Used 2024 Mazda CX-50 for Sale nearWeatherford, TX

How much does the 2024 Mazda CX-50 cost?

Prices have softened 2.91% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,088 listings available, which suggests you should have a workable selection to compare.

If you find a listing below $25,837.64, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2024 Mazda CX-50 a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Mazda CX-50 earns a 6.83/5 user rating and a 6.83/10 expert rating.

The model scores 8/10 across Look and feel and Safety.

It stands out as a small crossover SUV that balances rugged styling with everyday usability, and it is aimed at more outdoorsy buyers who want a compact SUV with standard all-wheel drive and a classy interior design. The trade-offs are clear: performance is fairly pedestrian, and the model is described as poor value for money.

Cons: Fairly pedestrian performance; poor value for money.

With 30.7% of listings priced as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Mazda CX-50 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The CX-50 is presented as a well-rounded compact crossover with standard all-wheel drive and a straightforward powertrain lineup, which supports a low-drama ownership experience. Its warranty coverage is comparable to many mainstream Japanese and American rivals, and the base engine returns reasonable fuel economy for the class.

The base model’s 27 mpg combined rating is respectable, and the turbo engine’s 25 mpg combined figure is still usable if you want more power. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that higher-trim versions can bring more noise, more complexity, and less compelling value.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Mazda CX-50?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a higher-trim or turbo model. Focus on tire wear, brake condition, and signs of hard use, since this crossover is positioned for active lifestyles and may have seen more demanding driving.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: Lower trims get 17-inch wheels, while higher grades move to 20-inch wheels; the Meridian Edition adds all-terrain tires, a black hood graphic, and more pronounced rocker-panel trim, but base models’ manually adjustable front seats are a reminder of the CX-50’s mainstream positioning.
• Powertrain: All models use a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, with turbocharging on higher trim levels; the base engine makes 187 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque, while the turbo version is rated at 256 hp and 320 lb-ft on 93-octane fuel or 227 hp and 310 lb-ft on 87-octane fuel.
• Safety package: Standard driver-assist tech includes automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, lane-departure warning, a driver attention monitor, and emergency lane-keeping with road-keep assist; rear automatic braking, traffic-jam assist, and a 360-degree camera system are optional.
• Infotainment: A 10.25-inch infotainment screen is standard, wireless Apple CarPlay is standard, Android Auto requires a cable, and higher trims add wireless phone charging, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a 12-speaker Bose audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The base non-turbo engine gets 27 mpg combined (24 mpg city, 30 mpg highway), while the turbocharged engine gets 25 mpg combined (23 mpg city, 29 mpg highway).

Which 2024 Mazda CX-50 trim should I buy?

The 2024 Mazda CX-50 is offered in 8 trim levels: 2.5 S Select, 2.5 S Preferred, 2.5 S Premium, 2.5 S Premium Plus, 2.5 Turbo, 2.5 Turbo Meridian Edition, 2.5 Turbo Premium, and 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus.

Here's the short version:

• 2.5 S Select: This is the entry point, and it gives you the CX-50’s core appeal — rugged styling, standard all-wheel drive, and the basic equipment set — but it also reflects Mazda’s upmarket strategy with a relatively high starting price.
• 2.5 S Preferred: This is the trim to target if you want a better balance of equipment and value without jumping into turbo pricing; it should make the CX-50 feel more complete while staying closer to the lower end of the range.
• 2.5 S Premium: This is a sensible middle step if you want more comfort and convenience features than the lower trims, but you still do not need turbo power.
• 2.5 S Premium Plus: Choose this if you want a more fully equipped non-turbo CX-50 and are willing to pay for it; it is the most upscale path before moving into turbo territory.
• 2.5 Turbo: This is the best choice if you care most about stronger acceleration and towing capability, since the turbo engine raises output and increases towing capacity to 3,500 pounds.
• 2.5 Turbo Meridian Edition: Pick this if you want the most outdoorsy look, with all-terrain tires, a black hood graphic, and more pronounced rocker-panel trim; it is more about image and character than added off-road hardware.
• 2.5 Turbo Premium: This is the better-value turbo choice if you want the stronger engine and more equipment without stretching all the way to the top trim.
• 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus: Buy this only if you want the most fully loaded CX-50 and are comfortable paying near the top of the range.

The safety package is strong across the lineup, but rear automatic braking, traffic-jam assist, and a 360-degree camera remain optional rather than standard.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Mazda CX-50?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 30.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,088 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.91% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 91.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $25,837.64, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Mazda CX-50's resale value?

The current average of $28,093 sits slightly below last year's $28,936.

That softer pricing suggests the CX-50 has already moved off its earlier peak, which can help you as a buyer but may limit upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy at the right price, you reduce the risk of taking an immediate depreciation hit. Stronger trims and well-kept examples should hold up better than overpriced listings, especially when the market is already showing some softness.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Mazda CX-50 safe?

The CX-50 was named a 2023 Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and it received five-star frontal crash-test and four-star rollover crash-test ratings from NHTSA.

It earns a 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Mazda’s standard driver-assistance suite includes automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, lane-departure warning, a driver attention monitor, and emergency lane-keeping with road-keep assist. Rear automatic braking, traffic-jam assist, and a 360-degree camera system are optional, so you should confirm whether a used example has the features you want.

The main caveat is that the standard headlights were only rated “Average,” and the nighttime pedestrian-prevention result was the weakest part of the safety evaluation.

Should I buy a 2024 Mazda CX-50 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 30.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.91% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It pairs rugged styling with standard all-wheel drive and a classy interior.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $26,747, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $28,093 average.
• It emphasizes active-lifestyle design with practical space and a fun-to-drive character.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $30,496, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $28,093 average.
• It adds a hybrid powertrain that improves efficiency and broadens the CX-50’s appeal.

The bottom line: If you want the current-year CX-50’s mix of rugged styling, standard AWD, and strong safety, the 2024 is the cleanest target. If price matters most, the 2023 is the value play; if efficiency matters more, the 2025 is the better long-term fit.
