Check out our 2020 Mazda CX-5 vs 2020 Hyundai Tucson comparison.
Both the Mazda CX-5 and the Hyundai Tucson are priced to please with AWD available for tackling country roads or challenging weather conditions. Mazda interiors tend to rank among the top in their segments, and the CX-5 compact SUV is just another example. The cabin takes on a sharp design bound in upscale touches like chrome and leather-wrapped surfaces. The 2020 Tucson is pleasant in its own right, but the use of hard plastics and budget materials keeps it on the basic end of the spectrum.

Performance and Safety Advantages of the 2020 Mazda CX-5 Compact SUV
Mazda CX-5 Sport, Touring and Grand Touring models are motivated by a 187-horsepower, 2.5-liter SKYACTIV®-G engine with cylinder deactivation, which contributes to its impressive fuel economy ratings. Grand Touring Reserve and Signature models gain i-ACTIV AWD® and trade up to a turbocharged version of the SKYACTIV®-G engine. The upgraded engine unlocks 250 horsepower and a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 lbs. Even the best equipped Hyundai Tucson can’t match its Mazda rival in efficiency, engine power or towing capability.
The interior of the 2020 Mazda CX-5 also provides plenty more standard features than the 2020 Tucson. Even in its most basic form, the Mazda CX-5 comes loaded with a number of driver assists like rain-sensing windshield wipers, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, rear cross traffic alert and blind spot monitoring. The Tucson doesn’t even begin to match that breath of standard safety equipment.
