Performance is an important element to any vehicle, especially so when you’re talking about a family SUV. The same motor is used to power the Mazda CX-90 in each of its respective trim levels, yet one version of the engine produces more power than the other.

The core motor is an e-Skyactiv®-G 3.3L Turbo Inline 6 engine. The standard outputs measure 280 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. If you step up to the more powerful version of this engine, though, the horsepower peaks at 340 and the torque reaches a strong 369 lb-ft.

A mild hybrid electric motor supports the gasoline engine, boosting the efficiency and overall power of the SUV. An i-Activ AWD® system will help you put the power to the ground while providing the best fuel economy, measuring an EPA-estimated 24 city/28 highway MPG.^*

A model like the Mazda CX-90, which strives to provide the best family experience possible, has to come with an inviting and versatile interior. Mazda made it a priority to build a cabin which is upscale but also usable.

Headroom in each of the three rows measures 39.7 inches in the front, 39.3 inches in the middle seats, and 36.9 inches in the rear. There’s also generous legroom to the tune of 41.7 inches up front, 39.4 inches in the middle, and 30.4 inches for those in the very back.

Technology in the cabin is abundant and comes in the form of features such as:

Listening to music or a podcast is a joy thanks to the available Bose® Centerpoint® Surround Sound System with AudioPilot® and 12 speakers. As for interior niceties, you can enjoy heated and ventilated seats, quilted Nappa leather-trimmed seats, a leather-wrapped shift knob, a heated steering wheel, and second-row retractable window shades with an upgrade to a higher trim.

The victory of the CX-90 in Car and Driver's 'Three-Row SUV Throwdown' is a testament to the remarkable strides Mazda has made in the competitive SUV market. Its triumph over prominent rivals like the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, Honda Pilot, Toyota Grand Highlander, and Kia Telluride underscores the CX-90's exceptional qualities. This achievement has sparked excitement within the automotive community and among potential buyers alike. As we delve deeper into the details of the CX-90's impressive performance and innovative features, it becomes clear that Mazda is a formidable new contender in the three-row SUV segment. This page provides an opportunity to delve into the reasons behind the CX-90's success and its impact on the SUV market, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in this exciting newcomer.

Large SUVs are vessels of opportunity. Their spacious interiors leave room for cargo of all types, like camping supplies, sandy beach equipment, or moving boxes. The Mazda CX-90 falls right in line with these generous cargo dimensions:

Do you have a few items that are for your eyes only? The Mazda CX-90's trunk offers additional storage space under the cargo floor! Plus, the cargo floorboard is built with a 5-degree incline, making it easy to load and offload gear. Did we mention there’s an available Hands-free Rear Power Liftgate too?

If you want to switch out bags of luggage for a small family camper, the Mazda CX-90 has the strength to do so. When properly equipped, this model can tow up to 5,000 pounds, which equates to a small hard-sided RV, a small recreational boat, a couple of Jet Skis, a lightweight travel trailer, or a utility trailer with a few snowmobiles.
