Description
The Mazda CX-9 is a mid-size crossover SUV manufactured since April 2006 by Mazda in Japan. It is Mazda’s largest passenger vehicle and serves as one of the brand’s SUV with three-row seating. As of 2023, the CX-9 is positioned above the CX-8 in Mazda’s global line-up. The 2020 Mazda CX-9 SUV is a great compromise. Its sharp handling and gutsy turbocharged four-cylinder engine helps it channel Mazda’s lightweight sports car while hauling the kids or taking home groceries from the supermarket. Swooping exterior styling wraps around an interior that would look at home in a luxury car, and Mazda offers plenty of tech features that SUV buyers want most. A suite of driver assistance features is standard, and a dash-top infotainment display provides access to media, maps, and more. All this comes with a few compromises, though, as the CX-9 has one of the least roomy third rows of seats and a smaller-than-average cargo capacity.
