It takes the sun two hours to “travel” from the east to the west. It is therefore no surprise that Mexico uses multiple time zones. Mexico is divided into four time zones and uses daylight savings time. So actually there are eight time zones, four for summer and four for winter. From east to west Mexico observes: Eastern Standard Time EST and Eastern Daylight Time EDT. EST is UTC -0500 and EDT is UTC -0400 Central Standard Time CST and Central Daylight Time CDT.
