Control:
Like other models in the Mazda lineup, the CX-9 handles better than most of the competition. Credits to the sporty chassis tuning and quick, precise steering to create the sporty character of the CX-9.
Long Distance Facilities:
Although the 4-cylinder engine makes a fair amount of noise when pushed, it should stabilize well at highway speeds. Likewise, the big Mazda is comfortable at highway speeds, with a well-controlled yet comfortable ride.
Luxurious:
Thanks to quality workmanship and a generous amount of premium materials, the CX-9’s cabin, especially in its Signature trim, resembles that of a luxury brand car. That said, at just over $48,000 as tested, the CX-9 also costs roughly as much as some premium crossovers.
