2025 MAZDA CX-5 2.5 S vs 2025 MAZDA CX-5 2.5 S SELECT
Serving Chicago, IL
The 2025 Mazda CX-5 is one of the top-performing Mazda SUVs in Chicago, IL, offering sleek design, dependable performance, and modern technology across every trim. At McGrath City Mazda, two of the most popular trims—the 2.5 S and the 2.5 S Select—deliver excellent value with different levels of comfort and convenience. Let's break down the key differences so you can choose the right trim for your Chicago lifestyle.
Performance
Mazda engineered both of these Mazda CX-5 trims with performance that balances efficiency and agility, making them ideal for city commutes and weekend drives. Both are powered by a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine producing 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. A smooth 6-speed automatic transmission with Sport and Manual Shift modes comes standard. All-wheel drive provides traction in Chicago's rain and snow. G-Vectoring Control Plus delivers smooth handling and stability for I-90 traffic or winding Lake Shore Drive routes.
Appearance
Both trims showcase the Mazda KODO: Soul of Motion design, giving the Mazda CX-5 a premium appearance that turns heads throughout Chicago. Shared design highlights include bold paint colors such as Soul Red Crystal Metallic, Deep Crystal Blue, Zircon Sand, and Polymetal Gray. Each trim rides on 17-inch Gray Metallic alloy wheels, features LED headlights, a dual exhaust, and a sleek roof spoiler.
Inside, the Mazda CX-5 2.5 S features durable black cloth seating, while the 2.5 S Select adds an upscale edge with available leatherette upholstery.
Features
Mazda equips both trims with plenty of value, but the 2.5 S Select includes extra comfort and convenience for Chicago drivers who want more luxury. Shared features across both trims include a 10.25-inch Mazda Connect™ infotainment system with Apple CarPlay® & Android Auto™, push-button start, Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, and carpeted floor mats for added comfort.
Exclusive 2.5 S Select upgrades include heated front seats with three temperature settings, a 6-way power driver's seat with lumbar support, an upgraded 6-speaker audio system (vs. 4 speakers in the base trim), and rear passenger dual USB charging ports.
