Mazda CX-50 Meridian Edition review and specs
The 2024 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Meridian Edition blends off road flair with city usability. It weighs 3,838 pounds with 256 horsepower from a 2.5L turbo engine, 6 speed automatic, and 110.8 inch wheelbase. Notable visuals include 18 inch Falken Wildpeak tires and matte hood graphic, while interior offers Mazda Connect with 10.3 inch screen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bose option, and a stiff ride on rough tires. Ground clearance and underbody protection limit true off roading, but cargo and seating remain strong for five. Tim Banse notes the Meridian accelerates to 60 mph in under seven seconds and stops from 60 in 115 feet, with adaptive cruise, lane keeping, and automatic emergency braking as standard. Three year/36,000 mile basic warranty, five year/60,000 mile powertrain.

ECON mode in Honda CR-V raises fuel savings with gentler drive
ECON mode tweaks throttle response and shifts to lower RPM, reducing fuel use while maintaining power when needed. It can boost mileage slightly, especially at highway speeds, and may extend engine life by encouraging smoother driving. It's safe to use continuously unless you need more acceleration or heat-assisted comfort.
