Nice Review! I bought my CX70 Turbo S Premium Plus about a month ago and every day I find something more to love about it. For the money, there's nothing that quite compares and I think it's perfectly appropriate to say it's a luxury SUV. How much more luxurious could it get than when you're inside one. And that Turbo Inline 6 has loads of power, which is smooth and exciting.
@@travisjames9292 EXTREMELY comfortable is one word to describe the seats. They are firm, but supportive. I prefer firm seats as opposed to soft seats.
I bought the CX-90 a few weeks ago and love it. I do agree that it would be nice if the suspension was a little softer for handling bumps. I have the base trim and base engineer so the cost was under 40k. Still packing with features and amazing drivetrain at that price!
That base I6 engine (w/ 280 hp) & Preferred trim (not avail. on Premium- or PremiumPlus-only CX-70s) surely bumps down the “luxury” stuff, but cost too! The beauty of my CX-70 PHEV Premium pricing @$54,400 (+ dest/del. chrgs) are the $2-$3K Mazda rebates & $12,850 in matching HEV incentives from MazdaFS, which for me in Colorado total well over $14K for leasees. So my out-the-door cost is barely more than that of your base I6 CX-90 Preferred.
@@DeeEllEff congratulations, sounds like you got an amazing deal. The incentives offered in South Florida region on PHEV’s and not nearly as aggressive. Might have been worth a trip to Colorado to buy one there! Must be nice to drive in EV mode and not use gas. My only concern with PHEV’s is in the long term. Eventually the battery will need to be replaced, hopefully not for a long time. Will you be able to buy a new battery or have to install a refurbished one…and what would the cost be?
@@MrDilbert111 Well, I believe by law EV/PHEV batteries are covered for 8 years or 100K (similar to how new vehicle exhaust systems must pass a “sniffer” test for a set amount of time and/or miles). But who knows: IRL it could be a bit less or somewhat more.
I like everything until the 6:00 mark (esp. the grin-inducing laughter when you step on the gas of any Mazda). Why do you show a picture of a Honda while discussing the price of the CX70? A little confusing...
@@GrandPrixGTP02 Perhaps keep it in a separate corner instead of putting it next to the reviewed car info, like pricing, etc. Your grin is part of the review, and conveys much important info to the viewer.

I got one last month as well. Nearly 1700 miles on it 😁
How are the seats in it?

@@Rodghost1 As anyone who likes driving (as opposed to being chauffeur-driven) does!
Great Review probably the best coverage on the CX-70 the other reviewers didn't hesitate to hate on the CX-70

I Love your reaction and the appreciation of this beautiful SUV that I also admire and wish to Drive some day. The wheels is very much bmwish.

It's my title card. The Honda is like my signature now bc it's my daily driver. My bad for the confusion

Are the seats better then the cx5? I noticed my but starting to hurt in the cx5
Hope so. My 10-year-old CX-5’s seats are more like slabs now.😠
12:26 There's more underfloor storage space if you lift that cover up further
