Production of the 2023 Mazda CX-50 has already begun at Mazda’s new plant in Huntsville, Alabama. The first-even U.S.-built vehicle rolled off the assembly line on January 26, 2022.
The automaker has started production of the 2023 Mazda CX-50. This is the fruit of a partnership between Toyota and Mazda. The model is specifically made for North America, according to Mazda Newsroom.
The standard equipment of the new crossover includes the latest i-Activ All-Wheel Drive technology and a new Mazda Intelligent Drive Select, or Mi-Drive to select drive modes. The Skyactiv-G 2.5 naturally aspirated and turbo engines will be available at launch, mated to a responsive 6-speed automatic transmission.
At a later time, the CX-50 will be offered with electrified powertrains including a conventional hybrid.
The cabin is driver-focused, functional, and comfortable. In particular, it features Mazda’s first-ever panoramic moonroof. The CX-50 proportions and its cargo space are good for placing and securing common outdoor equipment.
