    Finally, as expected, Brian nails what makes a Mazda so much better than a Kia Telluride or Hyundai Pallisade. The driving experience. Spot on sir. I'm going to let Mazda sort out the 1st couple of years bugs on the CX-90 before I pull the trigger on one. Until then, I'll be happy with our CX-5 and CX-9!

      It really depends what your priorities are. Kia Telluride is based on Sedona minivan and still provides unrivaled 3rd row space, and also more cargo space with all 3 rows up. But nobody in their right mind would call the Kia a Driver’s SUV.

    I purchased a new Mazda 2 years ago and kept it for a year. I mostly appreciated the car, but not so much the dealer experience. The finance dept was not on top of things, and had to return to do paperwork 3 different times, and the service dept was even worse. There is more to being “near luxury” besides just the car. If Mazda wants to be seen as such, they have to have a much higher standard at the consumer level.
    BTW, I replaced that with an Audi S4 and had maybe the greatest car buying and service experience ever!

      @@BrianMakse I agree…that’s why I ended up at an Audi dealer. Lol.
      Seriously though, a lot of smaller cities, only have 1 Mazda dealer. So even if I had bought somewhere else, I’m still relying on a subpar dealer to service the car.

    I am waiting for cx70. But this shows the effort Mazda put in their vehicles.
    I originally owned MadaSpeed6 and absolutely loved it then moved to a
    mazda6 2009. Still enjoying it.
    Now I want something hybrid or plug in.

    Brian at least a couple auto journalists have complained about the transmission being abrupt or not smooth at slow speeds and makes whining, unpleasant noises during hard acceleration. I’m wondering if you have experienced any of that.

      This is where PHEV variant comes in. The electric drive smooths out the edges. The 4-cylinder is well isolated and only shows its tone at full throttle.

    Great review! It has great presence and a beautiful interior. I only wish the front had a little more sharpness and drama. It's a little subtle to me to be making a statement of intent and the lack of exhaust finishers instead of tucking them under the bumper! like a scolded dog kills me. Almost a home run!

    Thought about the CX90, but too many first year systems and components. Decided on the Pilot over the Telluride. Made the mistake of going into a Mazda dealership. Should have my CX90 by the end of the month. Mazda might have some bugs that need to be worked out, but the handling dynamics are amazing for this class of vehicle and at this price.

    Very nice SUV, and great review. Apparently the timing chain (not a belt, right?) is in the rear of the engine a la BMW, so servicing that means pulling the motor 😞 Though I guess you could service the tensioners without doing that...? To be fair though, while I haven't tried to find the service interval for the chain &/or tensioners, the average car owner will have sold this and moved on long before there will be a need to deal with it. I on the other hand keep my cars for a decade or more (still have a 2001 Suburban!) so it matters for me.
