To make a name for yourself as a maker of fine new SUVs isn’t something that comes easily. In a world saturated by the popular SUV machine Mazda have gained immense popularity. There is a steadily growing population of people that have sampled and bought into Mazda’s SUV way of life. There are many CX models in the stable to choose from; however the latest Mazda CX-9 has definitely augmented itself as a fine, large luxury SUV with premium comfort, space and safety.
The 2020 Mazda CX-9 also looks great. New Mazda vehicles are far from being plain and unexaggerated. Their sleek styling has substance, and with the new CX-9 you get muscle and elegance that is both striking and likable. The 2020 Mazda CX-9 SUV cuts an elegant figure on the road, thanks largely to the design team’s superb efforts that uses the ‘KODO – Soul of Motion’ blueprint.
Leading the charge in gallantry style, the new Mazda CX-9 boasts all the premium safety equipment you’ll need, and it’s all there to keep its occupants safe. Get a load of some of the safety features you’ll find in a new Mazda CX-9 SUV. These features include: Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Mazda Radar Cruise Control, Advanced Smart City Brake Support with Pedestrian Detection, High Beam Control, a Lane Departure Warning system, Lane-Keep Assist, Smart Brake Support with Collision Warning, an Adaptive Front-Lighting system and Traffic Sign Recognition. These are superior safety features that will help avoid an accident in the first place.
Some of the other safety features that give the solid SUV loads of protection, particularly if things get pear shaped, include: multiple airbag systems, an anti-lock braking system (ABS), roll stability control, brake assist, dynamic stability control and side-impact door beams. Other nice features that your the CX-9 offers are things like hill launch assist, traffic alert, a rear-view camera system and a tire pressure monitoring system – and there are loads more features as well.
A new Mazda CX-9 is a three-row SUV that seats its occupants in roomy comfort. It offers an incredible number of high-tech features and options to choose form. Thanks to having four available trim levels, you’ll be able to get all the technology features and options you want when buying a 2020 Mazda CX-9. A 9-inch colour touchscreen display, a Bose 12-speaker audio system, the MAZDA CONNECT® infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity, satellite radio, navigation, USB ports and zoned climate control are just some of the cool items you’ll enjoy if you drive away in a CX-9.
The refined CX-9 interior offers loads of nice comfort features and options, and depending on the model, it’ll include luxury items like: second-row captain’s chairs, three-zone automatic climate control, a power sliding-glass moonroof, power windows and locks, push-button start, keyless entry, a hands-free power rear lift-gate with programmable height adjustment, leather seats, heated front seats, power driver’s seat with 2-position memory and ventilated front seats.
Not impoverished on space, a Mazda CX-9 heralds plenty of head, leg and shoulder room throughout the cabin. Three rows accommodate seven, and there is a concert hall-like ascending height from the front to the back so that forward visibility for third row passengers remains excellent. With all seats in the upright position, the 2020 Mazda CX-9 features 408 litres of boot space. When the third row of seats is folded down, that space more than doubles to 1082 litres. And yes, it gets better; you can fold down the middle row and the third row to maximize your cargo space and access as much as 2016 litres. Of course, this reduces the occupant capacity to just the two of you, but you know now that this vehicle is all about practicality and is so suitable for family life. It’s as versatile-an SUV as it gets.
Ride and handling for the big CX is more than competent, and the steering accurately delivers the driver with good feedback. The Mazda CX-9 is a big SUV that won’t wobble like jelly even when pushed through a set of twisty corners. It’s an impressable set-up that offers accomplished ride comfort and some decent road holding. This rides and handles with the best of them. Choose FWD or AWD, and with Mazda’s handling team you’ll get a really nice large SUV with optimum handling skills.
Another aspect of the new Mazda CX-9 that I really like is the imperceptible changes between gears. The state-of-the-art four-cylinder Mazda engine features a dynamic pressure turbocharger, 16 valves and variable valve timing. The way the engine provides ideal torque and efficiency to the sweet six-speed automatic transmission is so smooth and satisfying. You can even put the auto into manual shift mode or sport mode, which ensures that maximum power is at your right foot when needed. The 2.5-litre turbo-petrol is a masterclass in smooth, lusty response, and with 186 kW and 434 Nm of torque available, this is a wonderful drive for a big SUV. Mazda CX-9’s engine design uses an advanced Direct Injection fuel system that also helps give you impressive fuel efficiency while driving in the city or on the highway.
Mazda has got all the fundamentals right with the 2020 CX-9 SUV; so-much-so that with the blend of massive space, excellent comfort, premium infotainment and safety, the great performing flagship SUV for Mazda is well worth the money spent. Boasting a 5-year/unlimited km warranty, the new CX-9 is a highly recommended and very desirable new SUV.
