Drivers looking for a new SUV often compare the 2024 models of the Subaru Outback vs. Mazda CX-5. While they’re both excellent vehicles, the 2024 Mazda CX-5 has the edge over its competitors in virtually every category. You can test drive one today at Basney Mazda.
Performance Features
Both the 2024 Subaru Outback and the 2024 Mazda CX-5 are available with turbocharged engines. However, the Mazda model’s SKYACTIV®-G 2.5-liter Dynamic Pressure Turbo engine simply outperforms the Subaru SUV’s 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder option. Although the competitor’s model comes with standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD), it just can’t compare to the standard i-ACTIV AWD® on the Mazda CX-5, which provides the traction and stability you need on just about any terrain and in a wide range of driving conditions.
Speaking of driving conditions, you can conquer any Midwestern weather with the help of the available Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) technology, which allows you to select from drive modes like Normal, Sport, and Off-Road.
Design Features
Sure, the available cloth, water-repellent, and leather-trimmed upholstery in the 2024 Subaru Outback are nice. However, the Mazda CX-5 is designed for pure elegance. The available genuine wood trim and Caturra Brown Nappa leather-trimmed seats envelope you in comfort, and the 10.25-inch Mazda Connect display allows you to control your navigation and entertainment in the driver-centric front seat.
Though the Subaru model offers comfort, the Mazda SUV will make you feel as though the cabin was designed specifically for you.
