In Grasso’s Garage this week, it’s Mazda back and better than ever. Their full size SUV, the 2023 CX-9 is exactly how they keep consumers and families coming back for more, and for good reason.
Whether price is your top priority, or dependability or appearance, Mazda really delivers. Its shark-like front fascia and outstanding reliability are what consumers want, and at this price point I can’t think of anything better.
With three rows of seats, providing comfortable seating for six, the 2023 CX-9 is the grandfather to our recently tested CX-30 and father to the CX-50. A SKYACTIV 2.5L Turbocharged engine is on board, producing a commuter-like 227 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. Our Signature AWD tester came wrapped in Soul Red Crystal Metallic — or what painters nationwide call “the nicest red" they have ever seen.
