2026 Buick Envision vs. MAZDA CX-50

There are now many excellent models in the compact SUV class. While it's great to have a big selection, this can make it tough to figure out which one to buy. If you are having trouble deciding between the 2026 Buick Envision and Mazda CX-50, we want to help. Here Lunghamer Buick GMC shows how they match-up in four essential areas.

Power

Do you like to really feel the muscle of a car when you put the gas pedal down? If so, you'll love what the 2026 Buick Envision offers. Under its hood is a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that pumps out 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The Mazda CX-50 can't compete, as its 2.5-liter, four-cylinder only produces 187 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque.

Passenger Space

If you searching for a vehicle with lots of cabin space, the 2026 Buick Envision is it. Perfect for families, it has two roomy rows that accommodate up to five people. Plus, there is plenty of room in the back of this new Buick SUV for adults. The Mazda CX-50 also seats five, but if you have to put three adults in the back, it will be a tight squeeze.

Comfort Amenities

While practical features are nice, those shouldn't be the only things your vehicle offers. The 2026 Buick Envision has a luxurious interior with ultra-comfortable seats coated in synthetic leather upholstery. It also comes with a power-adjustable driver's seat with memory settings and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The Mazda CX-50 is more of a "function over form" SUV, and its standard components don't include a power-adjustable driver's seat or memory settings.

Technology Features

If you drive a lot, you probably want your vehicle to keep you connected wherever you go. Thanks to wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, an available Wi-Fi® hot spot, and wireless device charging, the 2026 Buick Envision makes this easy. Plus, its infotainment touchscreen and a digital gauge cluster are combined into a bold 30-inch display. The Mazda CX-50 has similar features, but its dashboard consists of a 10.25-inch partial touchscreen and a seven-inch driver information display.
