What Are the Differences Between the Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5?

If you are looking for an affordable compact crossover, this 2018 Toyota RAV4 vs 2018 Mazda CX-5 comparison will fit the bill. With a starting price that stands at just $24,410, a spacious, family-friendly cabin and a wealth of standard features, the Toyota RAV4 promises an elite level of value at every turn. Mazda CX-5 models possess a similar price tag that starts at $24,150.

An athletic performance is a trademark of the compact crossover class and the Toyota RAV4 delivers on all counts. Armed with a reliable 176-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood, the Toyota RAV4 promises plenty of excitement. Married to a six-speed automatic transmission, the front-wheel drive Toyota RAV4 will make 23 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway. When equipped with Dynamic Torque Control AWD, the Toyota RAV4 will make 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.

The refined 2018 Mazda CX-5 employs a 187-horsepower 2.5-liter SKYACTIV®-G four-cylinder engine that is paired with a six-speed SKYACTIV®-Drive automatic transmission. With class-exclusive cylinder deactivation technology, the front-wheel drive Mazda CX-5 will still only make 31 mpg on the highway. Innovative i-ACTIV AWD® is available to improve performance when faced with inclement weather.

With an impressive towing capacity and an available hybrid powertrain, the 2018 Toyota RAV4 provides a significant advantage in this comparison. All-new Toyota RAV4 Adventure models employ a standard Tow Prep Package that allows the Toyota crossover to tow up to 3,500 pounds. If you value efficient fuel economy, the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid will deliver with a 194-horsepower Hybrid Synergy Drive that is paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission to make 34 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway.

Inside the 2018 Toyota RAV4 cabin, you will enjoy a cavernous 38.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row that will expand to 73.4 cubic feet with the rear seats laid flat – numbers that the Mazda CX-5 cannot match. If technology is at the top of your wish list, Toyota RAV4 editions employ a standard 6.1-inch Toyota Entune touchscreen display with Bluetooth technology and a standard rearview camera to keep you entertained no matter where your next adventure may take you.
