Is The Mazda CX-70 Better Than Your Mom's BMW? // Road Test + 0-60 

Traded in my much loved 2023 CX9 carbon edition for the CX70 Turbo S Premium with the inline six. It doesn’t feel as nimble as the 9 but it’s an amazing car for the money. Since I drive very few city miles, I wanted the bigger engine and other than the clunky iStop system, this thing is great to drive. Got the polymetal grey with the red nappa leather and with the 70’s blacked out trim and new front and rear fascias , it looks amazing. The CX70 feels like a truly premium vehicle and it competes favorably with cars costing far more. Mazda may be a small car company but they punch well above their weight.

Ngl, that Red Nappa interior is stunning, to say the least………might I dare say, “BMW - M ish”………just saying. Excellent review, boys…….keep up the great work!

Amigos !! great review thank you for the wonderful channel you guys have.

Waiting for these improvements to carry over to the 2025 Cx90

So I have a Mazda CX-70 PHEV Premium arriving next week, in the new-color-for-2025-CX-70 “Melting Copper Metallic” you show, but special-ordered with a GREIGE (GREy-beIGE) leather (*not* Nappa) interior. (Not a big fan of the Copper ext./Red Nappa int. color combination. Trump Tower-level tacky 😮) As a widower with a shepherd, a 3rd row would be useless & annoying, but room to sleep in back & store a mtn. bike: sweet!

Great review

damn their cars look good

I believe they've made adjustments to the I6 powertrain on the CX-70 as well, would be curious how it compares to your initial impressions in the 90.

After some calculations with the cx 70s mile per kWh it costs about the same to drive as the turbo s. So the benefit is if youre in a lot of stop and go traffic you can just be in EV. Honestly the turbo s needs more power. the phev should not be as fast to 60 and the turbo s should be smoother than a 4cyl. Great review!

Great video guys! In europe we have the CX-60, that's had a multitude of problems, despite being the same architecture and hardware. Most noticeably the gearbox being very clunky and unpleasant to drive - how was the gearbox in the CX-70? It baffles me that the same hardware in more or less the same car can be so different, I assume it comes down to them not wanting to move the "newer" software from CX-70 to CX-60.

Why not just put 18’s on this car? Would that make this thing alone much more beefy on the trail?

The from grills are brake coolers

Sorry, but I would still prefer to have the dual tips exposed. And the seats could have reclined even more in the back row.

the video is a CX90 by the looks of the grill??

My inline 6 mild hybrid is averaging 28 mpg with non-gentle driving. Unless you’re doing a ton of short distance driving and using the EV functionality, not really a huge advantage getting the PHEV.

THE WAY FORWARD FOR MAZDA IS IN 2025 IS TO BRING CX-10 CX-20 & CX-40 MODELS OUT DISCONTINUE THE CX-3 & CX-5 CX-10-90 SHOULD BE THE FULL RANGE OF MODELS THAN IT SHOULD JUST BE A MATTER OF TIME FOR ALL MODELS IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES .

Wireless charger where you put your wallet…… phone problem solved!

Short answer: No, it’s not!
