Finished in beautiful Deep Crystal Blue Mica over Black Leather, this 2024 Mazda CX-90 PHEV Preferred AWD has only 32,745 miles and combines three-row versatility with a sophisticated plug-in-hybrid powertrain, 8-speed automatic transmission, full-time all-wheel drive, premium leather interior, second-row captain's chairs, heated front seats and an impressive collection of driver-assistance technology.
Its original equipment sheet shows a $49,945 MSRP, with destination bringing the original retail price to $51,400.
But the numbers only explain part of this CX-90.
What makes it special is how Mazda approached the family SUV differently.
Underneath the CX-90 is a sophisticated plug-in-hybrid drivetrain, combining a four-cylinder gasoline engine with electrification rather than asking the gasoline engine to do everything alone.
The factory mechanical specification includes:
This is what makes the PHEV so compelling.
For shorter trips, you have the benefit of plugging the vehicle in and utilizing stored electrical energy.
For longer journeys, you're not building the trip around charging stops.
Plug it in when it's convenient.
Take it across the state when life demands it.
The heart of the electrical side of the PHEV system is a 17.8-kWh lithium-ion traction battery.
According to the original equipment sheet, Mazda equipped the CX-90 with a 7.2-kW onboard charger, with listed charging times of approximately:
6.67 hours on 110/120V
and only:
That means the CX-90 can fit charging into everyday life rather than making everyday life revolve around charging.
Come home.
Plug it in.
Let the vehicle replenish while you're doing something else.
That's what electrification should feel like.
One particularly interesting engineering decision is Mazda's use of an:
Rather than allowing the electrified drivetrain to erase the sensation of traditional gear changes, the CX-90 retains a multi-speed automatic transmission.
That's part of Mazda's philosophy with the CX-90.
Efficiency matters.
Electrification matters.
But the way a vehicle feels from behind the steering wheel still matters too.
This example is equipped with automatic full-time all-wheel drive.
For a three-row family SUV—especially here in Washington—that's a meaningful advantage.
Rain.
Cold mornings.
Mountain passes.
Weekend trips.
Changing road conditions.
The CX-90 is engineered to provide power through all four wheels rather than leaving its premium ambitions behind the moment the weather changes.
And that's one of the strongest aspects of this particular combination:
PHEV efficiency without giving up AWD confidence.
Here's where the CX-90 becomes more interesting technically.
Mazda equipped it with:
paired with a:
Those are sophisticated suspension layouts for a three-row SUV.
The chassis specification also includes:
It's evidence that Mazda didn't treat the CX-90 merely as a box designed to carry seven people.
The chassis was engineered to matter to the person driving it.
The braking system also integrates the hybrid powertrain.
The CX-90 features:
with:
Regenerative braking allows the electrified drivetrain to recover energy during deceleration rather than simply turning all of that motion into wasted heat.
It's another example of the gasoline and electric sides of the CX-90 working together as one integrated system.
For families, this may be one of the most important options on the entire vehicle.
This CX-90 was factory configured with:
The original equipment sheet specifically notes that this changes capacity from eight passengers to seven passengers, while adding an armrest and center walk-through.
That center passage can make a tremendous difference in daily life.
Kids don't necessarily have to fold a second-row seat forward every time they need the third row.
Passengers get more individual space.
And the cabin takes on a more premium configuration.
It's less like sitting on a bench and more like having your own seat.
Behind those captain's chairs is a proper third-row seat.
The third row features a 60/40 split configuration with manual fold-into-floor operation and adjustable head restraints.
That gives you flexibility depending on the day.
Need seven seats?
You've got them.
Need additional cargo room?
Fold the third row.
Need some combination of passengers and luggage?
The split-folding design gives you options.
Because a family vehicle needs to adapt as quickly as the family's plans do.
Inside, this Preferred model is finished in Black Leather Seat Trim.
The cabin includes:
It's a thoughtful mixture of premium materials and family-friendly equipment.
Mazda didn't simply make the CX-90 larger.
It made it feel more special.
Both front occupants benefit from heated front bucket seats, while the driver's seat adds 8-way power adjustment and power lumbar support.
That's especially welcome on cold Pacific Northwest mornings.
And because this is a PHEV, Mazda Connected Services even adds remote climate functionality.
So the comfort can begin before you get inside.
The CX-90 has a surprisingly extensive collection of connected functionality through Mazda Connected Services.
The equipment sheet lists capabilities including:
Remote charge control is particularly valuable on a plug-in hybrid because it allows the connected technology to work directly with the electrified powertrain.
Long drives and traffic become easier thanks to:
Rather than behaving like traditional cruise control that simply attempts to maintain one fixed speed, radar-based cruise technology is designed to help manage following distance as traffic conditions change.
For highway driving and congested commutes, that's one of those features that can make a substantial difference in how tiring a trip feels.
The CX-90 also includes a comprehensive lane-assistance system.
The original equipment sheet identifies:
These systems don't replace an attentive driver.
They provide another layer of awareness around one.
And in a family SUV, that's exactly where modern technology has the opportunity to be genuinely useful.
Changing lanes and backing out of crowded parking spaces are supported by:
Add the factory backup camera, and the CX-90 provides assistance in several of the situations drivers encounter every single day.
Not just on a perfect highway.
Not just during a demonstration.
In the school parking lot. At the grocery store. During the commute.
That's where technology earns its place.
Here's another technical detail worth highlighting.
The safety specification identifies:
Torque-vectoring strategies can help influence vehicle behavior by managing forces at individual wheels, complementing the full-time AWD and stability-control systems.
The CX-90 also incorporates Dynamic Stability Control, Electronic Stability Control and Roll Stability Control.
It's a sophisticated collection of chassis electronics for a three-row family SUV.
Technology is centered around a 10.25-inch full-color center display.
The infotainment system includes:
Six USB inputs are particularly useful in a seven-passenger SUV.
Because nothing tests family harmony quite like:
“My phone is dying. Who took the charger?”
Above the cabin is a power one-touch sliding and tilting glass sunroof with sunshade.
Open it on a beautiful day and the dark leather cabin immediately feels brighter and more spacious.
Combined with the second-row captain's chairs and three-row layout, it adds another layer of openness to an already substantial interior.
Then there's the exterior.
It was a no-cost factory color on this example, and it's a particularly elegant choice for the CX-90.
The exterior also features:
The result is upscale without being overstated.
It's a family SUV that doesn't look like you've surrendered to owning a family SUV.
The CX-90 rides on:
finished in silver metallic and wrapped in:
The larger tire sidewall is also a welcome choice on a vehicle intended to cover real-world roads rather than simply look impressive sitting in a showroom.
The rear cargo area is accessed through a power liftgate, and the vehicle also includes concealed cargo-area storage.
When your hands are full with groceries, bags or everything that comes along with traveling with kids, it's exactly the sort of feature that becomes less of a luxury and more of a daily convenience.
The mechanical specification also includes factory towing equipment with Trailer Sway Control.
The supplied equipment sheet does not provide a towing-capacity figure, so rather than invent one, we'll stick with what the documentation confirms: Mazda equipped this CX-90 with a trailer-sway-control system integrated into its chassis technology.
The original equipment sheet lists gasoline fuel-economy figures of:
24 MPG City
27 MPG Highway
And remember—this is also a plug-in hybrid with a 17.8-kWh traction battery, meaning the ownership experience isn't captured by gasoline MPG figures alone.
That's the advantage of the PHEV concept.
Electric capability for everyday driving, gasoline flexibility when the road trip gets longer.
When new, this CX-90 carried:
MSRP: $49,945
Deep Crystal Blue Mica: $0
Black Leather Seat Trim: $0
2nd-Row Captain's Chairs: $0
Original Shipping Charge: $1,455
And that price bought an SUV with a remarkably diverse list of capabilities.
Plug-in hybrid.
Full-time AWD.
Three rows.
Seven seats.
Leather.
Advanced safety technology.
A sophisticated suspension.
And enough luxury to make the everyday family drive feel like something more.
Family vehicles often represent compromise.
You need more seats.
More doors.
More cargo room.
More safety technology.
And somewhere along the way, the emotional side of choosing a car can disappear.
Mazda clearly didn't think it had to.
The CX-90 gives you the space your life requires without treating the driver like an afterthought.
Double-wishbone front suspension.
Multi-link rear suspension.
Full-time AWD.
An 8-speed automatic.
Regenerative braking.
Plug-in hybrid technology.
It's practical because it needs to be.
It's interesting because Mazda wanted it to be.
