Due to the weather, we didn’t attempt any 0-60 timed runs, but did feel the Turbo S was faster, quicker and more fun to drive. The solid feel was safe and confident in all driving conditions, and the 4,899-pound (Turbo S) or 5,243-pound (PHEV) never felt heavy. The double wishbone front and multi-link independent rear suspension resulted in well-composed handling with a ride that was supple, but not soft or floaty. The smooth shifting 8-speed automatic transmission instantaneously uses driving data, based on the selected drive mode, to deliver the best traction in all conditions.

The CX-90 comes standard with i-Active AWD and Intelligent Drive Select with paddle shifters, which Mazda calls Mi-Drive, allowing the driver to select drive modes of Normal, Sport, Off-Road and Tow. The 12.3-inch digital cluster display has three easy-to-read round gauges with black faces and white letters, and includes a 7-inch multi-information display for the odometer, average fuel economy and many other readings. The long and low dash has a simple, clean and logical layout with three information screens. The front and rear door panels and center console have curley maple wood that compliments the fabric. Ian Hedge, senior manager automotive design at Mazda, explained that the dash and door panels are covered in multiple materials and tone-on-tone colors, featuring a woven fabric based on a traditional Japanese silk called Nishi Jin-Ori that has an accent hanging stitch design. That expands to 74.2 cubic feet with both rows of rear seats folded. The easy access power hatch opens to 14.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seat. Rear passengers get a center armrest with cup holders, adjustable headrests, map lights, ventilation vents (2nd and 3rd rows), and heated seats for the Turbo S and PHEV.

The front seats are either manual (Turbo) or power adjustable (Turbo S and PHEV) with heat and ventilation on the two upper trim levels. Even with the power panoramic sunroof, there is ample headroom for two six-footers up front, two or three adults in the second row and three passengers of smaller stature in the third row. The CX-90’s eight inches of ground clearance provided a clear outlook on the road. The proportions with a shorter front overhang and longer rear overhang give a visual of length, but not in an excessive way. The design proportions of the smooth body, meant to accentuate emotion, is without cladding and has tasteful chrome along the lower doors, rear and front lower fascia, roof rails and trimming the grille. The CX-90 exterior, employing the company’s Kodo: Soul of Motion design theme, is Mazda’s most refined crossover, starting with a more restrained grille and attractive LED front and rear lighting. The all-wheel drive system, with rear-wheel bias, is standard on all CX-90 models. This feature makes it possible, when there is a sufficient charge, to select the EV Mode button to efficiently drive in-town without using any gasoline.Īll engines use a drive-by-wire 8-speed automatic transmission with driver selectable drive modes. By pressing a center console button the battery will use the engine to charge up while driving. The CX-90 PHEV has a very handy and useful Charge Mode.
#WHITE MAZDA CROSSOVER HOW TO#
There is no mystery about how to stay away from gasoline stations for much of your in-town driving.
Even at the Level 1 charge rate, the battery will be topped-off by plugging it in overnight, just like you do every night with a mobile phone.
