The Mazda CX-9 is one of the more distinctive three-row midsize SUVs, prioritizing style and driving experience. It also comes closest to closing the gap with the luxury brands with its impressive cabin materials and design. It falls short when it comes to cargo, utility and third-row accommodations, which seem like important things on a midsize-SUV shopper's list. And it's a big reason why it isn't higher up the ranks.

Overview

The 2023 Mazda CX-9 is a three-row midsize SUV and currently the largest SUV in the automaker's lineup, sitting above the recently introduced Mazda CX-50. An all-new three-row crossover SUV dubbed the CX-90 is on the horizon, which could mean the CX-9's days are numbered. But for 2023, at least, the CX-9 is still in the mix.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2023 Mazda CX-9 Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $4.45 per gallon for premium unleaded in Ohio.}

This year's CX-9 receives only minor changes. The most significant of them is that the base trim level, the Sport, is no longer available. That means the former next-step-up Touring is now the least expensive CX-9 trim on offer and, as such, the CX-9's entry-level price is a few thousand dollars more than most rival three-row SUVs. But you are getting a pleasingly well-equipped SUV out of the deal. Plus, updates over the past few years such as standard all-wheel drive and an upgraded infotainment system have done a lot to keep it from falling behind in a highly competitive class.

Just about every mainstream automaker has an SUV in this class so it takes a lot for a product to stand out. Some of Edmunds' top picks include the Kia Telluride, Hyundai Palisade, Honda Pilot and Volkswagen Atlas. If you don't need a third row (and the CX-9's is one of the least spacious third rows around), the new Mazda CX-50 looks and feels a bit more modern than the aging CX-9. But no other three-row looks and feels quite like the CX-9. It's sporty, sure, but it's also quiet and comfortable on the road, enhancing the premium feel even further.

What's it like to live with?

When Mazda last redesigned the CX-9 for the 2016 model year, we took one into our long-term fleet for a full year. Over the course of 22,000 miles, we learned plenty about what's great about the CX-9 and what's not. Note that while there have been some changes to the CX-9 since 2016, most of our observations still apply.

Good

7.9

edmunds TESTED

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

8.5/10

How does the CX-9 drive? The Mazda CX-9 feels like a smaller midsize SUV in many ways, including the way it drives. It's a bit more athletic than competitors on a winding road, with confident brake response, and it's easy to maneuver in tighter confines. The all-wheel-drive system is tuned mainly for inclement road conditions, but it can handle your weekend "soft-roading" excursions.

There's a sufficient amount of power on tap that's available right off the line, delivering great response when you need to get going. Accelerating to 60 mph takes 7.6 seconds, which is good for a three-row midsize SUV, and the transmission shifts smoothly, making for a seamless daily driver experience.

Comfort

8.0/10

How comfortable is the CX-9? Whether you're commuting or taking a long road trip, the CX-9 delivers a good degree of comfort. Much of the credit goes to the smooth ride, which strikes a balance between sporty and compliant. Taller tire sidewalls contribute to this balance, helping provide cushion against road imperfections. Inside, the CX-9 has well-sculpted front seats that offer ample support, but it's worth noting the third row is quite small and not as comfortable as many competitors' back rows. The cabin, however, is luxury-level quiet, which is impressive.

Our test car's climate control is easy to use, but it might not blow cold enough if you have polar bear blood running through your veins. The heated and ventilated front seats work decently, and rear passengers have access to climate controls for their area.

Build & Price

Interior

8.0/10

How’s the interior? The Mazda CX-9's interior is thoughtfully designed, simple and elegant, and a benchmark for non-luxury SUVs. The primary controls are easy to reach and use. The main control dial is instantly intuitive and provides quick navigation within the menus of the sharp-looking 9-inch infotainment display.

Getting in and out of the CX-9 is easy, and access to the third row is much improved thanks to new second-row captain's chairs available in the Signature trim. The first and second rows have a good amount of room, but the third row is best reserved for kids. Visibility isn't quite as open as in other SUVs because of the CX-9's thickish pillars and a rear window that's on the smaller side.

Technology

8.0/10

How’s the tech? The optional Bose stereo system delivers clear and powerful sound. Smartphones are easy to pair and quick to be recognized on startup. There are also plenty of USB ports to keep everyone's devices charged — six total in our top trim. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration is standard.

All CX-9s come loaded with advanced safety and driver aids such as adaptive cruise, blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic warning, forward collision warning and lane keeping assistance. They're well tuned to deal with heavy traffic, and false alarms are rare. Adaptive cruise and lane keeping work well to relieve the burden of heavy traffic.

Storage

7.0/10

How’s the storage? The CX-9 falls behind the competition in cargo and utility. The 14.4 cubic feet behind the third row could be adequate for many shoppers, but for comparison, there's 21 cubic feet in the class-leading Kia Telluride. Max cargo is equally short, with 71.2 cubic feet in the CX-9 and 87 cubes in the Telluride.

Thoughtful interior design makes the CX-9 easy to live with, and growing families should find adequate space for all their things. Door pockets and cupholders are nicely sized. Car seats are easy to install with the second-row captain's chairs. There's a good amount of room for any size car seat, even large rear-facing ones. If you plan to do much towing, the CX-9 doesn't lead in that area, maxing out at a lower-than-average 3,500 pounds.

Fuel Economy

8.0/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA fuel economy rating for our all-wheel-drive CX-9 is 23 mpg combined (20 city/26 highway), which is slightly better than average for this class. We were mostly able to hit those fuel economy targets, but they can be easy to miss if you're heavy-footed. If saving money is more of a priority than max engine power, the CX-9 has the ability to run on regular octane fuel.

Value

7.5/10

Is the CX-9 a good value? The CX-9 is definitely among the leaders in terms of its build quality, especially in top Signature trim. Entry-level models are generally more expensive than the competition, but the Mazda justifies the higher cost by including more standard features. It's priced fairly competitively at the top end, and the interior closely resembles a luxury-class cabin thanks to exquisite materials, uniform gaps and clean, elegant design. The exterior paint is well done too.

Warranty coverage and ownership benefits such as roadside assistance are pretty standard for the class.

Wildcard

8.0/10

The Mazda CX-9 Signature is a standout in the three-row midsize SUV class, mostly for its striking design and relatively engaging driving experience. It feels decently athletic through corners but not at the expense of ride comfort. It's the most original offering in the segment.

Which CX-9 does Edmunds recommend?

The Mazda CX-9 has long been a bit more expensive than its rivals, but the higher price is offset by a greater number of standard features. That's especially true of this year's model, as the previously midtier Touring model becomes the new base trim. We rather like this introductory model, which has a generous level of standard content. We'd spend a little extra for the Touring Plus model, however, which adds ventilated seats and a third-row bench among other extras.

Mazda CX-9 models

For 2023, the Mazda CX-9 lineup consists of the Touring, Touring Plus, Carbon Edition, Grand Touring and near-luxury Signature trims. Highlight features for each include:

Premium quilted leather upholstery with piping
Real wood interior trim
Second-row captain's chairs with center console

While a second-row bench seat comes standard on Touring Plus and Grand Touring trim levels, captain's chairs can be specified as an option.

Not bad at all

Dallas Cowboy, 06/05/2023

2022 Mazda CX-9 Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

The good: - Handling is great, better than anything in this segment, without sacrificing the ride comfort (I have Touring with smaller rims though); - Acceleration from the turbo engine is decent, especially in the 40-70 mph range.No turbo lag at all. - Overall ride is smooth and composed, I'd say premium-like (think Volvo XC-90 with better handling); - Noise level - way quieter at … highway speeds than my wife's Toyota RAV4; - Very good third row with cupholders, some additional storage and its own USB port; more suitable for kids/teenagers though; - Second row has it's own climate controls; - Remote start from the app (works from anywhere); - The knob interface is not as bad as I thought it would be, after getting used to it I no longer regret not having touchscreen; - Mazda finally fixed the problems it had 5-7 years ago (which were very weak AC and horrible headlights - no longer an issue). - Build quality and interior materials quality is great overall. Better than competitors from Toyota, Nissan, Honda, etc. in this price category (yes, I test drove them all, with the exception of Telluride - because it's more expensive and dealers were not willing to negotiate). Leather actually looks/feels/smells like leather and not like some PU. The Bad: - The collision mitigation system is VERY sensitive, even at the low radar setting. At least 2-3 times I almost caused an accident because vehicles behind me had to emergency-brake because of this system engaging; One good example is when a vehicle in front of me was turning right and I wasn't reducing my speed because I knew for sure I had plenty of distance for the vehicle in front of me to complete that turn - well, the system thought otherwise... Also, be careful when/if you change the lanes too aggressively as it might engage as well. - Experienced some pretty bad hesitation/jerking from transmission when accelerating from a rolling stop, especially downhill (appears to be some transmission issue hunting between 1-2 gears). Only happened 5-7 times and appears to be mostly gone after my dealer reprogrammed transmission at 7k miles; - Also experienced some transmission lurching/jumping forward at lower speeds (total of 5-7 times); once it happened when I pulled into the garage. The issue still happens occasionally and was not fixed with the transmission reprogramming by the dealer. Shifting into neutral and back into drive usually takes care of it, although sometimes it would require engine shut off/restart for it to go away. - Seats are not too comfortable; and no memory settings on Touring (you would have to get Touring Plus for that); - Keep an eye on oil level (I usually check it every other refuel, so far so good); The Ugly: - Depreciation is horrible, prepare to loose 20% of value in year 1; - If you drive aggressively prepare for some unpleasant surprises: my fuel consumption is 19.2 mpg and my front tires are at 50% after 10k miles. The tires that come from the factory on these are terrible and don't even have tread life warranty from the manufacturer. I also suspect the front brake pads won't last longer than 20-25k miles as the brakes feel weak for such a large vehicle. Overall I'd rate it 3.7 - 3.8 out of 5. 1 YEAR UPDATE: All of the above still applies. Great build quality and great handling. Very stable (and quiet) even at 100mph. All the transmission issues disappeared (knock on wood), haven't felt anything for the past 3-4 months. Seems like reprogramming by the dealer took care of the problem. MPG still sucks and haven't improved at all (still at 19 MPG combined). The best I've seen was 24-25 mpg (if I really baby it). Zero oil consumption issues after 12K miles (knock on wood again). The new comment for those who live in hot climates: the turbo SUBSTANTIALLY under-performs when it's above 90 degrees outside. We've had a heat wave here in TX with temperatures in 110-115s, and while during my morning commute the car feels normal, during my 4-5pm drive it sometimes feels like I have no turbo at all!

Big bang for the buck!

Mazda CX-9 vs. Kia Telluride

Rich materials, an expansive interior and an exceptionally comfortable ride made the Kia Telluride a hit the moment it debuted in 2020. A comprehensive refresh for this year adds updated styling, bigger screens and more tech — all of which make the 2023 Telluride an even more compelling proposition. It's not as fun to drive as the CX-9, and dealer markups threaten the value proposition, but if you can find one at a good price, the Telluride is tough to beat.

Mazda CX-9 vs. Volkswagen Atlas

The CX-9 and Volkswagen Atlas represent two diametrically opposed approaches to the midsize three-row SUV formula. The CX-9 is lithe, powerful and quite luxurious, though its third-row space and cargo capacity leave a lot to be desired. In contrast, the Atlas is big and burly, with a cavernous interior, class-leading cargo space and lackadaisical powertrains. If you want minivan space without minivan styling, the Volkswagen is your best bet.

Mazda CX-9 vs. Toyota Highlander

None of these nameplates have been around as long as the Toyota Highlander — one of the first midsize crossovers ever created. You'd think that Toyota would have perfected the formula at this point, but the truth is the Highlander is overshadowed by a number of competitors, including those here. It does win some points as one of the few options in the class with an available hybrid powertrain, but the Highlander suffers from a cramped third row and ponderous handling.
