Step up to a more elevated driving experience with the 2026 Mazda CX-5 2.5 S Preferred at Route 9 Mazda in Poughkeepsie, NY. This AWD crossover arrives in a sophisticated Gray exterior paired with a Black Leatherette and Microsuede interior, creating a pairing of understated elegance and modern refinement that turns heads throughout the Hudson Valley. Whether you are heading to Rhinebeck for the weekend, commuting through Fishkill, or exploring the scenic stretches of the Taconic State Parkway, the CX-5 2.5 S Preferred delivers a premium experience on every road.

The Preferred trim elevates the CX-5 experience with a suite of thoughtful upgrades beginning with heated front bucket seats and a heated steering wheel - two features that Hudson Valley drivers will genuinely appreciate through the colder months. A power driver seat with memory function allows you to save your ideal seating position for quick recall, while the standard power liftgate adds real-world convenience during grocery runs or weekend adventures. The Heads-Up Display projects essential driving information directly into your line of sight, keeping your eyes on the road ahead.

Technology is rich throughout this model. The MAZDA CONNECT Infotainment System integrates Google Built-in Navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto for seamless connectivity. An 8-speaker AM/FM/HD Audio system delivers impressive sound quality throughout the cabin, and the auto-dimming rearview mirror, exterior rear parking camera, and rain-sensing wipers all contribute to a more intuitive drive. The 911 Emergency Notification system and HomeLink garage door transmitter round out a technology package that genuinely simplifies daily life.

Safety features are comprehensive and confidence-inspiring. Multiple airbag systems - including front dual impact, front side impact, overhead, rear side impact, occupant sensing, and knee airbags - provide thorough protection. ABS brakes with brake assist, Electronic Stability Control, traction control, a low tire pressure warning system, and auto high-beam headlights all work in concert to keep you and your family safe on roads from New Paltz to Kingston and every point in between.

Stylistically, the 2.5 S Preferred distinguishes itself with 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels - a full two inches larger than the Select trim - providing an assertive, premium stance. Black lug nuts and black wheel locks, a black roof rack with cross bars, heated door mirrors, turn signal indicator mirrors, and body-color bumpers with a rear spoiler combine to create a distinctive exterior presence. The leather shift knob and leather-wrapped steering wheel reinforce the upscale feel inside the cabin, and dual-zone automatic climate control ensures personalized comfort for every passenger.

Four-wheel independent suspension with front and rear anti-roll bars, speed-sensing steering, and telescoping and tilt-adjustable steering wheel tuning put the driver firmly in command of every curve. The split-folding rear seat expands versatility as needed, making this CX-5 equally suited to daily commutes and longer road trips across the beautiful Hudson Valley region.
