I drive a 2017 Mazda 6 station wagon. It's absolutely fantastic in every way, and after 160.000 kilometers, I still haven't had so much as a yellow warning light! Japanese ultra-quality at its best, and it looks gorgeous to boot.

I think this has better proportions than the CX-90. The 90 is large but you don't get that much passenger or cargo volume. I would have liked this instead of the 70 for the US market with the option to delete the 3rd row.
Having owned 3 Mazda 6s I can say they were the most beautiful cars. This brick flysheet in the face of elegance. Oh dear what has happened to car styling. 😮
I really don't understand why Mazda made a cx60 cx80 cx70 and cx90. So much development costs when there is so little difference in size. I think they could have spent more money on engineering a slightly better product.
The cx70 and cx-90 are one size larger than this car and too big for Japan and Europe. 70 and 90 have the same body size, just different 2-row and 3-row versions. On the other hand, 60 and 80 are different in overall length.
@@MW-uh1xv i think the 70, being the outlier, but they are made for the american market, this 60 and 80 are made for the european market, the differences will lie on the various markets and their availability. But almost all of them look the same, it's just that the 60 and 70 are more "sporty" looking while the 80 and 90 are more elegant looking.
No, as Doug said, the CX-80 is 25cm longer overall than the CX-60. The CX-70 and CX-90 are identical on the outside but the 90 has a third row of seats.
This is honestly a waste of resources they should have used on making new generations of the Mazda 2/6 and mx5. I think Europe would love the cx90 and the Americans are begging, thirsting and are desperate for the cx60 based on reddit. The 70 and the 80 are the most unwanted vehicles mazda has made. They could have also used that money for adaptive dampers on the cx60/90 with that zoom zoom stiff ride Nürburgring ready suspension on a premium family suv.
How would you know? The diesel is a completely new design that has only been out about a year. It's a 3.3L straight six. Mazda's inline four diesel that has a poor reputation is not offered.
I have a CX-5 and I like the dial to use the screen. But it is true that for GPS (I use Google Maps in Apple CarPlay) it's quite annoying to use. Only when I'm stopped at a traffic light I can use it by touching the screen. That makes me not want to use the screen or be aware of it all the time, as happens to me with other cars. Which I believe is the purpose of that system. I think it should be tactile all the time and the driver could choose what he wants to use.
I have a CX60, and its a great car. You're always gonna have issues, when you launch something completely new, amd trust me, ive worked with Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, and Ford, and Mazda are by far and away the most reliable brand, if not the most exciting
Do you get the CX-90 in the UK? Why do you keep saying “Sat”? It’s “Sitting” for present tense. “Sat” is past tense. I sat in the rear seat. I am sitting in the rear seat. I will sit in the rear seat. You don’t say I’m sat in the rear seat. You could say I’ve sat in the rear seat (I have sat), but not I am sat.
@@nigel.w We have the CX-90 here in Australia (I’m a New Zealander) but I don’t think we have the CX-80 (as yet anyway). It’s likely one or the other I imagine. Seated or sitting is correct. Sat is past tense and isn’t valid. You can’t be “sat” anywhere.
did I understand correctly? MAZDA doesn't have a touchscreen center display until now?! In 2024 Mazda multimedia is controlled via a central knob, like a 15-year-old Audi?
cx 80 is too small， and not as nice as cx90。 I know somebody will say europe or japan need thin size car fo parking, but if I buy a such small car, why I by mazda? In car size of cx 90 vs bmw x7, mazda has opportunity and nice appearance and advantage and in price, but in smaller car, mazda has more less opportunity.
The CX-80 isn’t small at all in the place I live (Japan). If people need something bigger I understand Mazda has the CX-90 for them as you mentioned. Not in Japan, though.
Absolute terrible service on a used Mazda 3 from the Newport branch. I had to have the wheels repaired some twice and one 3 times and currently the paint has stayed on. They've permanently damaged the paintwork trying to remove scratches and confirmed it needs painting. Terrible sales manager Gavin Jones. Happy to tell whatever lies, worst experience ever.
How is this car compared to a Volvo XC90? I think they didn't want Europe to have the same confused CX90 vs XC90 battle as in the US variants... I understand the US CX90 is a bit bigger than the EU CX80.
I'm getting really weary of paid-puffery masquerading as product experts who bang on endlessly about how much saffffeeerrrr Mazda's hands-off the screen rotary dial controller is to use as opposed the "competitor' touch screen set-ups. I'll defy anyone to drive along playing the roulette wheel of distraction with one eye trying to pick out your choice of app or music on Apple car play and your other on the road in front. Worst bit of design thinking i've ever seen... and if it doesn't change, my CX5 will be my last Mazda.

If it's based on the cx-60 technology then steer clear of this pile of junk, I have a top of the range cx-60 and it's a pile of junk, so much broken technology in the 60, I noticed on a recent trip that it can't read speed limits correctly in Europe, 90 is read as 80, 50 or 30 randomly, it also can't read 130 limits. My driver recognition system still doesn't work despite upgrades. The radio stopped working 3 times on my current road trip, no sound but everything thing else works, navigation etc. Seats are not comfortable on long journeys I've found out the hard way, something you cannot find on a test drive. I'm seriously thinking of getting rid of my Mazda, after a great cx-5, this car is a big disappointment.

Nice car, better than CX60. Very smart interior, as good as the German manufacturers. This fellow is so professional also.
Better than cx60?... Guess u have driven it
Cx-60 is a terrible car, I can't see this being any better as it's based on the same technology

I've got a CX60, if you deep dive into the settings you can have the screen touch sensitive even when on the move.
These reviewers never mention it
I have not been able to find out anywhere if the middle row of seats folds flat. This would be extremely handy to me.
If they've fixed the ride over the CX-60, IMO they're on to a winner.
Good luck opening those massive doors fully in a UK car park!
Other than the driving seat, you can first ride the car out of the parking position before your passengers go in.

They did it because they felt like it
Australia is the only market so far that gets all of them 😂😂😂.
Do the middle row seats slide in the 7-seat configuration?
Yes
When will CX90 be available in the UK?
No but this is the cx80 and it's available to buy right now
Great to see you on Task Master!
The white beautiful interior is just great for kids and toddlers.
Yes, just like saying the opposite of what you mean is great for sarcasm and irony
This car is longer than the Peugeot 5008 and SKODA Kodiak, so the third row has the most decent seats. However, the body size is large.
So is this basically the cx60 with a 3rd row slapped on? Like how they just removed the 3rd row in the cx70 based on the cx90?
197" long, cx60 187", same width, longer wheelbase
No, as Doug said, the CX-80 is 25cm longer overall than the CX-60.
The CX-70 and CX-90 are identical on the outside but the 90 has a third row of seats.
so basically it’s Mazda doing a Peugeot by making the 5008, less than 10 inches longer than the 3008

isofix points?
The top line trims are not good value.
They should include active dampening in their top trims
Brilliant review!
will it have the usualyy faulty diesel engine that only lasts about 130,000 km life before it needs replacing?
How would you know? The diesel is a completely new design that has only been out about a year. It's a 3.3L straight six. Mazda's inline four diesel that has a poor reputation is not offered.
There are head gasket and failures already on this brand new 6 in line. It's not as good as they'd have you believe.
@@matthewwebb8206 Thank you. I was unaware that this engine already had known issues. Hopefully they quickly resolve the issues.

Long haul, large capacity. Like an Airbus A380 of the road.

Unless phev is more refined now, phev is awful option for comfort driving
The disabled touch screen sucks and its more dangerous/distracting to try and navigate with the dial than touch.
It isn't more dangerous or distracting than the dial, but anyway, this man is wrong because you can enable touch even while moving
Trouble is you can't get this or a Cx60 in petrol in the UK ik it probably wont be the biggest seller but i want that petrol option
It has a petrol engine.

You don’t say I’m sat in the rear seat. You could say I’ve sat in the rear seat (I have sat), but not I am sat.
In colloquial British English, I am sat is okay, as opposed to I am seated in formal English.

In Japan they’re still completely disabled even after using CarPlay or Android Auto.
Looks impressive but I hope Mazda will also focus on cheaper models in the range too, going forward.
Not gonna happen, Mazda, wants to go premium, as many of the Chinese brands that are making their way over, will occupy that space, like MG has
Unnecessarily huge and dire electric range for a new PHEV.
Like Harry Metcalfe, just go with the diesel.

It is really nice. I rather buy Kia carnival for practicality.
this should’ve been the cx70 without the 3rd row
Agreed.
Nice vehicle...
Should be larger though.
Why do you want to compare an X5 "rival" to the X7?
No isofix in the third row and restricted access if adults need to get back there to clip in kids.
Great! Bigger and wider opening rear doors, so more dents for the rest of us in car parks. 🙄🙄🙄
Isn't it the same as yhe cx90?
it is narrower, to suite Europe roads.
Good price and reliability. If you still buy a Kia Sorento, nobody can help you.
Looks nice
nice wish it came in 2 row
Just leave the 3rd row folded down.
Buy a CX60, that's the 2 row version

No isofix in 3rd row!
Looks great
Is that interior child proof?
2 isofix means this is not a true 7 seater but a 5+2. Stop calling it a seven seater
This should have come to NA not that bloated CX90 with 3rd row removed called the CX70
Its very nice suv😊
That car is hot ❤ wow
The CX70 is a mistake for the american market. Mazda should have brought this instead and make it a two row.
This looks exactly the same as my cx90, which is the exact same as the cx70 minus the third row.
Im confused cx60,cx90 now this what the difference
CX-90 is a bigger car, considered too wide for UK roads.
