Overview
The Mazda CX-90 is a mid-size crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by Mazda, introduced in 2023. A two-row version, marketed separately as the Mazda CX-70, was introduced in 2024, featuring the same dimensions and engine options with minor styling variations. It is the largest SUV produced by the company and is built on the Large Product Group platform, which features a longitudinal engine and rear-biased all-wheel-drive system shared with the smaller CX-60. The CX-90 replaced the CX-9 in North America, and like its predecessor, it is not marketed in Japan or Europe, despite being manufactured in Japan.
Powertrain
Available with mild hybrid and plug-in hybrid options, the CX-90 and CX-70 were Mazda's first production models to feature hybrid powertrains in North America.
Safety
The 2024 CX-90 and 2025 CX-70 both received the Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Both models earned Good ratings in all categories except for the headlights on non-turbo versions, which were rated Acceptable because adaptive headlights are only available on turbo models.

Check before you buy
- Ask for a battery state-of-health report: the traction battery is the main value driver in a used hybrid or electric car. Battery SOH tool
- Confirm the charging inlet and the speeds your market supports; plug types differ between regions.
- Check the emissions equipment (particulate filter, NOx treatment) and the destination country's emissions rules; some markets restrict used diesels.
- Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
- Test the four-wheel-drive system (transfer case, differentials) and look for uneven tyre wear.
- Read the auction sheet grade and notes, and verify the odometer against service and inspection records. How to read an auction sheet
