if the Infiniti still had the CVT I would go with mazda, 100% but the 9 speed addition changes everything.
As much as Mazda is pushing the barrier between mainstream and premium, the CX-9 is just not up to par with the luxury SUVs. If this was the previous Infiniti then the Mazda would be victorious here, but Infiniti really made some solid upgrades to the QX60. The Mazda that luxury automakers need to watch out for will be the CX-90.
It's the newest Mazda lineup that is competing with the premium brands. This guy doing the reviews is an idiot. He should have been comparing the Infinity to the new CX90. Even his comments are ridiculous most of the time.
...well one is a 2022 release and the other is a 2016 release so yeah I'd hope the model created 6 years later would be more up to par
@@clarkpackard2 missed the point entirely.
@@drivescene6747 Nah bro, I think you missed your own point unless you don't consider the "previous Infiniti" you mentionned as a luxury SUV. Then and only then does your point make sense. Otherwise it doesn't, because you claim the CX-9 is on par with the previous QX60, which is a luxury SUV, but claim "the CX-9 is just not up to par with the luxury SUVs".... reasoning baby, gotta have it.
@@Escape_Raz 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ gotta love internet people. The previous Gen QX60, though it’s an Infiniti that’s supposed to be “Luxury,” it was not an par with other luxury SUVs.
Actually compare the CX-90 ( turbo Inline 6 with 8 speed DCT), the replacement for the CX-9, not a 8 year old model against the all new QX60 . Then you will have a proper comparison , and I'm an Infiniti QX owner.
cuz no cx90 yet
It's like comparing him to matwatson😕
I was coming to leave a similar comment but you beat me to it so I'll just piggyback yours!
Still loses
Strange comparison, the cx9 is using the same design from 16 where the qx60 was just redesigned recently, also qx60 starts like 10k more than the cx9. The upcoming cx90 vs qx60 would be a more fair comparison
When that comes will compare
I totally agree with you, is not a fair comparison and both cars are in different classes.
Or the CX-9 VS the new Pathfinder (which is based on the QX60's architecture).
@Thomas Ferrugia agreed, you'd more likely be cross-shopping the cx9 with the pathfinder than the qx60
Also a strange comparison because the Infinity is almost $15k more across all trims. Its not really comparing apples to apples. I'm not sure how he comes to the conclusion that the Infinity outshines the Mazda as the better value? Better overall vehicle maybe...but better value? The CX-9 trades punches in every category and it is $15k less??? Not sure he understands the definition of "value".
If anyone is not sure about what they want to buy because there’s so much competition. Take it from me who owns the Qx60. Go and test drive the INFINITI and you’ll see how great the driving experience is. Guys who are in their 40s and 50s who’s missing the sports experience before they had kids. This vehicle brings back so of that excitement. It’s not a sports car or anything like that but drives really nice and handling is really good. lots of power, really nice materials and the 9 speed is really good. I traded my Murano with a cvt. Never again cvt. At first it a little big in size but I used to the size in a few hours.
It’s such a great car honestly.
I also changed from Murano to QX60
The fact you are comparing an Infiniti with a Mazda is a win for Mazda.
I love the Infiniti!
You did an excellent job of describing and explaining the difference between the two products and their features. Thank you and please continue to deliver us information.
The QX60 for me. No doubt!
Mee too
😂 you need CVT failure in your Nissan to never buy it again?
It doesn’t have a cvt
@@blkbimmer90 But it has Nissan's engine and overall reliability...not a good thing.
@@kdomster9141Wah. The transmission... Oh wait. Wah. The engine 😢
I'm with Mazda here 👍🏻
Personally I'd take the CX-9. The fact that this came out in 2016 and has had only a few minor updates is insane that it's still as competitive as it is. Can't wait to see how thr CX-90 competes when it's released! Great review as always!
Didn't this infinity came out around the same time also?
@style 20 no this generation QX60 was completely redesigned and brand new for 2022 with new exterior, interior and transmission.
@@tylerharvey8299 damn. I guess the redesign wasn't that different because I swear I thought it was still the old design
@style 20 I feel like it's because it's very similar to the QX50 that did come out 4 or so years ago it already looks a little old to me. Definitely better but it's not as good as I had hoped it would be!
@@tylerharvey8299 oh that might explain why.
Infiniti wins for me here. Good vid. Like the music. Much better than most UA-camrs with their free B roll hip hop samples
Best review I’ve seen so far, I am trying to decide between these two currently
I just had a conversation with my ex about her Mazda 3 & her need for a new car, she's 5'.0" under 100 lbs but since she's from Hamilton she naturally has a lead foot.
I was looking at QX-60 for the room for her 3 girls who should have their own but I know I'm going to lose this battle.
What about a Benz or BMW 5? $1.45 a liter in T.O. yesterday but here it's $1.92 on Vancouver Island where snow is obsolete.
What else do you suggest?
Can we get redsport vs stinger
As a cx5 owner i would take the cx9 any day any time,,driving experience is excellent 👌
I would trust Mazda quality over Nissan/Infinity quality any day.
Mazda wanna look like Infinity
You do know the Mazda came way before the infiniti
@@mattblock6616 yes i know but i specificaties means this two models those grijs headlightz little bit the same. only the Infiniti is al True high premium brand mazda not but they want now make this brand in this premium division
$15,000 difference!!!! Get the Mazda!!! Much better drive, more sporty!
QX60 👍👍❤️🇬🇪
My personal opinion would be the Infiniti engine long term would be more reliable. Mazda have stepped up over the years with luxury type features and feel, I ike how Infiniti use a N/A engine.. Looking forward to hear your take in the video
Infiniti is one of the most unreliable brands in general.
@@devinmurray5280 Yes, I liked the G37 etc but the newer ones, not so much. Especially turbo vehicles
@@Blue-moon12 G37 was a fun car.
@Devin Murray They still look good today, especially the coupe. I am a big fan.
Infiniti more reliable than mazda?! 😂😂😂
INFINITI Qx60 sooo much nicer then Mazda short or long term .
His accent is EXACTLY like Frederick's from Milluon Dollar Listing New York who is from Sweden!
The fact that a car thats been out since 2016 can still compete so closely with newer luxury SUVs only means that Mazda is the real winner
Plus...the new CX90 stacks up more similarly to SUVs like the Aviator and GV80
Well it’s not really a luxury model - more premium. QX60 is a bit more luxurious
Let’s compare the Cx90 to the infinity a more fair comparison. Mr Sam
Coming
Does the Mazda use a timing chain or timing belt ? I remember the 2.3 turbo they used in the Cx-7 and Cx-9 had problems with the chain stretching.
My sister in law had the older model 08 back in 2010 and she had put more money in repairs than she bought it for. She finally moved on from it to buy a 2017 GMC Acadia with the dreaded 3.6 engine …… she won’t listen to anyone and thinks she’s getting a deal buying cheaper .
Older cx9 never had a 2.3 turbo, 2.3 turbo started in 2016 my. 2.3 disi was in mazdaspeed 3, speed6 and cx7. It was a stout engine if you were an enthusiast and knew what to do preventatively. Current cx9 is very reliable.
The 2.3 was when Ford and Mazda were partners. Today, it is Toyota and Mazda.
I currently own an '08 model with the 3.7L V6 and have over 270K on the car. Other then replacing shocks, brakes and tires its been running great after 15.5yrs of ownership. The things that are aging which cannot be avoid in Canadian climates are the weather seals (which now allow more noise into the cabin) and paint (which has some fading on the roof as my car is a dark colour and has always been parked outside) . I am waiting for the CX-90 as a replacement for my CX-9 I am sold on Mazda's.
Sam, I wanted to know your opinion on the 2023 GMC Terrain. The SUV looks nice and aggressive with all the black accents, but the interior looks dated, and the 0-60 is like 9 seconds which to me is kind of underpowered.
Nissan Rogue or Mazda CX5
The GMC Terrain is a terrible choice amongst its competitors
That being said, if the the car is something that you want and love...then get it!
Fuck comparisons at that point, get what your heart desires!
Cx9 is pretty quick for it size . Few car can outrun this car unless you driving a sport car
Since when is a Mazda anything considered a luxury brand/cars? The CX-90 isn't a QX60 competitor... It is nice but I'm pretty sure it competes against the Pathfinder and Highlander and the QX60 competes with Acura MDX, GLE, and XC-90.
The new upcoming CX-90 will be a compete with the QX60. Right now the CX-9 compete's with the Pathfinder which is shares the same platform with the QX60
Still Mazda is not premium because the pathfinder is from Nissan and the brand is not a luxury brand
Should have compared it to the cx90 with the online 6 cylinder engine!
Do you have one?
Why didn't you discuss differences in price?
Don’t watch 2 min
Next, can you compare a Prius to a Huracan. Thanks.
Will do
@@SamCarLegion 😂
Up next, the BMW i8 vs a Miata and a new way to cook Perogies!
I’d take the cx9 signature or the cx90
Tired of seeing auto journalists show the nissan pathfinder and infiniti qx60 third rows and not recline them, they always show them in the uncomfortable most up right position
Why not comparing Mazda CX9 with new Pathfinder which is similar to QX60 but cheaper.😊
Will do that
and also cost too $$$, you will pay at least 20 k more for the infinity
Mazda has two problems: Cramped interior and lame infotainment controls.
The touchscreen alone is enough to make be want the Infiniti.
It is outdated a bit for sure
In ur mind
Correct.
All my opinions are in my mind.
Comparing an older model to a new one makes no sense. Why not compare it to a cx 90?
I will cut it short: QX60 still better than the CX90
Comparing apples to oranges here.
Still fruits :)
Never see old Mazdas. Once they blow, they go. Resale too low to restow.
Probably because the Mazda is 100 years old compared to the Infiniti
Unfair comparison because they are different generations. Mazda cx90 would have been better matched against the qx60
they are still selling CX9s
Lol what a joke! Should have been compared to the CX-90. Who in the world thought it would be a good idea to make this comparison?
Do you have the CX90?
@@SamCarLegion No
@@KingRockets then…
Cx60 not 90
Of course qx60 is more expensive than cx9. Why you don’t compare with bmw xm with qx60 let see. If you compare consider the price and capability of the suv
both of these brands don’t utilize interior space well
The Mazda hasn't changed much though
True
But that’s fine. The Mazda still looks gorgeous to this day
it does look great
Originally, I wanted a cx9.. then I wanted a stinger.. I finally ended up with a tesla model y
Except Infiniti loses a ton of value because of the reliability issues of Nissan/Infinity.
Infiniti has been generally reliable thou.
Yeah What Reliability Issues Do Infinitis Have?
@@odnamorvr3053 ehh some models do okay. At their best, middle of the pack. Mechanics love them for their business though.
@@J.Nev. even just looking at vehicles with the most transmission issues, you’ll see most are Nissan/Infiniti. Especially from their CVts they use.
Infiniti is very reliable! The engine on this Infiniti is proven to be very reliable too.
Biased
Dude , this is such a garbage comparison... CX-9 can be leased now for 379usd with 3000down as 5yrs model with timeless design and build quality while Nissan needs refresher every 2 yrs like Kia and Hyundais due to lacking design in the first place .
Mazda quality is way above Nissan not to mention Nissan is leaning on coat savings generated by use of cheap and cheesy CVT while Mazda never does as it simply would not be itself using such cheesy drivetrain choice .
Compare this Nissan premium wannabe to a CX90 to be fair .
Infiniti have bad reputation in the intirior bad quality in dash and leather.Other problem in infiniti valve body transmission 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Mazda is 250 horsepower on premium gas 🤦
Infiniti is 290
Mazda is not and will not be premium
Why not compare this Mazda CX-9 to the Nissan Pathfinder Platinum trim instead of the Infiniti QX60? They are more evenly keeled.
Already done
Infinity is over priced put them up against Hyundai Palisades.
