Did you know that only one of these family seven-seat SUVs has airbags that will cover the third row occupants?
You'll find out which one in this video where Richard Berry takes two of the world's best seven-seat family SUVs and puts them head-to-head.
In this battle we have Toyota's new generation Kluger GXL Hybrid taking on the Mazda CX-9 GT SP. Both are all-wheel drives.
We've compared the Kluger GXL Hybrid and CX-9 GT SP for their value, features and price, their engine specs and fuel economy, also for their safety systems, practicality and boot space, and their servicing costs.

The real winner is Richard Berry....for his style of reviewing....👍
Can’t agree more!
Better for a circus
Love your reviews Richard, keep it up!
CX9 owner here, so I'm biased, but surely the Kluger is only more comfortable until you have an accident with your kids in the third row. You only get a split second to deal with an impending collision, which is certainly not enough time to re-prioritise your purchasing decisions and trade comfort for safety. Both of these cars are great and give you options regarding what your priorities are (driving dynamics and style win it for me), but a minimum standard should apply.
What fuel returns you getting with it?
@@petecotter6790 my dad used to own a cx9 azami 2020, it got around 8.5l/100km after a month or two, at the beginning of the usage of the car it was closer to 13l, you will need to have to drive it for a bit for the ECU to tune to your driving style and save fuel. We got around 700-800km on a full tank on 98
@@oplisderi3164 using less fuel because engine has bedded in, or worn in. Rings wear in less producing less friction. Some manufacturers I have heard, changing the tune after the initial run in period, running a bit rich for extra safety in ignition timing. We had a 2020 cx 5 turbo and was a pig on fuel! Never got below 11 around town
My money will be on Mazda CX9 just because this has an automatic transmission not cvt like Kluger and Bose sound, sunroof, 4 cylinder turbo engine will be more reliable in long run, bigger/better display/screen which is easy to via rotary dial while driving, bugger wheels, lovely seat leather n colour and it doesnt looks like a Rav4.....
The CX9 screen and interior fit does look better, but i also like all the little cubby holes on the toyota. BTW the CVT in the Toyota isnt one of those metal belt types. I would shy away from those too, but like the Camry etc, this has metal cogs all over. Worst explanation ever, i know.
Like the effort and creativity in doing car video
Hi Richard, with the new 2.4T petrol replacing the V6 Kluger , is there a scope to do a comparison again with cx-9 ?
Does toyota give any discounts or the price is only as per the driveaway price on their website.
First glimpse on the Toyota i thought it was a Subaru Forester 😂
I do not really get how the review shows the third row space in Kluger is better than the CX9 as I have recently inspect and test drive both cars, the third row for CX9 you can easily fit for a audlt with 175cm high with reasonable knee and leg space, however the Kluger third row for the same size adult they will find almost no leg and knee space and it is awful third row design compare with the previous generation.
Carsguide must have very special camera and measuring standard when come with reviewing the third row... Paid and Sponsored by Toyota?
I like the intro
According to carsguide, the Australian crash testing expert view is "ANCAP testing protocol deems the airbag coverage appropriate in three-row models if the safety device covers window and glass areas, and in the new Kluger's case, that "the occupants of all three seating rows are protected by side curtain airbag".
I owned both amazing cars. sophisticated design and powerful on road stance until i realised it was only a dream.
I predict a comback of luxury wagons, like the Outback because based on the pricing of these things, and the fact most are based on the road car wagon/sedan underpinnings anyway, just don't seem worth it. Unless you need 7 seats...
My 2021 Mazda CX-9 azami is doing 9/100km. Test the Mazda again!
Great review and always a pleasure to see Richard! 👌
Sarcasm?
Two different kinds of buyers here, Mazda have the impression but Kluger have the practical style & design approach. Kluger AWD will be my next buy, the confidence it gives to go mostly anywhere and all years long is insane. I myself can't image a CX9 can last.
You are my favourite reviewer. Others are boring, sorry others. BTW i think review should have shown some of the tech relating to the Hybrid function, eg screen info. For ppl buying a new car it might be their first hybrid, and i think it's a big selling point / deciding factor.
Same he is funny and he tells a lot of information
Toyota won’t give any discounts, Mazda will
In Mazda, a adult can sit in the third row, not in the kluge
The interior of CX9 is luxurious and material feels soft and expensive. Kruger gives you the same old cheap plastic
I honesty wish you were reviewing the latest Commodore vs Falcon 2021. No harm in dreaming?
Just one correction the new Kluger side curtain airbags do go all the way to the rear third row which you can verify by watching the Ancap 5-star safety crash test video on youtube. I had my first drive of the new 2021 Kluger Grande today and needless to say I signed the papers when we got back to the dealership.. Toyota has definitely listened to its customers on this one and updated the interior cabin. It reminded me of my first drive in my pops Landcruiser without that weighted front end that you get from the heavy engines on most Toyotas but was effortless to drive like a CX3. This vehicle will sell out fast for sure. Make sure to get the Hybrid, such an amazing driving experience. :)
Other brands may have a bunch of electronics more, but Toyota delivers cars which spend more time on road and less time on mechanics workshop. In ten years time, there will be more 2021 klugers still running while you would be lucky to see 1 CX9 around. No brainer.......
Big oversight with the airbags on the Kluger. The Front cabin looks like a toy car crash.
Mazda wins for me but the Kluger will outsell no matter how ugly.... Australians weird love affair with the big T brand continues!
Toyota fanboy here. I love this video :)
Well done mate 👍😂😄
New Toyota Kluger front look like 10 years old Kluger it's not surprised less features costly then others
If we see Mazda cx9 , New Nissan Pathfinder, New KIA, Hyundai Palisades
Have much better features then Toyota .
Something is wrong in your testing if the claimed economy is 9L/100km and you are getting 13.9L 😅
More back to back comparisons please
Don't waste your money on 2020 cars or 21 because the 22/23 there will be major improvements across all brands
Except youll have to wait till 2025 to buy one. Called Ford today to enquire about the upcoming 2021/22 Everest titainium plug in hybrid told its going to be a min one and a half year wait.. that means at least two to three with this covid and chip shortages.
Lol. And in 2023 there will be major improvements in 24/25.
Subaroyota kluorester VS Mazda CX9
Toyota now tries to cheap out on the interiors just because of blind popularity among most Australians .Other car manufactures are offering digital cockpit systems and much posher interiors than Toyota and what's with the aftermarket 8 inch jbl touchscreen Toyota ? why not we get 12.1 inch touchscreen like other western markets for price of almost $80000 for the top range Kluger.
Agree the quality of Toyota fit and finish is nowhere close to the Cx 9. Also drive is dull. The only thing Toyota does well is the engines. Third row in Mazda is also better than new Kluger,
Is Kluger & Highlander the same?
Yes, Kruger for Australia and highlander for America
Yes, Hyundai had the rights to "Highlander" name in Australia.
The Dick is back. One of my fav presenters that keep the reviews interesting.
Sorento would dominate this xD
my guy just likes the cx9 to be honest
Toyota is winning like always
Lol great review as always. Love both of these cars normally but I just cannot stand the new look of the kluger… looks americanised to the maxxx…
Would anybody believe you that that Kluger is a new car actually no points for styling
Berry is the best
This host man over 190cm whichever seat in the 3 rd still small and people need to push 2rd front then every adults fit there remember this any SUV 3rd tight for adults, if you want bigger 3rd buy Carnival or Odyssey or Tarago or Alphard
Bros are kluger has hybrid and e4 drive
Cons are not good quality interior and over price.
CX9: luxury interior 2.5T engine
:5 years old design more fuel consumption
Kluger will last more years with less maintenance .
My friend’s father had old prado and they exchanged after 20 years with new Prado. No issues with vehicle and Very low maintenance.
Reliability vs style 😉
Is Richard Berry the most entertaining car reviewer hit like 👍
And the CS9 don’t have ac in the back
Yes it does
And won’t use a CVT
Mazda wins
Kluger with hybrid wins all day, everyday.
It's the knock out blow until Mazda cx9 hybrid ever comes out
What an awful lighting, i cant see any thing
Toyota hybrid any day.
Kluger doen't worth it. Inside looks bad, blurry camera.
Carsguide continues to make bad reviews even after so many years. Maybe you don't care about the monetization of your videos and just enjoy doing reviews the way you like them...
5:1 ratio is unheard of in today's age. Most people have 20:1 or even more
Annoying intro
If it comes with a CVT then it's a lemond!
Toyota have mastered the cvt for the hybrid models, unlike Honda, Mitsubishi and Nissan
Toyota Freddy Kruger
😂😂😂😂😂😂
sooo cringe
Please don’t let this fool do another review. Very uncomfortable to watch! Maybe Matt Watson can give you some pointers.
