Our first impression of the Mazda CX -9 Grand Touring of 2012 is that you get a good ratio of sports and comfort for $ 40,000. It seems that compared to other cars of this class, Mazda SC-9 costs rather big money. The salon is spacious and the seats are convenient and ergonomic. The interior is well equipped, although I am still not a big fan of touch screens for the navigation and entertainment display. But this is a large screen, all the information is easy to read from it.
Under the hood, the V6 engine feels strong, easily towing the entire weight of the car at 2120 kg. The crossover is controlled well. The trip is supple, not like other big cars. With the third rows of seats in the place there is very little affordable cargo space, but there is still enough space for several bags of potatoes.
We noticed that on this CX-9 the same as on the Mazda CX-5 poor quality plastic, it is very hard. Perhaps we just tested too many expensive cars recently, but I don’t think so. Yes, I agree that the materials inside could change a little (although I will say that the material in CX-5 is better than in CX-9), but in general everything is fine (really convenient seats).
Want to sell a car, but you don’t have time to search for a client? Auto Airport ransom company will buy your car in just 40 minutes. Experts themselves will remove your car and pay with you in cash. Now, it has become easier to sell a car.
Mazda CX-9 weighs almost as well as the long Honda Odyssey, but Mazda feels easier and goes better. She does not rumble, the suspension is not as soft and not like a gesture. I like Mazda better than Honda.
This car has a good improved sound insulation, a smooth automatic gearbox and a Six -cylinder V6 engine that exudes decent power. We can say that the new Mazda CX-9 is one of the best among cars with seven seats.
The 2012 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring has an inevitably easily forgotten style, both inside and outside of all crossovers that I have ever experienced. Of course, the inside of the car suffers from the inability of Mazda to design a really beautiful interior. Functional? Yes, but attractive? I don’t think so.
Although on the road, my boredom to the CX-9 began to soften. Of many crossovers with three rows of seats that we have experienced recently, this is one of the best. He feels easier than in fact thanks to his 3.7-liter V6, and the checkpoint is beautifully selected to the engine (this is something that Mazda really knows how to do better).
So, why don’t we see Mazda CX-9 on the roads anymore? It seems to me that because at this standard price you could get a pleasantly loaded Ford Explore or even start looking at the new Infiniti JX35.
