Expert Reviews

Expert reviews:

Even with seating for up to seven passengers, the CX-9 still offers plenty of that Mazda magic.

Pros
A rare fun-to-drive SUV,
near-luxury cabin trimmings,
top-quality fit-and-finish
Cons
Limited cargo space with rearmost seat in use,
tight quarters for third-row passengers.

The 2021 Mazda CX-9 crossover SUV rewards drivers with good road manners, but takes a penalty in third-row space.

Pros
Very attractive
Well-done interior
Good safety gear
Engaging responsiveness

Cons
Distracting infotainment controller
Cramped third-row and cargo space
Limited lineup

By:

thecarconnection.com

Pros
More ground clearance than a regular wagon,
plenty of space for cargo,
nicely equipped with standard tech features.

Cons
Poky with base four-cylinder,
boring to drive,
engine drones during acceleration thanks to the continuously variable automatic transmission.

By:

caranddriver.com

Pros
Spacious cabin and smooth, comfortable ride
Optional turbocharged engine provides plenty of power
Loading the roof or cargo area is easier than in most SUVs
Above-average off-road ability

Cons
Slow acceleration from standard engine
Clunky engine auto stop-start system
