The CX-90 and CX-70 are the most ambitious vehicles Mazda has ever sold in America. The CX-90 arrived for the 2024 model year to replace the CX-9, riding on a new rear-drive-based platform with a turbocharged inline-six engine paired with a mild-hybrid system, or a plug-in hybrid with a four-cylinder. It brought three rows of seats, a long-hood stance and a cabin that pushed Mazda closer than ever to luxury territory, with prices to match.
The CX-70, introduced a year later, was essentially a two-row CX-90 with sportier styling, aimed at buyers who did not need a third row. Reviewers praised both for their powerful, smooth engines, handsome cabins and confident handling, while noting a firm ride, cramped third row in the CX-90 and some jerky low-speed behavior in early transmissions. The pair shares its platform with the CX-60 and CX-80 sold in Europe, Japan and Australia.
The CX-70 proved to be a hard sell. Mazda dropped it from the American lineup and folded a two-row option into an expanded CX-90 range, although the CX-70 remains on sale in some other markets for now. Its rivals include the Toyota Grand Highlander, Honda Pilot, Kia Telluride, Hyundai Palisade, Ford Explorer and premium models like the Acura MDX and Lexus TX. This page follows the CX-90's updates and pricing, the CX-70's fate in markets such as Australia, reviews, recall notices and sales figures. It is a window into Mazda's ongoing push upmarket, and how it handles the big family SUV business, the most profitable part of the market, will say a lot about its future.
Mazda's big rear-drive-based SUVs with inline-six and plug-in power, the CX-90 three-row and the two-row CX-70, since folded into one lineup.
