find features that make family journeys more comfortable:
- 3-level heated front seats
- 8-way power-adjustable driver seat
- Premium interior materials that stand up to daily family use
Upgrade to the Premium Plus trim, and you’ll enjoy ventilated front seats and leather-trimmed seating – perfect for both hot Georgia summers and those inevitable juice box spills.
Performance That Parents Will Love
The 2025 CX-50 offers something special in the performance department: Mazda’s Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) technology. This innovative system allows you to switch between different drive modes:
- Normal Mode for everyday efficiency
- Sport Mode for more engaging drives
- Off-Road Mode for weekend adventures
- Available Towing Mode for family trips (up to 3,500 lbs capacity)
The Eco-Conscious Choice
For families looking to reduce their carbon footprint (and fuel costs), the new hybrid version is a game-changer. With up to 219 horsepower and an impressive EPA-estimated 38 combined MPG, it proves that you don’t have to sacrifice performance for efficiency.
Price Point: Family-Friendly Value
Starting at $30,300, the CX-50 offers remarkable value for families. With six distinct trim levels ranging up to $43,300, there’s a perfect fit for every budget and need. Our personal recommendation for families? The 2.5 S Premium trim at $34,000 hits the sweet spot with its panoramic moonroof (perfect for stargazing with the kids) and premium Bose audio system.
