CX-50 Hybrid coming this fall

I found the combined torque is 252 lb-ft from this link, that's more like it. Electric motors adding almost 90 lb-ft.

Good to hear and may trade my mine next year for better mileage

I would be more interested in the base model as I don’t need leather seats and the cloth in my cx5 is more than up to the job in 40 degree heat here in Halifax and when it gets freezing in winter.

This is a great video on the Toyota planetary gear CVT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHc-_E8
xWnM I've had good results with it in a Prius Prime for 70,000 miles.

The Canadian Mazda site says that the turbo CX-50 will have the 2.5T Mazda Sky-Activ engine. They don't say which 2.5 normally aspirated engine will be in the other CX-50, Mazda or Toyota.

I want a CX-50 hybrid!

What was expected, and that video you posted confirmed, it's the all-Toyota drivetrain in the hybrid CX-50.

The non-hybrids (NA and Turbo) have the same Mazda engines they've had since introduction.

Sounds like it'll be a winner! Though the hit to rear legroom is concerning..

Saw one at my local dealer yesterday. I was browsing the lot while the airbag recall was being performed on my Miata.

It was weird seeing HYBRID on the rear hatch vs the Skyactiv emblem.
