The external shots of the side impact test appear to be for the prior generation, the CX-9.

Yes, I had to use the CX-9 footage because there is no available footage of the CX-90 in this test. The data and analysis is based on the CX-90 though.

There is a little *disclaimer when they showed the cx-9, but I was thinking the same thing lol

Wow glad to see these results from Mazda!

It’s a refreshing change!

The Rivian r1t earned a good in the updated moderate overlap test

It was a nice surprise, as the R1S only got a Marginal in this test. The rating only applies to 2024 versions of the R1T, which likely means that Rivian made recent improvements in order to earn the Good. Hopefully, they are able to make these improvements on the R1S soon too.

@@crashcore_ccdo you know what improvements were made on the 2024 R1T? I couldn’t find any info. I have a 2022 and want to see if the new rating applies to my car as well.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any details from Rivian about what they changed. According to the IIHS, the Good rating only applies to 2024 models of the R1T. When comparing it to the R1S’ Marginal performance, it looks like the R1T’s seatbelts worked better (less forward motion and stayed better positioned). It’s possible they made software and/or hardware changes to the R1T’s seatbelts/ pretensioners for 2024.

just got a 90! glad to see that its safe!

Congrats! Really nice vehicle.

Trying to decide on the Mazda CX-9 or CX-90 vs a Honda Pilot for our next car. Family of four with two young children. Second row safety is a huge concern for us.

The CX-90 is safer than both the Pilot and the CX-9. For rear seat safety, the Pilot scored a Marginal and the CX-9 a Poor. The CX-90 earned a perfect score in this test.

@@crashcore_cc Thanks so much for this information! If we were to go look at a Honda Pilot, would you recommend the 2024 Pilot versus a 2022-2023 Pilot? Definitely leaning more towards the Mazda based on safety ratings, though.

@crashcore_cc

I would definitely go with the Mazda in this case. If you happen to choose the Pilot, I would only go with the 2023 or 2024 models. The Pilot was redesigned for 2023 and is a big improvement (though not perfect) over the older version.

Could you do competing vehicles like the Lexus TX for example? We're cross shopping some vehicles and the Lexus TX and CX-90 are on the list.

The Lexus TX (using Grand Highlander evaluation) has a concerning amount of intrusion in the small-overlap test for a brand new vehicle. It also hasn't been tested in the updated moderate overlap test yet, but I'm not optimistic because this test has tripped up other Toyota / Lexus models. I would personally go with the CX-90.

Nice 👍🏼

How does it compare with the SUV EVs?

There’s only one comparable EV - the Kia EV9 and it hasn’t undergone these crash tests yet.

Is this your real voice or ai?
