The 2021 Mazda CX-5 follows a two-front-blade setup plus a rear blade, with sizes tailored to each windshield edge. In the United States, blade lengths are typically listed in inches. For accuracy, check your owner's manual or the blade packaging if you’re replacing them, since mounting style can vary by trim or market.
Front wiper blades: driver and passenger sizes
The front wipers on the CX-5 are different lengths to optimize coverage across the windshield. Replaceability depends on matching the lengths and the correct mounting type.
- Driver’s side blade: 26 inches
- Passenger’s side blade: 17 inches
When selecting replacements, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s mounting style (most CX-5 models use a common J-Hook or equivalent adapter) and ensure the lengths are matched for optimal sweep.
Rear wiper blade size
The CX-5’s rear wiper is a single blade that clears the tailgate area. The standard replacement size is typically 12 inches.
- Rear blade: 12 inches
If you’re ordering online or at a parts counter, double-check the exact rear blade length for your VIN, as a small variance can affect fitment.
Summary
For a 2021 Mazda CX-5, plan for front blades of 26 inches (driver) and 17 inches (passenger), plus a 12-inch rear blade. Always verify against your owner's manual or the existing blades, as aftermarket options can vary slightly in mounting and exact length.
