Mazda CX-70 PHEV Trim Levels
The fact that the Mazda CX-70 Plug-In Hybrid lineup offers two grades underscores the simple elegance of this model. The entry-level Mazda CX-70 PHEV Select Choice starts strong with upscale comfort, thoughtful design throughout, and excellent efficiency. On the other hand, the Mazda CX-70 PHEV Select Choice Plus has even more creature comforts. Let's explore both.

This base-level trim is anything but basic. It might be entry-level, but it certainly doesn't feel like it! A three-zone automatic climate control system with a pollen filter helps you breathe easily, and the power windows with one-touch up and down controls are convenient. The speed-sensing automatic door locking feature ensures everyone stays safe as the vehicle starts rolling, another convenience you don't even have to think about.
This variant also has the Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry system, a push-button ignition, paddle shifters for a customized drive, and, of course, an adjustable steering column for your comfort.
