Huntington Beach Mazda - Why the CX-70 3.3 Turbo S Premium Feels Tailor-Made for Coastal Drives around Huntington Beach, CA

If you are searching for an SUV that feels planted, premium, and genuinely rewarding to drive, the Mazda CX-70 3.3 Turbo S Premium belongs at the top of your list. Built on a rear-biased architecture with standard i-Activ AWD®, the S Premium trim adds a 340-hp e-SKYACTIV G 3.3L Inline 6 Turbo, an eight-speed automatic, and Mi-Drive modes that sharpen responses for the open road or stabilize traction for dirt paths to trailheads. The result is a midsize two-row SUV that balances composure with everyday comfort, whether navigating weekday traffic or carving a scenic byway. A machine-cut finish on the 21-inch black metal finish wheels complements the trim’s refined stance, while Kinematic Posture Control helps the vehicle settle confidently during cornering without fuss.

Inside, the S Premium leans into craftsmanship. Nappa leather seating, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, retractable rear sunshades, and a power panoramic sunroof create a calming environment. A 12.3-inch Mazda Connect center display anchors the dashboard and responds to touch when you are using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The system pairs with Alexa Built-In for hands-free convenience at home or on the move. A 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, Active Driving Display, Bose 12-speaker audio, and wireless phone charging elevate day-to-day ease. The Driver Personalization System and a power tilt-and-telescopic steering column with memory go a step further by adjusting key settings to fit you seamlessly.

Confidence tech is deep and thoughtfully integrated. A 360° View Monitor with See-Through View helps you peer around close obstacles at low speeds, and the Trailer Hitch View makes lining up a tow ball feel straightforward. i-Activsense® driver-assistance features include Smart Brake Support with Front Crossing and Turn-Across Traffic, Smart Brake Support Rear with pedestrian detection, Cruising & Traffic Support, Driver Monitoring, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Front and Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and more. This is an SUV that supports you attentively while keeping the focus on a natural driving rhythm.

Drivers who appreciate a quiet, composed commute but still want headroom for long road trips, towing up to 5,000 pounds with Mazda Genuine Towing Accessories, and the kind of steering feel that makes every turn satisfying.
