Mazda’s KODO: “Soul of Motion” design philosophy conveys a
sense of strength and energy manifested in the CX-9’s athletic stance,
elongated hood and tapered roofline. This design evokes a combination of
composed power and instantaneous movement, like a predator about to pounce in
the wild.
The 2017 Mazda CX-9 is powered by a 2.4 L 4 cylinder engine
coupled with a six speed transmission. The CX-9 happens to be one of the most
fuel efficient vehicles in its class; estimated to get up to 22 mpg in the city
and 28 mpg on the highway. It’s evident that the suspension has been adequately
tuned as corners are effortlessly taken and the overall driving experience is
smooth and pleasurable. The CX-9, when properly equipped, is capable of towing
up to 3,500 pounds.
Mazdas signature Predictive I-Activ AWD system monitors
changing road conditions and adjusts power delivery between tires for optimal
traction. This system is vital during inclement weather, it is however useful
year round- helping to improve overall grip by monitoring and adjusting how
much torque you need and where you need it.
The cabin of the CX-9 is sumptuously appointed with soft
touch surfaces featuring genuine materials such as real rosewood, metal, and
nappa leather. Most will be relieved to see physical knobs and buttons in
addition to the touchscreen in the center console, as relying solely on a touchscreen
can be daunting and frustrating. The power lift gate- standard on all models
but the base- contributes to the overall affluence of the CX-9.
The CX-9 comes standard with a 7 inch full-color touch
screen display, an audio system with 6 speakers, Bluetooth, and The Mazda
Connect Infotainment System; which includes voice command, a radio broadcast
data system, online internet integration, and a message center for SMS text
delivery and emergency notifications.
