What’s New This Model Year

The CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid is a separate model from the gas CX-70 rather than a trim of it: a 323-hp plug-in hybrid system in place of the inline-six, 32 miles of electric-only driving, and a lower tow rating as the cost of the battery. Two trims, one powertrain, all-wheel drive on both. Dean McCrary Mazda stocks the lineup on the I-65 Service Road in Mobile.

Powertrain

One Plug-In Hybrid System, Both Trims

The e-Skyactiv Plug-In Hybrid system makes 323 hp and 369 lb-ft on 91-octane premium fuel. Both trims get the same output, so the step up the ladder buys equipment rather than power.

Electric Range

32 Miles Before the Engine Starts

32 miles of EPA-rated electric-only driving, then 26 mpg on gasoline once the battery is depleted — 61 MPGe combined. Both figures are identical on the two trims.

Drivetrain

All-Wheel Drive on Both Trims

i-ACTIV AWD® is standard on both trims. There is no front-wheel-drive version of this model and no all-wheel-drive upcharge to add.

Against the Gas Car

Less Towing, Much More Efficiency

3,500 lb of towing against the gas CX-70’s 5,000 — the real cost of the battery’s weight — in exchange for a commute that can run on electricity alone.

Powertrain & Efficiency

One Plug-In Hybrid System, Both Trims

Because the CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid lineup shares a single powertrain and one drivetrain, the numbers below are the same whichever trim you choose. Nothing on this page changes as you move up the ladder except equipment.

Plug-In Hybrid System

323 Horsepower, e-Skyactiv

  • 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque
  • 91-octane premium fuel recommended
  • The same output on both trims
  • Mazda does not publish a battery capacity figure, so we do not quote one
Charging

20% to 80% in About 90 Minutes

  • Level 2 charging from 20% to 80% in approximately 90 minutes
  • The same charging behavior on both trims
  • A depleted battery does not strand you — the gasoline engine takes over
  • No public fast-charging network is required for daily use
Drivetrain

i-ACTIV AWD®, Standard

  • i-ACTIV AWD® standard on both trims
  • Up to 3,500 lb towing
  • Lower than the gas CX-70’s 5,000 lb, a tradeoff of the battery’s weight
  • No front-wheel-drive configuration is offered
EPA Ratings

32 Miles Electric, 61 MPGe

  • 32 miles of electric-only range
  • 61 MPGe combined
  • 26 mpg on gasoline once the battery is depleted
  • The same ratings on both trims

Safety & Technology

Equipment below is listed with the trim it arrives on. The powertrain does not change between the two trims, so what separates them is comfort and technology. Availability can change during a model year — confirm the equipment on a specific vehicle with our team before you buy.

PHEV SC

The Full Powertrain From the Base Trim

The base trim carries the same 323-hp system, the same 32 miles of electric range and the same standard all-wheel drive as the trim above it. Nothing about the way this model drives is held back.

PHEV SC Plus

The Full Equipment List

The upper trim adds comfort and technology equipment. It does not add power, electric range or efficiency — all three are shared.

PHEV SC

Extended Coverage in CARB States

Because this model falls under Zero Emission Vehicle regulation, Mazda extends emission-related parts coverage to 15 years or 150,000 miles for owners in California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Vermont and Washington, alongside a separate High Voltage Battery Capacity Warranty. That is state-specific coverage, not nationwide.

PHEV SC Plus

The Same Charging Behavior

Level 2 charging from 20% to 80% takes about 90 minutes on either trim. Ask our team what charging equipment comes with a specific vehicle.

Dimensions & Capability

A five-passenger, two-row midsize SUV with the battery packaged under the floor. Every figure below is shared across both trims.

Seating

Five Passengers, Two Rows

Two rows and five seats. The gas CX-70 is the same body with an inline-six, and the CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid is the three-row version of this powertrain.

Towing

3,500 Lb

Up to 3,500 lb, lower than the gas CX-70’s 5,000-lb ceiling. If a heavy trailer is the deciding factor, that model is the one to look at.

Efficiency

61 MPGe Combined

61 MPGe combined and 26 mpg on gasoline alone, with 32 miles of electric-only range before the engine starts. EPA-rated, identical on both trims.

Warranty

3-Yr/36,000 & 5-Yr/60,000

A 3-year/36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, standard on every new Mazda, plus the CARB-state extensions described above for buyers in those states.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far can a CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid drive on electric power alone?

32 miles, EPA-rated, the same figure on both trims. After that the gasoline engine takes over at 26 mpg, so a longer trip needs no planning around charging.

How long does a CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid take to charge?

About 90 minutes from 20% to 80% on a Level 2 connection, the same on both trims. Mazda does not publish a battery capacity figure for this model, so we do not quote one.

How many CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid trims are there, and what do they cost?

Two. Pricing runs from MSRP $45,980 to MSRP $48,980, each MSRP including destination and delivery. MSRP excludes tax, title, license, the dealer documentary service fee and the tag fee — the full ladder is in the trims section above.

Why does this page not show a price for either CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid trim?

Because we will not publish a figure we cannot confirm twice over. Mazda announced a mid-year increase across the CX-70 range, gas and plug-in alike, and the live product page does not break out per-trim figures to say whether it landed. Both trims therefore read "MSRP available at the dealership" until it is signed off — ask us and we will quote the current figure on a specific vehicle.

How much can a CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid tow?

Up to 3,500 lb, lower than the gas CX-70’s 5,000-lb maximum — a tradeoff of the plug-in hybrid battery’s added weight.

Is all-wheel drive standard on the CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid?

Yes. i-ACTIV AWD® is standard on both trims — there is no front-wheel-drive version of this model.

What warranty coverage comes with a new CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid?

The standard 3-year/36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty and 5-year/60,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty every new Mazda carries. Buyers in California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Vermont and Washington also receive extended emission-related parts coverage and a separate High Voltage Battery Capacity Warranty specific to this model.
