2016 Mazda CX-9 Customer Reviews

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  This car is fun to drive. I am definitely partial to Mazdas now. Good acceleration, braking and handling. Ride could be a bit smoother, but it’s at least as good as all the competition.

• Cargo Space

  Perfect in between size. Not a giant like the Honda Pilot (previously had a 2017), or other large SUVs, but has plenty space for our family with 2 small kids.

• Reliability

  Driven almost 5k miles and no problems.

Cons

• Fuel Economy

  Definitely not the best fuel economy, but not horrible. Average is 24-27 depending on how much highway I drive.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  feels like a luxury car

• Cabin Noise

  sound insulated inside like a luxury car

Cons

• Interior Space

  it's not really a con but with the 3rd row up there is virtually no space for cargo in the back

Pros

• Technology and Entertainment

  Love that music connects and sounds beautiful

• Ride and Handling

  Smooth ride, very comfortable

• Power

  Resisting the urge to put the pedal down is quite difficult!

Cons

• Seat Comfort

  Seats are fairly comfortable but can't ever seem to position in a way that suits me. Also not having the settings available is annoying as my spouse is much taller and needs to adjust every time we switch.

• Styling

  Have noticed a blind spot when trying to look out passenger side window

• Cabin Noise

  Seems loud unfortunately

Cons

Pros

• Reliability

  I have a strong opinion that Mazda puts a lot of track tech into their production models, this translates to performance under stress, and longevity for the casual driver.

• Cabin Noise

  Who likes cabin noise? :)

• Styling

  I would consider the Mazda designs to generally be ahead of the curve, especially in it's 'own class'.

Cons

• Braking

  Brake pads seem to be flawed, and squeek at low braking speeds, like in the big old line at In & Out. Mazda explained that this was something they see with both the CX-5 & CX-9

• Power

  The power is weird in certain situations, in a moment where you take off relatively slow, and realize you need some gas in a hurry, if you are not in 'Sport' mode, it can feel dicey.

• Technology and Entertainment

  Can be slow to connect at times, and can glitch with regard to the Bluetooth connection. However, I do use all iOS devices, and Apple can be at fault in some cases as well, not sure how the Android experience plays out.

• Fuel Economy
