Here is What to Know About the 2023 Mazda CX-9

The Mazda CX-9 will go almost unchanged for 2023 which means that it keeps all of the attributes that have made it a success in years prior. Here are some details you need to know about it if you are interested in a new three-row SUV.

An impressive level of driving enjoyment

Despite its size, the 2023 Mazda CX-9 offers a high level of enjoyment that makes it one of the most fun to drive vehicles in its segment. This is due to the Mazda tradition of making engaging vehicles that appeal to driving enthusiasts with their communicative steering system and their refined suspension tuning. In addition to these elements, the 2023 Mazda CX-9 is available only with the turbocharged 2.5L Skyactiv engine, which is the most powerful engine offered by Mazda in Canada. This powertrain is capable of delivering up to 250 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels when using 93-octane fuel. In order to let you save at the pump, this engine is also designed to run efficiently on 87-octane fuel, in which case it will deliver 227 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.

The practicality

The 2023 Mazda CX-9 is a very practical vehicle that has been designed and engineered with families in mind. This is why the CX-9 is offered with a choice of seating arrangements that includes a standard second-row bench seat that makes it able to accommodate up to 7 passengers. If you don’t need to carry this many people, the available captain’s chairs can replace this bench in order to increase the level of comfort for everyone on board while still making it possible to carry 6 passengers. If cargo is what you need to transport, all of the rear seats can be configured to open up to 2,016 litres of loading space.

 A large catalogue

Due to its five trim levels that allow a larger amount of choice for every buyer, the 2023 Mazda CX-9 is one of the most affordable three-row SUVs on the market as well as one of the most luxurious. Indeed, the entry-level GS model with its $41,550 MSRP is already well equipped but each subsequent model adds a layer of comfort and luxury that ends in the Signature model, which almost competes with premium models due to its Nappa leather interior and its real wood accents.

Summer in British Columbia is hard on a vehicle that is not built for it. The roads change quickly — from Burnaby's surface streets to gravel forest service tracks north of Squamish, from flat highway straightaways to the switchbacks above Alta Lake. The gear multiplies: bikes, boats, paddleboards, tent bags, coolers, wetsuits. The passengers have opinions about where to sit and how long the...
