Huge nope. Looks like all the climate controls are now a touch screen. Number one turn off of a car for me these days is converting easily usable analog controls that can be identified and manipulated by feel into touch screen controls that are often nested in menus requiring one to look to find what you want to chnage.
HORRIBLE trend. That is NOT a good path for any car manufacturer to be doing. Mazda should know better.

Apparently only on the higher trims, right?
I understood ALL CX-5's will have the new touchscreen interface. Have you seen something different?
All, it will be 12.9” an all basic and mid range trims and bloody TV from living room on highest ones.

I think I was thinking of this (from https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a65351814/2026-mazda-cx-5-revealed/). My emphasis:
Am I a rare bird? I hate seeing fingerprints on the screen. It’s even worse when the sun hits it at certain angles. For this reason, I love the Commander knob and will miss it. All my controlling is next to my leg or on the steering wheel. I don’t have to reach a touchscreen. I keep a soft cloth in the car in case I don’t catch my passenger’s finger in time. That said, all the other cars I would consider require me to use the screen.
I had to drive a Tesla a few times and didn’t enjoy their button free environment. I ended up using the Voice Control interface to do simple tasks like closing the sunroof or adjusting the fan speed. I can’t even get my Mazda to understand me trying to enter an address into the navigation.

Ten percent of total CX-5 sales (and the most expensive models to boot) is a significant portion of market share... not the direction you want to head in a very competitive segment with your most popular model.
There was also someone on Reddit at the time of the CX-5 announcement that mentioned the lower trims would have some manual controls. That would make some sense as the lower trims don't have automatic climate control and manual climate control would be difficult to operate only through a screen.

I guess you'll need to keep a microfiber cloth and a small spray bottle handy with a non-damaging cleaner that leaves no residue. That means no alcohol, no ammonia.
Rinseless Wash is my recommendation. I use two: DIY Detail for every surface in the interior, and Armour Detail on the exterior because it has better lubrication for our delicate paint. These formulas are the bees knees and more people need to know about them.
We will find out once the detailed trim levels are released in Europe this fall.

No. Nothing like as sleek as the CX-50.
