The 2020 Mazda CX-9 is a crossover SUV that rewards drivers more than it does other passengers.

Pros
Very attractive
Well-done interior
Good safety gear
Engaging responsiveness

Cons
Lousy infotainment
Cramped third-row and cargo space
Limited lineup

By:

Mazda has given the CX-9 several upgrades for 2020, not least of which is a standard suite of driver-assistance features called i-Activsense. The bundle includes automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and lane-keeping assist. Also now standard are heated front seats with power adjustments for the driver, rain-sensing windshield wipers, automatic headlamps, and heated exterior mirrors. Touring, Grand Touring, and Signature models now come with a larger 9.0-inch infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, a new key-fob design, and power-adjustable second-row seats.

Pros
Snappy driving dynamics, great fuel economy, premium cabin.

Cons
Small cargo bay, third row is only for kids, low towing capacity.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Smooth new powertrains,
high-end cabin environs,
taut handling.

Cons
Confusing lineup of trims and powertrains,
some noses may wrinkle at the thought of a $60,000 Mazda,
third-row legroom is too snug for adults.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Strong overall performance
Powerful yet fuel-efficient engines
Comfortable ride quality and seats
Refined luxury-leaning interior

Cons
Below-average cargo capacity
Limited passenger space
Modest personal-item storage
Expensive for a non-luxury SUV
