      They don't buy them because they are not practical. This is probably the least usable interior of any midsize SUV. Cramped seating, driveshaft hump, small cargo capacity. That's why the brand new CX-90 with all its accolades can easily be found on lots while Tellurides, Highlanders, and Pilots have huge waiting lists and dealer markups. Most "journalists" who fawn over this thing have lost touch with what the market wants. Mazda seems content to remain a niche player.

    Traded in a 2023 RAV4 PRIME XSE PREMIUM...It's the king...However, I like the CX-90 so far (got it yesterday). I agree with them on how the system works. I like how, in normal mode, it will go to hybrid on the interstate around 70mph. This helps you automatically preserve the EV for where it's more efficient. It does go into EV at those speeds too. It switches back and forth. You can lock it into EV by selecting EV instead of Normal at start-up.
    Oh, as a ND2 Miata owner, I took it out while the wife was sleeping and when to my favorite off-ramp: THE TAIL CAME LOOSE WITHOUT ESC intervention! It was STUNNING. It really does drive amazingly! Way better than our 2019 X7 (although that one was beautifully floaty on the interstate).

      Did you calculate savings? It gets 25 miles on EV only and 25 mpg combined mileage on ICE. That means that one battery charge only saves at most 1 gallon of gasoline and in my area 1 gallon of gas cost less than recharging that battery with 16 Kwh. That is unless you get electric for free.

    -No power tilt/telescoping wheel
    -No Interior-matched faux suede door panel (still has contrast stitching and piping)
    -Nappa leather, but not Quilted
    -No lane tracking
    -No body colored wheel wells
    -No Driver Personalization System

    -No rear footwell lighting
    -No Side Mirror reverse-tilt (they do power fold. Didn't see tilt in settings...I looked for it...Will look again)
    -No illuminated tailgate taillights (Turbo S only: looks better going all the way across)
    -No rear air conditioned seats
    -Smaller trunk than 6 seater (The 7 seater 3rd row tilts back, keeping you from placing a 2nd carry-on on top of another...It matters...Check my page for a video of this soon)
    -No automatic unlock on rear door handles
    -No 2nd row center console (although Mazda's site states that it does?)
    -No "Turning across path alert and brake" and Reverse brake support doesn't have "Pedestrian detection" according to the sight. I actually felt this system when turning right onto a road (alerted me of an oncoming car while creeping forward)
    That's a lot of stuff missing for $800 MORE... But my wife likes riding on solar-sourced electricity. I'm bougie, so this bothered me quite a bit. It's her car though, and it likely will do what we need nicely. And it handles great.

      Agree 100%.

      I work with Mazda doing the launch for consumers and dealers across Canada. In Halifax now wrapping it up and carrying on to Quebec City. Spent 2 months with the I6 and the PHEV. The reason they don’t offer the PHEV with signature features is the price point. Both come out to 65k. If PHEV had signature features it would be close to 80 with everything all in. The PHEV infrastructure is worth about 7k. Both get equal gas mileage though on the highway with 0.1L/100km difference average. Only PHEV benefit is the pure electric mode :)

    • @JohnAlsayegh
      @JohnAlsayegh Рік тому +2

      I believe they’re trying to keep the car under $65k so that all trim levels are eligible for the federal rebate.
      “a passenger car, where the base model Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is less than $55,000; and
      higher priced trims of these vehicles, up to a maximum MSRP of $65,000, will also be eligible for purchase incentives”
      I can see customers getting pissed over trying to get all the fixings then having to shell out another $2500 extra. They probably predicted that very few people would go for that trim level since it’ll jump up significantly and not offer equivalent value.

    This is probably my next family car - replacing a 2011 CX-9. I am disappointed in the eletric-only range though. The world NEEDS Phev's with 100 miles of range if we want to turn the tables and get more total EV miles driven. Electric only is not yet up to par for families who do lots of long driving trips and then PHEV's don't give you enough range except for a one-way trip to work for most folks. I'd take this car with 250 HP if it had more electric only range!!
