I like the Muzio family smell test right after your infotainment reviews. My family is pretty sensitive to smells so we've been looking for a 3-row SUV that has the least amount of VOC's. I read that Mazda/Japanese automakers pay attention to that kind of stuff. I know Volvo used to back in the day but I don't think they do anymore. Great overall review of the car too. It's between the CX90 and the Lexus TX coming out this fall for us.
This is an all-new platform with all-new powertrains (pretty much the worse combination for a new car) so I'm not surprised there are drivability quirks. With that said, Mazda is good at improving their vehicles over time, so I'd bet that the 2025 or 2026 CX-90 will be more a refined product.
My favorite part was when Evie said it felt like driving a regular 2-row SUV. As someone who hasn't had more than 3 passengers since my oldest got their license almost 20 years ago, I have no use for the third row. I'm VERY interested in the upcoming CX-70 however, and if this feels like a 2 row, I'm hoping *that* one will feel like an even smaller 2 row. Also, inline 6 please. It's what drew me to these new cars, and after several reviews, that PHEV seems like it still needs a lot of work. Also also, that seatbelt chime shouldn't do anything if the vehicle is in park. Fine if it goes nuts as soon as I put it in gear, but if I'm sitting there listening to music with the A/C on while I wait for someone, I don't need to wear a seatbelt.
7 years ago when I rented a BMW X5 it amazed me how much it felt like a slightly larger MINI Cooper (the BMW I could afford and owned at the time) from behind the wheel. Granted Evie has been used to driving a 4-door Bronco lately.. but it is still a huge compliment to Mazda’s suspension gurus. I wonder if Dave Coleman had any input on the CX-90.
I want to trade out our 22 Highlander Platinum for this, but it it has a huge con. Despite being a bigger vehicle than the Highlander, the inside feels small and rear cargo area is 8 cu.ft. smaller with the third row down. A huge negative for trying to convince my wife to go with this instead.
This . Try Acura MDX or new Honda Pilot Elite AWD. The new Honda AWD system drives very well without sacrificing the handling. And you get more space and usable 3rd row seat.
I am actually in the market for this vehicle. Am looking at the preferred plus which has a msrp of around $47,275. The PHEV is too expensive for what it is.
Great review! Oh, and which one of you two has the good taste in Podcasts? Decoder Ring is outstanding! I always learn something. That Parm cheese episode was so tasty!
I like the lil dicky reference it’s like cx90 wants to do the midsize three row suv game differently like lil dicky wanted to do the rap game differently to see a whole new market that may not be satisfied with what’s out there now for the price.
It is easily identifiable as a Mazda.....I expect refinements are on the way... smoother shifts and such. Every review I had seen notes uncomfortable shifts. I don't even mind the roof rails absence...very few will take this off pavement. Its a good start Mazda 👍I think later models will be even better.
Hi Micah, great review, how do you rate the suspension feel, ride of phev, is it similar to inline 6 turbo in feel, stiffness? Do you feel its harsh on tbe road?
As a current Mazda CX9 owner, frankly speaking CX90 is comprehensively improved, but only 2 Negatives points stopped my upgrade plan. 1: The second row headroom space is more narrow than CX9. 2: 8AT transmission shifting gears is frustrating than CX9 6AT, especially 1-2-3. Slower gear changes than CX9 6AT as well. Hopefully Mazda could hear about this and improve it.
These sorta primium-ish reach models always seem to be the biggest bargain with less equipment... but that base model better have a heated steering wheel :-).
It’s a silly safety feature. Like let me start the car I might need to go grab a thing or just move the car forward for a moment in my driveway, so I need a seatbelt 😅? Lol
@@LafemmebearMusic yes. Legally, anytime you’re moving a motorized vehicle registered to be driven on public roads, you are required to wear a seatbelt. You’re nitpicking and that’s a very niche situation. You can handle the chimes if you’re unwilling to wear your seatbelt, or unwilling to become less lazy by not moving the car such a short distance that you don’t think you require a seatbelt.
This ain't a vehicle for speed & wild acceleration... I've watched many videos and some reviewers understand that and some are expecting a trackhawk acceleration. This ain't the vehicle for what y'all are thinking
Love the overall impression of this car but unfortunately, at 6'4" with long legs, that big bulky door handle is right where my knee goes and it is not comfy at all. I fear the CX-70 will have the same design. Great video, Muzio fam!
You should drive it first. I was at an even recently and our friend is 6’5 he didn’t seem to have an issue driving this. I wonder if your torso to leg ratio is different tho maybe? Anyway drive it 😊
@@LafemmebearMusic I did drive it. 😄 That hard handle is exactly where I rest my knee. No problems with my CX-5, but the door design is much different.
The Mazda CX-90 has several unproven items: The inline 6 engine with turbo, the 8-speed automatic transmission, the wet clutch (rather than torque converter) mounted on the back of the transmissions, the electric motor/generator (replaces starter & alternator) mounted on the back of the engine.
I really like this vehicle, and I know Mazda is a highly rated brand, however that said I would probably get a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander! But that is mostly because I have always had Hondas, I just seem to always return to Honda… A few of my friends and my sister seem to go for Toyota! And I don’t really know anyone who owns a Mazda 🤷♂️ as well as my Opinion of Hyundai and Kia, I know that they are popular and well priced, however I have NEVER met a single person bragging about their 1991 Hyundai Sonata!!! But I have met MANY people say my 1990s Honda Accord has 300k miles and still going strong!!! Same with Toyota owners that say the same thing!!! Never really heard that much from other brands.. Word of mouth and longtime customers are definitely a good thing!!!
Mazda is not as large a company by far as those two brands you’re referring to. So for me I think a lot of us just didn’t know much about Mazda vehicles simply because of marketing and pure market share.
I tested the CX-90 but the interior was not roomy for my intentions, specifically 3rd row is cramped esp if you try to give 3rd row more legroom the. 2nd row gets cramped as well. Just look at the legroom Micah has when in the 2nd row. Ended up getting the new Pilot which wasn’t even on my radar but it’s 3rd row is very good and handling is very good for something that FWD biased and isn’t a RWD. Handles pretty well. Highlander is very good if you don’t need the 3rd row or use it rarely or need it in a pinch. I will need it frequently. Mazdas make very good cars though, reliable too. Mazda lost some ground 20yrs ago, I think primarily due to rust issues but the last decade they have made a turn around.
Curious why you list the phev as 26 miles electric then 25 mpg verses just saying 56 mpge? Does the 56 mpge assume electric mode is always used first or is it based on combined mode driving?
@@mitchellsteindler well they were on the path with the Telluride rear, all Range Rover and Palisade, a modified Range Rover front but your right though they went further with the Santa Fe.
how is the drive feeling? I'm scare of Mazda now. I have Cx5 2018, hate it everyday. The drive is not smooth especially when I release gas pedal and it approaches slow speed. It gives me chock feeling.
Doesn’t seem like Mazda committed one way or the other. There was so much early on about the long hood and inline 6. This sacrifices the interior room. I don’t see where this vehicle is sporty enough to warrant that sacrifice. Can’t see why I would ever choose this over a Pilot, Palisade, Grand Highlander or Telluride. The interior is beautiful in certain specs though.
The mild-hybrid-turned-PHEV will never work. I can't wait for the Honda/Mitsubishi/Koenigsegg-style series hybrid-style PHEV to make its way to larger vehicles. PHEVs should be able to pull out into traffic aggressively in EV mode without the driver worrying about starting the ICE.. otherwise it's just a hybrid with a too-heavy battery and bad throttle response. No thank you, Mazda.
Curious on the gear selector, why take a really tried and true system and turn it upside down. The rest, seems pretty nice. I'd take the highlander over it and I am a mazda owner.
Would be a great two row car but its disappointing Mazda can't be class competitive on cargo or third row space in a car that has exterior dimensions that are larger than many of its more spacious competitors. I don't understand how Mazda hasn't learned at this point that they won't catch Honda, Toyota, or the Koreans if they can't match them on practicality in classes where practicality is one of the main things buyers want.
Mazda needs to put that inline 6 engine into a Mazda 6 or MX coupe model. Shame that it's only in this huge hulking SUV. Also in person, that CX-90 rear end looks really ugly from the bulbous shape to the tail lights that's are way too long
Definitely a very likable SUV. However the third row space, the shift refinement and the ride quality are deal breakers… the external, especially the front, is a missed opportunity. It could look more premium/ elegant and more aggressive… the current design is too reserved and that makes it too close to the style of the CX-9…
Rather buy a 2022 Acura MDX or newer. The base model comes with everything you need. And the the 2nd row can be captains chairs or you can keep it as a bench seat.
I fear Mazda is losing its way a bit...should have updated the wonderful CX5 rather than add the faux trail-runner CX50 (with that wheel/tire set?? gimme a break), which is just different enough to be not as good. And CX90 could fill its own non-niche: too $$ for value shoppers but too cheap for premium buyers -- and it comes with shakedown issues in the drivetrain to boot. Also, Mazda seems clueless about hybrid tech. The PHEV version of this gets a whole 25MPG overall...wow
You can get either as an option / trim level. I got my CX-90 PHEV in this exact interior (black exterior) on purpose. The dual captains mid row allow me to have my child seat equipped and still allow one side to move forward to gain access to the way back.
Inline 6 ruined by a "mild" hybrid. Resulting in quircks and a rough weird ride. Inline6 has to be yanked out for many parts replacements, they out thought themselves. Acura RLX hybrid for ex is seamless and super smooth. Damn thing flies and is faster than CX90. Dual clutch tranny and it gets better MPG. Mazda f.....up here. Theyre sitting in showrooms. Everyone is buying Tellurides, Hyundais....etc

Just bought a 2023 Mazda CX5 and I love it. This would be too big for me but looks great.
