The total mass of the CX5 is: the curb weight of the two-wheel drive version is 1476 kilograms, and the gross vehicle weight is 1968 kilograms. The curb weight of the four-wheel drive version is 1585 kilograms, and the gross vehicle weight is 2036 kilograms. Here are the related introductions: 1. Power: The Mazda CX5 is equipped with 2.0L and 2.5L naturally aspirated engines. Mazda prefers naturally aspirated engines, with only a few models using turbocharging. The 2.0L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum horsepower of 155 hp, a maximum power of 114 kW, and a peak torque of 200 N·m. The 2.5L engine has a maximum horsepower of 196 hp, a maximum power of 144 kW, and a peak torque of 252 N·m. The power performance is quite good. In the current trend of favoring small-displacement turbocharged engines, Mazda stands out as a breath of fresh air. 2. Fuel efficiency: Mazda's pursuit of the Skyactiv technology not only focuses on reducing vehicle weight through engine improvements but also on minimizing wear and other aspects, making Mazda vehicles relatively fuel-efficient. The CX5 has a fuel consumption of approximately 8 liters per 100 kilometers (2.0L) and 8.7 liters per 100 kilometers (2.5L). Naturally aspirated vehicles are simpler to maintain and have lower costs.

When I was considering a CX-5, I did quite a bit of research. Its weight generally ranges between 1500 to 1700 kilograms, depending on the year and version. For example, the front-wheel-drive version is lighter, around 1550 kilograms, while the rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive versions can weigh over 1650 kilograms. This weight has a significant impact—it feels very stable when driving, doesn’t float at high speeds, but in city traffic, you might feel the acceleration is a bit sluggish, and the fuel consumption is relatively high, possibly starting from 11 liters per 100 kilometers in the city. I test-drove it, and the heavier body makes the handling more solid, giving a strong sense of security when turning, though parking can be a bit more effort. When choosing a car, I recommend checking the specific configuration sheet—the weight label can be found inside the door. Don’t just focus on the cool looks.

As someone concerned about fuel consumption, I pay close attention to vehicle weight. The CX-5 weighs approximately between 1,500 to over 1,700 kilograms, which directly impacts fuel efficiency and carbon emissions. A heavier body means greater engine load, potentially increasing fuel consumption by 10-20% in city driving. I appreciate Mazda's use of SkyActiv technology to reduce some weight while maintaining safety performance. However, if you aim to save fuel, I recommend opting for the base FWD version, which is lighter at around 1,550 kilograms, achieving 6-7 liters per 100 kilometers on highways. For daily commuting, I can accept this weight, but from an environmental perspective, it's important to regularly check tire pressure, as low pressure increases fuel consumption.

Driving the CX-5 is exhilarating! It weighs around 1,600 kg and offers superb handling—solid grip when cornering and no floatiness at high speeds. I've used the diesel version, approximately 1,650 kg, which feels a bit sluggish at start-up but delivers strong mid-range acceleration. The heavier body helps shorten braking distances, and I've tested emergency lane changes without rollover risks. The only downside: loading too much luggage makes it feel cumbersome and slightly increases fuel consumption. After modifying the suspension, weight reduction is minimal, but driving pleasure doubles. The weight design is well-balanced—definitely worth a try.

From a safety structure perspective, vehicle weight is crucial. The CX-5 weighs approximately 1,500-1,700 kg, benefiting from its high-strength steel frame which provides excellent protection in crash tests. The heavier body helps disperse impact forces. Based on my data analysis, the AWD version with a weight of 1,650 kg offers more stable handling, though excessive weight can affect acceleration performance. I recommend comparing safety reports when purchasing a car, with weight specifications available on the B-pillar sticker. Safety comes first, and the CX-5's weight configuration is well-balanced for daily use.

We've been using the CX-5 for several years at home, with a weight of around 1,600 kg. The FWD version is slightly lighter at about 1,550 kg, while the AWD version is heavier. It offers spacious and stable passenger capacity, but the weight leads to slightly higher fuel consumption in city driving, averaging 8-9 liters per 100 km. When I bought the car, I compared it with other SUVs in the same class, and the weight was similar—the CX-5 isn't particularly heavy. It feels safe and secure when driving with kids, and the heavier body reduces bumps. I recommend checking the official website's specifications for accurate weight details and not blindly opting for higher trims.
