True: Mazda used a Toyota engine at least for one specific model. The Mazda 2025 CX-50 Hybrid is that specific model, which uses a proven Toyota Hybrid powertrain- the engine, transmission, and hybrid technology all come from a Toyota that was found in the RAV4 Hybrid. Mazda partnered with Toyota mainly for Hybrid technology.
Toyota is a leader in hybrid technology, and instead of starting everything from scratch, Mazda uses Toyota’s proven system to save time, reduce costs, and improve fuel efficiency. However, this collaboration is not representative of all Mazda vehicles, as the majority utilise Mazda’s own engines.
The Toyota-powered CX-50 Hybrid is a specific case born out of the two companies’ close relationship. Toyota owns 5.05% of Mazda, and the two companies have collaborated on shared models and hybrid technology over the years, including a Toyota-hybrid-powered Mazda 3 sold only in Japan.
