A Mazda CX-5 SUV rental with premium polish
Drive a CX-5
A Mazda CX-5 SUV rental puts you in the all-new 2026 generation of Mazda's five-seat compact SUV, with all-wheel drive standard. It's a polished pick for everyday errands and longer escapes alike, and you can compare it with other Mazda rentals on Turo.
On Turo, a car rental marketplace, you choose the exact CX-5 you want from a local vehicle owner. Compare listings by year, location, and dates, then arrange a pickup that fits your plans.

Composed, confident handling
Refined, responsive handling is the CX-5's signature strength, thanks to Mazda's G-Vectoring Control Plus (part of its Skyactiv-Vehicle Dynamics) for a settled, sure feel through corners. A 187 hp Skyactiv-G 2.5L four-cylinder pairs with a six-speed automatic. Standard i-Activ AWD on every trim means grip is never an upgrade.
More cabin and cargo space
The 2026 CX-5 gives you more room to spread out. The all-new generation rides on a longer body and wheelbase, which opens up extra rear-seat space. Passengers in back get more breathing room on longer drives — a welcome upgrade for road trips.
Cargo space grows, too. You get 33.7 cu ft behind the second row and up to 66.5 cu ft with the rear seats folded. That's room for suitcases, a stroller, or a weekend's worth of gear without a game of trunk Tetris.
Big screens and Google built-in
Tech takes a big step forward in the 2026 CX-5. A 12.9-inch touchscreen comes standard, and the top trim offers an available 15.6-inch display. Either way, your maps, music, and calls sit front and center on a big, easy-to-read screen.
The CX-5 is also the first Mazda with Google built-in, a handy perk when you're finding your way around a new city. Prefer your own phone setup? Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain available, so your playlists and favorite apps come along for the ride.
Stand out with a CX-5
The CX-5 hits a sweet spot for travelers who want comfort and capability without the bulk of a full-size SUV. It suits couples, small families, and weekend getaways, plus city-to-suburb trips where easy parking matters. Compare it with other SUV rentals near you to find your fit.
Top CX-5 features
Standard driver-assist tech
Three standouts define the CX-5: standard driver-assist tech, AWD on every trim, and an all-new generation.
Every 2026 CX-5 comes with Mazda's i-Activsense driver-assist technology as standard. The suite includes Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Rear Automatic Emergency Braking, among other systems.
That extra set of eyes pays off when you're driving in a city you don't know. Blind Spot Monitoring helps you change lanes on busy highways with more confidence. Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Rear Automatic Emergency Braking add support as you back out of a tight spot in a crowded parking garage.
AWD on every trim
All-wheel drive comes standard on every 2026 CX-5, so you never have to hunt for the right trim. Mazda's i-Activ AWD is standard on the 2.5 S, Select, Preferred, Premium, and Premium Plus.
That's good news for all-weather trips, especially in fall and winter. Rainy commutes, snowy ski weekends, and winding mountain highways all call for steady traction, and the CX-5 brings it on every trim. Whichever 2026 CX-5 you book for your winter getaway, AWD comes along — every time.
An all-new third generation
The 2026 CX-5 kicks off an all-new third generation. Mazda stretched the body and the wheelbase, which adds rear-seat room and a larger cargo area. The 2027 CX-5 carries the same generation forward.
Listings on Turo can include several model years, so check the year if you want the redesign. The roomier back seat and bigger cargo area are worth it. Mazda has said a hybrid is planned for the future, but the 2026 lineup sticks with the Skyactiv-G 2.5L four-cylinder.
