2024 Mazda CX-90 GT Base Engine - More than enough? 

Thank you for the kind words!

Congrats!!!

Thank YOU for watching and commenting, we appreciate it!

If there’s any automaker out there that’s likely do to such a thing, it’s Mazda!

Cx70 is the exact same dimensions as cx90 so might as well put the seats down and you have a cx70 lol

Thank you for the kind words and welcome to the Modern Motoring community, Ryan!

I don't think so I'm sure it isn't as big as the CX-90. It will be the same as cx-60 but a bit wider and longer.

CX60 is the same size as the 50

What I really hope is that the CX70 is to the CX90 what the Honda Passport is to the Pilot. I love my Passport, but if they really a Mazda equivalent I’d strongly consider it. I think the Passport is a brilliant Goldilocks vehicle in having room vs being compact, as well as being decent on the road vs being able to handle some rougher stuff. Don’t need an off roader, just something for beat to hell forest roads I’d REALLY consider it if they offered a CX70 that is a little more ruggedized (more ground clearance, higher volume tires, etc).

RUMOUR???????

Thanks for your kind words! The CX-9 feels similarly powered, but it’s also got a smaller engine with less to move, so it makes sense that it balances out. Hope that helps! And thanks again for watching!

Thanks so much for watching!

Thanks! GoPro Hero 9 and a Canon 6D Mk2

With the market being what it is these days, almost everything needs to be ordered. Best to check with your local dealer if you’re looking for lot inventory. We can’t comment on whether dealers are marking up except to say it’s not as common in Canada but it does happen, so it’s best to arrive to your negotiations prepared. Hope that helps.

We truly appreciate your ongoing support, Rocky!

The GH isn’t on the Canadian media fleet yet…we’ll review it as soon as it is.

That's in the brochure

Thanks for the kind words, we appreciate them and you! Colour is Platinum Quartz Metallic :) Which colour would you go with?

@@Modern.Motoring Unfortunately in the States parking sensors and 2nd row bench are only offered on the base Turbo S, the trim has limited color options. So either white or platinum.

@@TheFalconx00 parking sensors?

This, like all of our vehicles, come from the Canadian media/press fleet. So yes, this is really a Canadian CX-90.

@Modern Motoring good to know.. that might be good news.. as cars started arriving at usa dealers within a week of usa press meet.. Hopefully we get same now at Canadian dealers this week or next week as press meet completed..

Agreed.

what about toyota and honda?

Happy to answer - which specific aspect(s) are you looking for?

@Modern Motoring 1. I mean overall as a reliability and resale value in future.. 2. In canada palisade has 5years warranty powertrain and 3 years electronics warranty and Cx90 will have 3years warranty...Palisade is giving me extended warranty till 7years by paying extra $2300, so is it good to buy that for peace of mind or to increase resale value as it's transferable? 3. Also, cx90 is forcing leather seats and captain chairs to get 360 camera.. so how good is to have 360 camera in these bigger cars? Palisade is giving 360 camera even in lower trim with Fake leather seats and a bench in 2nd row.. 4. Cx90 even a demo car has not arrived yet in canada.. not sure when will my delivery will come may be another 4-6months.. but palisade is available next week. So should I cancel my deposit for cx90 and get palisade or cx90 is much better than palisade?

straightpipes just released a video on this comparison

@@akhere07 That’s a lot to unpack! We can tell you this: people question it, but Hyundai has improved in recent years both in reliability and in resale value. It sounds like in your specific situation you may get more value out of the Palisade, mostly because you can get it now and it offers the balance of features you’re looking for. As for an extended warranty, we rarely recommend it when a vehicle is going to be well-maintained. Let us know if you have any more questions!

Korean twins Kia Telluride / Hyundai Palisade The Hyundai sales manager put it best, “on paper you can’t beat it.” He’s right, you know. That’s why we actually drive vehicles instead of just going by numbers. If you just HAVE to carry 8 passengers and are too cool for a minivan, this could be on your list. But it was quickly kicked off ours. Seats are less comfortable than the quite firm CX-90, ride was louder and rougher. Quite the vibration. The Korean twins just seemed cheap in comparison. The drive was not inspiring and the AWD system failed to maintain traction with just a little throttle into the dealership (car popped over the hill).

You know mazda 9 have 6 speed so why you buy and now cry here

@@yournightmare9999 Every road test is complaining about shuddering, and slow engagement during launch. Mazda is a small company that can't afford a reliability issue (even perceived).

@bonjournaste what you talking about now mazda is more reliable than toyota or lexus especially Japanese build cx5,9, cx90

@@yournightmare9999 Exactly the reason I'm worried they have switched from a bulletproof conventional automatic to a new design without a torque converter. I'm all in on Mazda, but a big part of that for me is that they keep their designs simple and refine over many years.

Platinum Quartz Metallic.

@@Modern.Motoringthank you. Looks like a nice light slate gray on camera. Is it more gray or gold?

@@mig3872 a touch of a gold tinge is what we see👀

@@Modern.Motoring thank you so much. Shopping between this, telluride and gv80. No idea which one to get. Lol

@@mig3872 there’s no bad option… let us know what you decide on :)

add $15k for similar performance. My comparison to the MDX: The fiercest competitor to the new CX-90 is Acura’s MDX. It drives well and looks sharp. They trade points back and forth. Example: MDX has car-like steering/pedal feel while CX-90 displays Mazda’s design philosophy of road feedback and heavier steering/pedals. Do you want to drive a nicer Honda? Then buy the MDX. Do you want more of a driver’s car? Then buy the Mazda. I felt very confident while driving the CX-90 with it’s rear-wheel biased AWD, even in rain. The Acura seats are absolutely fantastic, the most comfortable out there. I seriously can’t gush enough over the MDX seats. Oh, and both front seats get identical treatment. The passenger isn’t relegated to second class adjustments, lol. The Mazda seats look nicer but are quite a bit firmer. We’ll see how my bottom end handles a long trip but after two hours I was ready to get out of my CX-90 for a bit. With the seat firmness addressed, the Mazda is still more refined overall. Despite the firmer seats, the overall ride is a little softer (and quieter) than the Acura . MDX has wind noise and floor vibration not present in the CX-90. I believe this is due to Mazda’s better suspension and noise damping control than the Advanced package Acura. The MDX Type S has air ride suspension but we did not test this trim back to back against the Mazda. Why not compare top trim to top trim? The MDX costs $15k more than a similarly dressed CX-90. I bought the very top trim Mazda for the bottom engine priced Acura. More pro’s and con’s: my Mazda has ventilated second row seats which are lacking in almost all competitors. The MDX has a removable second row console that converts between seat/armrest/removable. It’s a great design that everyone should copy. CX-90 has air conditioning vents and USB-C chargers in the third row that the Acura lacks. I can become accustomed to either entertainment control but the Mazda control ring is better than the Acura trackpad. Most of all, one must go up to the $75k Acura Type S to get decent sound. The non-S trim sound is horrific. I couldn’t listen to such bloated junk. Seriously, “she sounds hideous.” Even Mazda’s Bose sounded like even spectral response in comparison. With all the Bose 3D spatial mess turned off the CX-90 is fairly true to name, “linear.” I can live with it for a while. The dash is another area where Mazda simplicity shines. The MDX steering wheel and dash controls are much busier. In contrast I can quickly find what I need in the Mazda, which ranks high on my driving safety factor.

That’s what we are saying.

Mazda is on the mark with pricing, nowadays even crappy KIA cost close to 50K so this Mazda is a bargain. Hondas cost so much more with less fit and finish quality. Mazdas are hidden gems and they have moved upscale better than Infiniti and Acura.

@@Thankyou_3 I agree. I checked Palisade, Telluride and the new Pilot. All top trims. None of them matched the interior quality. It is definitely looks like a Premium product. I only wish the black wheel availability for the regular HP Premium Plus version.

Highlander????? Do u mean Lexus???????????

Sorry but highlander and any lexus is a no no to me, except lc500 and LFA. My mom drives a gx460 and I don’t like it one bit, either 4runners such a bad fuel economy choice plus quality and ride comfort is not even there

What specific parts were you unimpressed with?

Be more specific other than you don’t like Japan (whatever that may mean).

Thank you :)

Ontario?
