2025 MAZDA CX-5 Premium Plus

The 2025 Mazda CX-5 is listed by the auction with a **PERMIT SALVAGE** condition and **FRONT END** as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end collision damage supports the auction’s FRONT END code; however, the PERMIT SALVAGE status cannot be confirmed from photos alone. The vehicle has extensive damage concentrated at the front. The hood is severely creased, folded, and deformed, with its front edge raised and irregular. The front bumper cover and fascia are crushed and distorted, with irregular gaps and damaged surfaces. The center grille is broken and displaced, leaving open areas that expose components behind it. The headlamp assembly on the left side of the image is missing or extensively broken, with internal components exposed. The front fender at the damaged corner is heavily folded around the wheel opening. Its plastic wheel-arch liner is detached and hanging away from the fender, exposing parts of the inner wheel well. The photographs do not establish the condition of components behind the visible damage, including the cooling, suspension, steering, structural, electrical, or driver-assistance systems. Both front airbags are deployed. An expanded driver airbag is visible through the steering wheel, and the passenger-side dashboard airbag panel is open with the airbag fabric exposed near the windshield. The restraint and airbag systems will require detailed inspection and repair assessment. According to the NHTSA VIN decode, this is a Japan-built 2025 Mazda CX-5 Premium Plus Sport Utility Vehicle with 4WD, a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a six-speed automatic transmission. The decoded safety equipment includes front, side, and curtain airbags, seat-belt pretensioners, ABS, electronic stability control, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping and lane-departure systems, forward-collision warning, and rear cross-traffic alert. The operational condition of these systems cannot be determined from the provided findings.
