About the Mazda CX-9
The Mazda CX-9 is a large family SUV that offers a compelling combination of space, handsome exterior styling, and a high-quality cabin.
It’s also surprisingly fun to drive and is powered by a gutsy 2.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine.
Seven seats are standard, though buyers can order a six-seat configuration in higher-spec variants that fit two luxurious ‘captain chairs’ in the middle row. The model range includes front- or all-wheel-drive versions, with the latter offering a higher braked towing capacity.
Now five years old, the Mazda CX-9 is a Wheels Car of the Year winner and continues to hold its own against younger rivals. It’s one of our favourite big family SUVs and even measures up favourably against models from more expensive luxury brands.
Seven-seater rivals include the Hyundai Sante Fe, Kia Sorento, Skoda Kodiaq, Toyota Kluger, and Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace.
