2021 Mazda CX-9 Touring 4dr SUV

The Mazda CX9 is a full size crossover SUV manufactured by Mazda in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. The CX-9 is built on the Ford CD3 Platform that is shared with the Ford Edge, and it uses the same V6 engine used in the Ford lineup. Although similar, the CX9 and Mazda CX7 do not share platforms. Beyond its sleek styling and firm suspension, the CX-9 popularity is bolstered by its reasonable price, extensive list of comfort and safety features and strong reputation for reliability and resale. Kelley Blue Book said despite its SUV status, it remains a Mazda, meaning it is actually fun to drive. Thanks to a powerful V6 engine and dynamic handling, the Mazda CX9 stands out from competitors because it feels more like a nimble sports sedan than a pragmatic people-mover. Car and Driver said the CX-9 car like driving behavior and chassis poise have remained consistent from introduction to this second freshening, and the CX-9 is still the easiest three row SUV to wield on a day to-day basis. You might say it is a crossover that offers room without sacrificing zoom.
