This was an excellent review. I wonder if the 2025 model will improve the performance of the transmission. A lot of reviews say it can get jerky at times.
Very new transmission for Mazda and I have no concern about reliability because well, it’s Mazda, but they’ll definitely tweak the transmission behaviour as time goes on :)
The only complaint I have is that the lower trim CX-90's have a very obvious "base" model look compared to the outgoing CX-9. The plastic cladding is much larger and slabbier, and the 19" look small (i can't believe this is the case). I think maybe on other colours, like the Machine Grey, or the Silver, it would be less pronounced. PHEV seems like its probably the way to go. I6 is ambitious but seems like a bit of an underachiever for what it is. I'm sure lots of room for improvement either way.
As in your testing my CX-90 PHEV at temperatures around 0C gets about 30km per charge. I was getting about 40km per charge at 20C and above, as your 0C charge range experience is about the same at least I know it's not just me.
Nope, you definitely lose some when it's cold. The electric heater is a nice touch. I still wished for a bit more range but for where and how I drive this would save me a lot of fuel regardless.
@@JustinPritchard More range would definitely be nice but for my driving I am only putting gasoline in it about once a month (I charge every night and in the day if I can).
@@mayeendoha9561 If it helps I saw this in a news article today... A Norwegian study by NAF and Motor examined the effect of cold temperatures on the range of electric vehicles (EVs) under winter conditions, Boosted writes. The research found a significant loss in range, with EVs losing an average of 24% compared to their official WLTP figures. The WLTP test is always conducted at 23°C, which is much higher than the cold conditions simulated in the study. Among the models tested, the Tesla Model S performed best, with only a 16% loss in range, while the Toyota bZ4X saw a much higher drop of 36%. This study mirrors findings from a similar U.S. investigation, where the Audi e-tron showed the least loss at 16%, and the Volkswagen ID.4 had the highest at 46%. The loss in range is primarily due to two factors: battery chemistry and energy use for cabin heating.

The 2 main factors affecting range in cold weather were battery chemistry and energy use for interior heating.

Justin, Another great review. You video's are improving with each review. You should have more subs. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Mark, appreciate that! And I plan to. Cheers from north Ontario

Good review.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great review!
awesome work. Details!
This is the best view I've seen on this Mazda
Thanks, that's what I like to hear! Glad you liked.
great review, I've watched many CX90 reviews and did not see the detail you provided elsewhere.

Great review. You might want to mention the fact that many owners are experiencing problems with their hybrid batteries.
he might mention the fact it will take 250,000 miles for this system to pay for itself in gas savings.
What do u lose when using regular gas?

what the range at
20 @ 40 km
0 @ 30 km
-10 @ 25 km?? can someone confirm
- @20 @ 0km

it will take 260,000 miles of driving for the gas savings to pay for this system
All I see is the brick that left my family stranded 900 miles from home.
