    I bet the third row seat package on a SUV gets used about 2% of the time. It is just a flavor of the week IMO. Give me a 2 row with the space of the third row dedicated to storage space. i think Mazda is doing a really good job on their vehicles.

    I agree w you, I don’t get the hate on 2 row SUVs all of a sudden. I just returned my VW Atlas Cross Sport, which looked so much better than 3 row Atlas imo. I have one 2 year old, so I don’t need a 3rd row and I loved the bigger 2nd row and extra space in the back. Debating an ICE Mazda cx70 or 2 row Jeep Grand Cherokee for my next lease, just can’t decide, but I need to see the CX70 in person.

    ​@@briguyinsigo look at a 90 with the third row folded, it's THE SAME CAR. Your Atlas CS is physically shorter and different. If you are going to buy a car that's 201 inches long and can come with a third row, why get the 2 row version? The 2 row version does NOT get more room in the second row. It does NOT get additional cargo space. You do get a small underfloor cubby that is hard to reach for everyday use.

    I agree 100%. I was desperately waiting for the Mazda cx70 and I was really hoping for a size between cx90 and cx50 but I was so disappointed to see it's the same bulky size as the cx90. I don't know why there is hardly any good midsized 5 passengers suv left in the market. I was considering either the cadillac xt5 or ford edge because I love their size but they are both discontinuing next year. Very disappointed

The truth is this is nothing but a rebadged CX90 with a rear seat delete and some color changes inside and out. Hard pass and disappointed.And it's the same price as the CX90, another huge mistake by Mazda. A swing and a miss.

There were a few times where I had to pick up a few ppl and the extra seating I have worked out perfectly! Skip the 70 and just get a 90!

    I wish Mazda had brought us the CX60, but with a sportier attitude like the CX50. That being said, with this decontented CX90, Mazda should have pushed the back seat further rearward to increase rear seat legroom, since they no longer have to accommodate the third row. They could have given this car enough legroom so that 4 six footers could really s-t-r-e-t-c-h out, while still having a ton of cargo space. So they had two opportunities to make the 70 really desirable and botched both of them up.

    I'm sorry, but this has got to be the dumbest move on Mazda's part. The CX-70 has got to be one of the most confusing vehicles I have ever laid eyes on. How did Mazda think it made sense to take the CX-90, remove the third row, and market it as a completely different vehicle? It's like they were trying to do what Jeep did with the Grand Cherokee and the Grand Cherokee L but failed to distinguish them from the outside. xD You quite literally have CX-70 levels of cargo room in the CX-90 just by folding the third row down. Not to mention, both the CX-70 and CX-90 look almost identical aside from the slightest of changes made to the front-end and rear. Everything else from an exterior design point of view is CX-90. There isn't even that much of a price difference between the two if I recall. We should've gotten the CX-80 instead since that actually looks different from the outside towards the rear and it is also smaller than the CX-90 proportionally. I really don't see the CX-70 doing all that well if you ask me. But if it does, I'll eat my words. As it stands though, it's a really stupid vehicle marketing-wise.

    I would consider this for the sole fact that you can get a 2nd row bench in all trim levels (not just the lower trims like the CX90). Is it too much to ask for a CX90 with driver's memory settings, a digital gauge cluster + a second row bench? Seems Mazda took the idiotic Kia/Hyundai/Toyota approach. The CX70 is a viable option since I would never actually use the 3rd row seats but I do like the size and cargo space of this platform. However, the price increase of the CX70 over the CX90 for essentially less features is disappointing to say the least.

    It’s really hard to think that the same people who designed this vehicle came up with this interior and exterior color combination. It’s arguably the worst color combination I have seen in a vehicle. Mazda seems obsessed with these weird colors. In addition to the regular black interior, I wish they had the following exterior and interior combinations: Black, white, silver, dark gray with this red interior; black, white, dark gray, dark blue, dark olive green with the saddle brown interior. These are luxury car color combinations, not this crazy copper and red. 🤦‍♂️

    No way. We've had enough boring NON-colors like white, black, etc!... but the CX-70 does have those boring NON-colors as well... but I agree that it would be nice if they had a green, like Lexus's Nori Green... I'd actually say Lexus is more adventurous with color than Mazda, but Lexus dealers only stock the lame and boring whites, blacks, etc. True luxury is found in color and contrast... not boring NON-colors that make your car look like a rental car.

    @@brandononbrand You mentioned contrast. I think we’re saying the same thing, for the most part. Here’s where I think we differ: Lexus introduced a copper-like color with its latest RX. How many have you seen on the road? Back to contrast: Colors, especially on a premium or luxury car, need not be crazy. However, when a manufacturer matches a “boring” non-color, as you put it, with the right interior color, it produces an interesting effect, hence the reason I suggested the aforementioned exterior and interior color combinations. In other words, white might be boring on its own, but having red seats creates an amazing effect. Other combos that produce great visual effect: black exterior with saddle brown interior or red interior; dark olive green with saddle brown, etc…
