Mazda CX-9 TC

2016–2024 · TC · suv

Second-generation CX-9. Skyactiv chassis, debuted at the 2015 LA Auto Show. 2.5L Skyactiv-G Turbo I4 only (227hp on 87 octane / 250hp on 93 octane, 310 lb-ft torque). 6-speed Skyactiv automatic. FWD or i-Activ AWD. Three rows, seven passengers. The first Mazda to use the 2.5T Skyactiv-G Turbo engine in volume, which later spread to the CX-5/Mazda6/Mazda3. Discontinued after the 2024 model year, replaced in the Mazda lineup by the new CX-90.

Watch out: Skyactiv-G fuel-dilution-in-oil pattern, plus cooling-system condition matters more on the turbo than on N/A Skyactiv engines. Heavy three-row weight on the front axle wears front lower control arm bushings earlier than on lighter Mazdas. Otherwise no major scandals.
