  • moving up in style - 2016 Mazda CX-9
    By -

    Just traded my 2010 cx9 for a new signature this car is amazing much better then the old one a lot quicker the turbo is great no lag at all. taking it on vacation next week I will check the mileage only issue is that the drivers power seat doesnt have enough adjustment also miss doesnt tell you what gear you are in. only in manual mode. this is the best 7 passenger suv under 45k for driving, style, comfort you could buy. I could drive this car all day long its is so nice.

    . I traded my mercedes benz r 350 2007 (owned 7 years) to cx9. I really love this car. Because the car is more quiet and better looking interior. Even I compare cx9 to glk 350 2013 (my sons car). My cx9 have better quality seat , bigger interior,cheaper price and more tach option.

  • Researched for 6 months - this was the best! - 2016 Mazda CX-9

    I had been looking for a 3 row SUV for hauling my grandchildren along with their trinkets whenever they came to visit. I studied all of the U.S. manufacturers and drove the offerings from Ford and General Motors. I also drove the comparable vehicles from Honda, Toyota, Nissan, and even a late model Infiniti. All were acceptable but nothing had the wow factor. I was encouraged twice within an hour time frame from car guys to drive a Mazda CX-9. I knew nothing about Mazda but was willing to try anything as I had not yet found the perfect match. Im glad that I did. I drove the CX-9 and Im glad that I did. This vehicle had the wow factor I was looking for. The exterior styling looks like a European luxury car. Its really a big vehicle - almost 200 hundred inches long - but it really doesnt look big unless its next to another vehicle. More importantly, it certainly doesnt drive like a 3 row SUV. I cracked up when I discovered the CX-9 classifies as a station wagon on my vehicle registration. It isnt my fathers station wagon - for sure!!! It handles like a dream with many safety features including lane assist, radar cruise control and smart brake assist. The instrumentation for navigation is intuitive after learning the basic features of the joystick that explores the infotainment system. The factory sound generated by the Bose speakers is really good. I enjoy the heads up display now that I have it tuned properly for my height (64"). It lightens significantly when wearing polarized sunglasses but it is still visible. The 4 cylinder turbo gets off the line much more quickly than I need it to and there is plenty of power for passing. Shifts are noticeable but not overly dramatic. I was also pleased with the price point of the Mazda. The price point was also best in class compared to similarly equipped vehicles - and none of the other vehicles I drove had the heads up display or the wow factor. I havent owned it long enough to provide an accurate reliability score but Im impressed overall in the first month of ownership. Im looking forward to a long relationship with this one!

  • Mazda does it again - 2016 Mazda CX-9

    My last Six cars has been Mazdas, four of which were CX9s. Ive found the build quality of Mazdas cars to be excellent. They are reliable, attractive, and cost-effective. I will continue to purchase or lease a Mazda car as long as Mazda continues build cost-effective and reliable automobiles. Now if I can only get reliable service and attention to details from their dealership Ill be a happy camper.

  • Need More Features for a $45K SUV - 2016 Mazda CX-9
    By -

    Considered this car for my wife and as a second car for trips. Agree with another reviewer that Mazda has produced a very good midsize SUV but has failed to add features that make the top trim models worth the $45K+ price. With a few changes, Mazda could hit it out of the park with the CX-9. The seat bottoms and back could could be a bit wider by falattening the side bolsters without widening the compartment. Cant understand why passenger seat is only 4-way on a SUV of this price. Need to have power 10--way driver and 8-way passenger adjustments. Heated and cooler front seats would be a selling point. There also is no heated steering wheel. Interior and exterior color combinations are limited in Grand Touring (no silver with light interior) and theres only one interior color for the Signature, whose leather is of high quality but a tacky color compared to its European competition. No front park assist (beeper) or surround camera like Japanese and Korean mfgs. On the other hand, access to 3rd seat is better than most in its class, the AC is excellent, the infotainment system is the best of breed, and overall handling and comfort is superior. Mazda may have limited its trim because the 2016 CX-9 is the first generation of this new model. Hopefully, the company will produce enough upgrades to actully justify its being considered an upscale midsize SUV.

    More than satisfied with the makeover of the CX-9. Fun to drive. Handling is great. Just a quiet smooth ride. Very happy with this purchase.
