Mazda CX-70 Specs: Engines, Performance & Efficiency
Did you notice the "Turbo," "Turbo S," or "PHEV" label affixed to each Mazda CX-70 configuration? It represents the engine inside. These aren't your typical engine options, though. The Mazda CX-70 powertrains include two e-Skyactiv®-G 3.3-liter inline-six mild-hybrid engines. The plug-in hybrid model uses an e-Skyactiv®-PHEV 2.5-liter engine with an electric motor. All variants have standard rear-biased i-Activ AWD®.
The 3.3 Turbo trim levels come equipped with the e-Skyactiv®-G 3.3-liter engine in its standard guise, which is capable of making 280 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. This Mazda SUV delivers up to 340 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque from the enhanced e-Skyactiv®-G 3.3-liter engine in the 3.3 Turbo S trim levels. For eco-conscious fun, the PHEV option provides 323 total horsepower and 369 total pound-feet of torque with the ability to drive up to an EPA-estimated 26 miles3 on just electricity.
It should be noted that an inline-six like the Mazda CX-70 engine is a unique format. It is typically smoother than similar V-6 engines, and it can often outperform them in both torque and horsepower. With mild-hybrid electrification adding efficiency, you get high-performance driving fun mixed with a smooth, fuel-friendly ride. The PHEV option is also appealing, as it is the ideal middle ground between an all-electric SUV and a traditional gasoline car.
Continuing the Mazda CX-70 review with fuel-efficiency specs, the 3.3 Turbo trims return an EPA-estimated 24/28/25 MPG (City/Highway/Combined).1 The 3.3 Turbo S trims require little compromise for their added power, as they render an EPA-estimated 23/28/25 MPG (City/Highway/Combined).1 The Mazda CX-70 PHEV models, meanwhile, deliver an EPA-estimated 56 MPGe.2
For towing, the 3.3 Turbo and 3.3 Turbo S trims can tow up to 5,000 pounds,4 while the PHEV models can tow a maximum of 3,500 pounds.4
All 2025 Mazda CX-70 configurations are equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission and Mazda Intelligent Drive Modes for customizable performance. The complete list of modes includes Sport, Towing, Off-Road, and EV, with certain settings depending on the model.
