I know you think it's "lethargic" but put it in perspective mate. The engine is not bad for a 4 cyl 2.5 litre turbo petrol. It punches enough power and torque to get you from 0 to 100 kph in about 7 secs. That's pretty good for an approx 2 tonne vehicle that's meant to be used as a family minibus. It also drinks petrol at the same amount a diesel equivalent SUV/4WD vehicle would do; about 8.5-9 L per 100 kms. I think the engineers at Mazda did a deecent job with this engine.
I've always admired Mazda, especially growing up in the 80s, as the marque has been understated. Thanks 🙏 for the overview Kevin.
Yea my friend I was in love with their rotary engine cars I just thought it was so unique compared to any other car on the market
We own a 2021 GT, and we love it. Almost bought a Touring Plus, but glad we bought the GT for the upgraded features like 360 camera, heads up display, etc.
The only thing I wish the vehicle had was a hybrid powertrain. Mazda is supposed to be offering one in conjunction with Toyota (based on their system). There's nothing wrong with the power of the Turbo four, but the mpg is a bit disappointing. Other than that, zero complaints. Love the CX-9 GT.
I got the 2022 CX-9 Sport in January, loving it! Black on black. It has everything I could ever need - only complaint is lack of keyless entry on the base model - super annoying having to look for my keys to unlock the door when I"m carrying stuff
I plan on getting one beginning of next year. Hows the space?
@@albertomejia7186 It's just me, wife, and dog, so way more than enough. It depends on the size of your family. If you have multiple kids, I'd look for a bigger car. The CX9, I believe has the smallest interior space out of all the 3 row SUVs.
I'd bought the 2021 CX-9 Grand Touring and it's been nothing but fantastic. Everything works really well - only issue i've had has been rattle in the door if there is too much bass (and that threshold isn't that high (36 vol / 63 total vol for speaker system)
Bring down your bass setting. I can listen to music at 45 and not hear rattling.
Did find solutions for that rattle it’s really annoying for me
@@x1weli673 No permanent solution yet - I'm at 19k miles after 1 year of ownership and I'd say it's largely solved itself? but it comes back. The solution I've been able to use the most is just louder music XD. Ain't nothing wrong with my car if I can't hear it (lol).
@@QuantumImperfections 😂 I will try to turn the volume up with R&B music lol
Had mine for over two years and absolutely love it. I’ll be buying another one after this. The driving and handling, practicality and the look of the car…love all of it.
We really enjoy your reviews. You are calm. You speak clearly and even enunciate. Take note Ben H.
I am a little shocked, at how tight the cockpit is. It looks like your knees were being pushed together. Maybe ok for soccer moms. But I don't think dudes are going to be comfortable for long periods of time. However; I believe Mazda makes some of the best everyday vehicles on the road.
I’m humbled by that Sam, thank you! And yes I agree the width is a pretty big con especially for a 3 row SUV like this
If both your knees are hitting the plastic then it means you're sitting too close. it may be best to extend the telescoping wheel so you can push the seat back a bit. good review btw. i love mine!
My seats don't go any further back and they still hit the hard trim edge on the door and on the center console.
It's really the only complaint I have about it.
Small third row and less roomy too. The looks are great. I hope they will make it a little bigger then it will be ok.
as a cx9 2021 owner, i recommend to own any cx9 with awd
Great review, I do not feel the car lethargic. Yes, it is heavy but 0-60 in 7.0 seconds is very respectable. I just leased the touring plus with black 20" wheels and it is great. The only missing feature that Mazda should put on every cx-9 is the bumper sensors. Such a big car shoudl have them in every single trim. The rest is amazing, quiet, and luxurious, with captain chairs, a power lift gate, and fog lights. Everything is for 450 per month!
Congratulations on the excellent deal my friend, I’m so happy you took advantage of their lease deals. There is hardly any interest on the lease so all your payments are going to the equity of the vehicle.
You’re right it’s definitely fine for street driving but it’s the refinement of it that’s truly next level. Love how quiet Mazdas are
I traded my 1994 Mazda 929 at 280k miles in 2007, purchased at 100k miles in 2000. Car was beautiful and never looked it's age. Major part replaced, starter.
And if it’s continuing how can you get one
CX-90 just around the corner! Already in other parts of the world! Will come to U.S. eventually like the CX-50!
Currently testing the 2023 CX-50 for the week will have a review out on it soon
the base engine is not bad for 3 row full size SUV but unfortunately other brands give you more HP and they give you more room inside the car and you can buy midsize SUV´s with nearly the same room inside and also a lot more HP. Thank you Kevin for your opinion.
Appreciate you my friend like always!
@@MeynMotorGroup thank you.
Mazda offers only one engine and the get up and go in this car is better than most in its class due to its turbo engine. For me it's not winding out the engine to 6 to 7000 RPMs but downlow torque where you use it most of the time to pass another vehicle or to enter onto a freeway. That's where this car shines. And in the very top end this car will stay with most of if not all in its class.
I really wanted to like this car when it first came out. Test drove it and was completed disappointed. It’s the longest in the class, yet it’s has the least usable interior space. The 3rd row is not usable and there’s barely any cargo/storage space. The telluride is shorter yet it offers so much more space. If I were to buy a 3 row suv, I want the versatility.
@@Wasabi9111
Let's get serious are you really going to pack your car down like a U-Haul truck? I only really pay attention to people that own the Mazda CX-9. Those that own it are very very happy with it. I will also mention consumer reports doesn't favor the Kia or Hyundai vehicles. As far as brand raking they're very low at this time. Kia ranked #19. Mazda was ranked #1 in 2021.
Hard to best the value of the Mazda, pretty smooth operator for the money. I'm not crazy about the looks, but one has survived one of the kids, so they are durable. As always, great honest and concise review. Still on the Trans Am road trip, in GA now, back to Fla tommorow.
You’re living the life sir! I wish more people would do what you did and buy a fun car like that especially in these times before EV takeover. And yea Mazdas are cool 😅
If they made an 02 with a bigger motor I would have bought it.
Yea 02 was the last year of that body style I was looking into those but no larger motor. Are you putting an exhaust on your Trans Am?
@@MeynMotorGroup Well as fate may have it, it already has the SLP catback Loudmouth, and the SLP lid. We just returned to SW Fla., and did about 2500 miles in the last few weeks, it was a dynamite trip. The Loudmouth for an extended trip probably not ideal, and the 6 speed was a little tough in New York, and DC traffic, but we made it home and the car was flawless, and returned 26.8 average loaded to the gills with us and luggage, so all good.
So epic yea SLP is def a must have package in the Trans Am glad you got it. Yea those Na V8s deliver great mpg on the highway super happy for you and glad you’re home safe. Tear it up on your local back roads 👍
you said slow? i drove my cx-9 long drive with 6 people and stuff going 140 to 150 uphill dont have problem with the power
Cool Kevin.
Appreciate you sir!
They need to bring the V6 engine back. I love how fast my 2008 cx9 sport. I would love to buy the 2022 but it’s slower than what I have. If they just put a V6 engine and the fast acceleration. Iam definitely buying it. I would love to race with it.
I love the interior of 2022 cx9. I prefer it over a lot of luxury SUVS
@@alexanderalex2829 why you need v6 if you have speed limits 2.5t have enough power to drive fast
@@yournightmare9999, must be young and not very wise.
Is it true that the CX9 getting discontinued last year is 2022?
Yes. They are making the cx-90 inline 6 350hp ish
The width is exactly why we didn’t go with the CX9.
The engine has plenty of power for its class. With its turbo charged engine it's very adequate and it's where you want it to be when merging onto a freeway or passing another vehicle. I disagree with this engine analysis. I own one and when I step on the gas it goes and it's satisfying!
Yea it’s adequate of course just noticeably slower than the smaller vehicles in the line up with the same engine again that’s to be expected it’s not a big deal
How is the fuel consumption of this car?

Meh
👊🏾👍🏾👍🏾
What about the infotainment not being touch screen? A big con for me
I hate touchscreens much rather have the rotary knob far less distracting
@@MeynMotorGroup in my opinion and experience , the rotary knob is not functional and not easy to get to anywhere on the screen especially with android auto , it's too difficult to use with rotary knob
@@memokane1 completely agree. Any new car needs to have CarPlay / AA and a touchscreen to use it. I use CarPlay 95% of the time. Recently got a new car wo CarPlay and the native in car system totally sux.
They made the new infotainment without a touchscreen?!? My '18 is touchscreen; I didn't realize that changed with the new model.
@@ariesbabie5971, it's for safety reasons.
It really needs a 6 cylinder as the older one had!! Its really gutless !!
Carbon package.
Yo bro
Hey bro I hope you’re doing great this morning. Posting so early still feels weird to me 😅
@@MeynMotorGroup Lol early bird catches the worm bro 🤝😎
@@MeynMotorGroup Hope as well for u too bro 🙏🏾🙏🏾😎👍🏾👍🏾
Pro: beautiful car
Con: the turbo WILL fail and destroy the engine. It’s a 4 cylinder ina 3-row suv. Do the math, because Mazda didn’t. Or maybe they did and don’t care.
I still think the CX-9 looks good despite it's 7 year old design, but that's about all I think I can agree with as far as this model's concern, to me the cons far out=weigh the pros! Where do I begin? Well, let's see, for starters, the underpowered engine is apparent compared to her competition, poor gas mileage, doesn't offer an Hybrid option, seven year old styling & technology, no Pano Roof option, antiquated infortainment unit & a lack of cargo space. I also want to add that the CX-9 lacks a more luxurious environment than other models offered in this category, and the top of the line model going for $49K, I just think it's asking too much for what you get. NowThe Jeep Cherokee L on the other hand checks all the boxes that the Mazda is lacking except for it's driving dynamics. The Jeep's design/styling is fresh & has off-road capabilities that the Mazda could only dream of. The Mazda is way over due for a major redesign, so I would have to place it at the bottom of it's segment...But Mazda does have the 2023 CX-60 or is it gonna be the CX-70 for the US market which I'm really excited about & I think give Mazda a boost that they desperately need to keep them relevant as a car company. I think Honda's gonna blow the competition out the water with their new HR-V, CR-V & Pilot, and I think Toyota will dominate with their new Crown & Sequoia ...CHEERS!
Same can say about the Honda Pilot bigger bt old also
To each his own. I have bought and driven 7 mazdas since 2013, include 2016 and 2020 cx9. They are road warriors, pure and simple. My kids drive 5s and 9s.
and service cost.....very tough to beat.
I also have a very high end Audi...an S model. Fast agile, and I can't stand it. Expensive to upkeep, always has nagging sensor issues, and in an emergency evasive action, there is real possibility you will go into orbit.
I also want Mazda to do better, but I don’t think they have the money to invest in new tech, that’s why everything is from a decade ago - infotainment, 5 speed auto, engine, lack of competitor EVs, etc. I loved Mazda growing up in the 90s, but I’m not sure they’ll be able to stay relevant much longer.
@@Wasabi9111 not sure what tech they are not investing in that you are alluding to. They just went through an entire redo of their entire line in the last decade. but I will agree on infotainment, but not on the ergonomics to use it. The dial and buttons by the arm rest are infinitely safer and easier to use then stuff I have experienced in other cars.
I can't get past the ugly exterior of this car. It's a pass for me.
