The midsize SUV market is booming, offering active families vehicles that combine versatility and refinement. The all-new 2025 Mazda CX-70 arrives with a bold proposition: electrified powertrains and affordable luxury that redefine the premium SUV segment. Against the 2025 Hyundai Palisade, a popular contender praised for its hybrid efficiency and style, the Mazda CX-70 stands out as the obvious choice, delivering a superior driving experience and undeniable prestige.
The 2025 Mazda CX-70 stands out with its range of electrified powertrains that blend performance and efficiency, delivering a more dynamic and refined driving experience. At the heart of its offering are turbocharged inline six-cylinder engines paired with a 48-volt mild hybrid (MHEV) system, producing an impressive output of up to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. A plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version is also available, combining a 2.5-liter gasoline engine and an electric motor for robust combined power and the ability to drive fully electric over a significant distance—ideal for daily commutes. These powertrains are mated to a new 8-speed automatic transmission, ensuring fast and smooth gear changes.
The 2025 Hyundai Palisade, on the other hand, is generally powered by a 3.8-liter V6 engine producing 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission. While the Palisade offers a reliable and adequate powertrain for a family SUV, it cannot compete with the superior power and torque of the CX-70’s electrified engines, especially in its turbo six-cylinder and plug-in hybrid configurations. The CX-70 delivers a sense of dynamism, responsiveness, and refinement that the competent yet less spirited Palisade cannot match.
Towing capacity is an important criterion for active families, and the Mazda CX-70 excels in this area, showcasing its superior versatility. Versions equipped with the powerful turbocharged six-cylinder engines can tow up to 5,000 pounds (about 2,268 kg) when properly equipped. This is more than enough for most campers, small boats, or ATV trailers, offering plenty of freedom for outdoor adventures.
The 2025 Hyundai Palisade also offers a respectable towing capacity, often up to 5,000 pounds (about 2,268 kg) when properly equipped. While both are capable, the CX-70 delivers this capability with a more sophisticated powertrain and driving dynamics that make towing more serene. The CX-70 emphasizes engineering that combines strength with a more refined driving experience.
The cabin of the 2025 Mazda CX-70 is filled with luxury and intuitive technology, exceeding expectations in its class. You’ll find high-quality materials, such as Nappa leather, genuine wood accents, and metallic finishes, creating a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere. A large central infotainment screen (often 12.3 inches), a digital instrument cluster, and a customizable head-up display keep information within easy reach. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and the attention to ergonomic details ensures superior comfort for all occupants.
The 2025 Hyundai Palisade also offers a well-equipped interior with a large touchscreen and digital dashboard, as well as modern connectivity features and numerous USB ports for families. Its design is elegant and provides a good level of comfort. However, the CX-70 takes refinement further, offering superior material quality, greater attention to detail, and an overall sense of prestige that the competent Palisade cannot quite match. The CX-70 is designed to envelop passengers in first-class comfort, making every journey a truly luxurious experience.
In conclusion, while the 2025 Hyundai Palisade remains a spacious and well-equipped family SUV, the 2025 Mazda CX-70 clearly stands out as the distinguished choice for Quebec families and drivers who refuse to compromise on quality, luxury, and driving pleasure. Its perfect blend of powerful electrified powertrain, appreciable towing capacity, and affordable luxury puts it at the top of its class. The CX-70 redefines the premium SUV, offering a more dynamic driving experience and an unmatched level of refinement. It’s the vehicle that gives you more—on every level.
