Nissan Rogue versus MAZDA CX-5

June 20th, 2025 by

2025 Mazda CX-5

They’re both crossover SUVs, so it’s no surprise many drivers compare the Nissan Rogue versus Mazda CX-5. If you’re looking for raw performance, rugged capability, or advanced features, though, the Mazda SUV pulls ahead. Don’t take our word for it; compare these features for yourself at El Dorado Mazda.

All-Wheel Drive

If you’re taking your SUV down dusty paths in Texas, the 2025 Mazda CX-5 will get you farther. All-wheel drive comes standard on the Mazda SUV, and with the advanced i-Activ® AWD system, it can even automatically adjust to a loss of slippage. All-wheel drive is optional for the 2025 Nissan Rogue, and the system also isn’t quite as refined as the one found in the Mazda model.

Turbocharged Performance

With the available turbocharged engine, the 2025 Mazda CX-5 leaves the competition in the dust. Every 2025 Nissan Rogue delivers up to 201 horsepower, which can’t keep up with the dominant 256 horsepower of the turbocharged 2025 Mazda CX-5 trims. If you’re looking to pass on the highway, the Mazda SUV will make it easier.

Adaptive Cruise Control

If you want Intelligent Cruise Control on the 2025 Nissan Rogue, you’ll need to add it as an available feature. Every 2025 Mazda CX-50 comes with Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go™, a cutting-edge cruise control system that makes driving easier. With this system engaged, you’ll always have the ideal space cushion, even in rush hour traffic.
