The same 2e, 3e and 5e were trademarked in Japan as well. All at the same time but separate from the 6e trademark.

What I found interesting is that they did not register a trademark for the CX-30e. I wonder if they are considering repositioning the CX-30, enlarging it somewhat to become a variant of the CX-5. Possibly a more sloped CX-5. This is just total speculation on my part.

The comment from Mazda Australia did not confirm a name change, only that they don’t know what the replacement will be called. Mazda has registered in Europe this week new trademarks and it looks like the CX-5 name will continue.

It is interesting that the software update was a noticeable improvement over the CX-70 as well. I presume the CX-70 has or will get the same software update.

I don't believe Mazda will do any CVT with their Hybrid. I do hope they have a new 8sp Auto.

Someone needs to get a picture of the rear suspension so that we can see if they have gone to Torsion Beam with the CX-5.

Some clear photos of the camouflaged next-gen CX-5. It is not a radical departure from the existing CX-5, although there are some changes to the rear. You can tell from the rear window that there will definitely be more headroom, with less slope to the roof...

Mazda's CEO mentioned in an interview that they are developing a new CUV for the Asian and Japan market. This will likely be a smaller CUV but I wonder if this means the next gen CX30 will increase in size for other markets. https://newswitch.jp/p/44224

It looks like Japan wanted a shorter wheel-base coupe styling, while Mazda North America wanted the same wheelbase and styling as the CX-90. https://www.carsales.com.au/editorial/details/mazda-cx-70-cx-60-were-almost-coupes-147992/

Driving reviews are out today. https://www.roadandtrack.com/reviews/a62762509/2025-mazda-cx50-hybrid-tested/

Driving reviews embargo will be lifted on Nov 12th. We will see full reviews next week.

It looks like dealers were provided an update in Frankfurt this week. The CX-5 is expected next August and would be available initially with the 2.5L NA, with the Hybrid and Plug-in models to arrive a bit later. The only other additional detail provided was that the length would increase by...

I am interesting in seeing what Mazda does for the rear suspension (torsion vs multi-link) and the transmission. I hope they keep the Multi-link and go to 8 speed transmission. For the sizing of the CX-5, a lot will depend on how they also want to position the CX-30. If the CX-30 gets...

It looks like this was commented on yesterday by Mazda's CTO, Ichiro Hirose. They are referring to Mazda's Calendar or Fiscal year, not US model year. https://newswitch.jp/p/42842

I think the title of this thread should be updated to 2026 as it’s intend was to discus the next gen CX-5. For the next gen CX-5, Mazda is planning to reduce trims by 70%. https://www.netdenjd.com/articles/-/306662

not sure but I suspect it would work the same way as the RAV4.

This torque is only from the engine. When electric motor and Engine are both in use then it would be more than that. The RAV4 hybrid has the same output as the CX-50 and it does 0-60 in 7.4s, splitting the difference between the Turbo 0-60 and the NA 0-60. That is plenty for a traditional Hybrid.

That would seem to be correct. Mazda likely wanted to introduce something unique for the Hybrid. It will be available on the non-hybrid the following year.
