The CX-9 has a cabin that appears compact, with a smooth silhouette flowing towards the rear to create dynamic proportions. The tapered, slender windows and kicked-up beltline are shared with the CX-7, both inherited from Mazda's new SUV design DNA.
Whether it is the 18 inch alloys standard on the CX-9 Classic, or the 20 inch alloys on the Luxury, there will be no mistaking the sophisticated yet sporty nature of the CX-9. Not only do these wheels look great, but they have superior road holding capabilities.
Set in chrome housings with clear lens covers, the CX-9's halogen headlamps provide all the light you need to confidently navigate dark roads. Both grades receive fog lamps, large clearly visible rear tail lamps and a high mount stop lamp.
The large dual rear chrome exhaust extensions provide the CX-9 with a look of power and refinement. Attractively set on either side of the rear of the vehicle, all will envy the luxurious finish of the vehicle.
Standard on the CX-9 luxury, the electric sliding sun roof adds a touch of sophistication as well great practicality. Fantastic on hot days, when all you want is the wind blowing through your hair, the extra light into the cabin also provides the feeling of even greater space.
Not only demonstrating high levels of prestige, the side mirror indicator lights provide extra visibility to other drivers of your intensions to turn. Set high up on the door panel, this additional feature reduces the risk of vehicle collision.
Producing 204kW of power and 366Nm of torque, the CX-9 provides ample engine performance where required. Although in the form of a medium SUV, the CX-9 still delivers the free spirited performance renowned in Mazda vehicles.
In-line with the strictest emission standards in the world, the CX-9 not only delivers spirited performance, but does so in a manner that has less impact on the environment. Enjoy the spirited performance of the CX-9 with a clear conscience.
With all the convenience of an automatic transmission, but providing the option for manual gear shifting, the CX-9 6-speed activematic transmission perfectly compliments the vehicle. You will appreciate the smooth powerful acceleration delivered throughout the rev-range.
Getting the most out of the power performance, the CX-9 has an AWD Active Torque Split (ATS) system. An onboard computer using real-time data on steering angle, yaw rate, lateral G force and engine status, determines road surface and driving conditions, distributing the optimal torque to each wheel.
The CX-9 has front independent MacPherson struts with coil springs and double acting shock absorbers. The rear has a multi-link suspension with coil springs and double acting shock absorbers. This suspension system will have you gliding across all surfaces in comfort and ease.
The CX-9 utilises a drive-by-wire electronic throttle. Better communication with the throttle, responsiveness is greatly increased, resulting in improved control over the vehicle, making the driver feel more as one with the car.
Keeping all passengers of the CX-9 comfortable all year round is easy with the tri-zone air-conditioning system. With individual temperature controls to the two front seats and independent control to the rear seats, all passengers are well looked after.
To aid the driver in finding the ultimate driving position, the CX-9 driver seat is rake and slide as well as height adjustable. For even greater convenience and comfort, the luxury grade has 8-way power adjustment (driver) & 4-way for the passenger. Both driver and front passenger seats come with a heating function.
With so many storage spaces scattered throughout the cabin, you will have no problem finding a place for any item. Whether it's the large lockable glove-box, centre console, glasses storage compartment, cup holders or both front are rear door pockets, everyday practicality is the key.
The CX-9 Classic comes with a 6-speaker, in-dash 6-disc CD-player with MP3 compatibility. Upgrading to the Luxury grade will give you a premium Bose® 10 speaker system with a whopping 277 watt amplifier. Your favourite driving will never have sounded so good.
The CX-9 has a multi-function steering wheel. The ergonomically designed leather-wrapped wheel has controls to both the audio and cruise control systems. You will never have to take your eyes off the road when changing a music track, or setting the cruising speed when on a freeway.
So that you can get yourself into the ultimate driving position, the CX-9 has a tilt and telescopic adjustable steering wheel. No matter what your size is, this feature helps with giving you ever greater control and comfort whilst driving.
The braking system of the CX-9 utilises ABS with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Emergency Brake Assist. This ensures braking effort is applied by each wheel in response to the driving conditions and vehicle load, giving you the power to stop the car safely in its tracks.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) combined with a Traction Control System (TCS) is a standard feature on both CX-9 models. These combined features enhance and improve handling, by maximising the stability of the vehicle when cornering, on slippery surfaces, or in an emergency manoeuvre.
RSC is designed to minimise the potential risk of roll-over instances. Automatically applying brakes and changing the power delivered to individual wheels, this advanced safety technology is a must have in SUVs.
The CX-9 is equipped with 6 SRS airbags. Designed to inflate in the event of a collision, this vital safety technology will help protect the driver and passengers from body injury. Including driver and front passenger and side as well as curtain airbags, you'll all be in safe hands.
The intrusion-minimising brake pedal in the CX-9 is designed to collapse away from the driver. Greatly reducing the risk of leg injuries in the event of a collision, this safety feature is just another in the long list of Mazda safety zone features.
In larger vehicles it can be difficult to see what is behind you. For this reason the CX-9 comes standard with a reversing camera. By simply putting the car into reverse, the rear view camera will display the area behind the car on the audio touch screen, clearly showing you the way.
