Driving the 2026 Mazda CX-70 in Tustin
You’ll test your CX-70 in the course of a week and find the SUV’s specifications more than adequate for it. There is 75.3 cu. ft. of cargo room to be had with the second row down, which is plenty for a cooler or some gear and bikes on a hike or mountain bike outing at Peters Canyon Regional Park over the weekend, no roof box required. The two-row dimensions and AWD that come as standard are an asset in a tight parking lot when you are about to do some errands at The District in Tustin Legacy or head to Tustin Marketplace off Jamboree Road, you’ll appreciate the traction in these parts during a damp SoCal winter.
The morning stop-and-go runs to work after a drop at Tustin High on Red Hill Avenue, something the five-seat CX-70 and its AWD grip take in their stride. If a Saturday afternoon takes you to Old Town Tustin for coffee or a stroll through the historic downtown, the CX-70’s two-row footprint is easier to park on those narrower streets than a three-row model would be. As for fuel economy, all trims are EPA-rated at 25 mpg combined, the 280-hp and 340-hp engines alike. When it’s time to head to Mazda of Orange, the drive from Tustin covers 8 miles.
