Mazda's styling is really top notch across the board, imo. And SUVs are tough to style too.

3rd row delete was smart. Families with more than 3 kids are very rare nowadays. So you get the utility of being able to actually store things in the back of the vehicle. This with the hybrid system design makes this extremely compelling. I might be able to afford this on the used market in 6 years.

I don't have children. At most, with friends, I would have 5 people in my car and that's incredibly rare. But I'm a skier and will often drive 2 or 3 of us with a ton of gear on 6 hour road trips. While currently driving a CX-5, those are the times I wish I had more cargo space. That's what makes the CX-70 so tempting for me. If more than 5 people are going somewhere, we can just take a second car. Folding down a third row means there's still a third row taking up valuable space. Even having removable seats doesn't work for me with very limited space to store them. Sure, I wish the 70 offered unique styling and lower pricing than the 90, but it's understandable why they did it this way.

@Ramoono

Ай бұрын

The whole reason I got the 70, I have no use at all for a third row but I can definitely use the space, and I like the feel of the big car. I also understand the naming, it’s for a different audience, makes it easier to search and talk about

@dondonaldson1684

Ай бұрын

That is the demographic they are going for. But price it accordingly. They are using the "remove third row option" to increase margin. There is still a path forward and that is to introduce a CX60 which is a two row, and in between the size of this and the CX50. I think they came out with this as a large two row premium SUV and didn't want to have to retool all new chassis and interior components. Mazda has to reuse as much of their designs as possible to economize. After all, they aren't the size of Toyota.

As someone who wants a cx-70 I will explain the difference to me. First it has a sportier look nicer wheels and less chrome compared to the 90. Also I only have 2 kids so I don’t need a 3rd row. But we do take trips and have a dog so we need the cargo room. For me it’s perfect. Also the 70 doesn’t have the cloth stitching on the dash like the 90 does. Lastly getting a floor mat for the back is easier since it’s only one size. If there was a third row it would make the mat either too small or it would have to be rolled up. Anyway. Looking forward to getting one soon. Great review

Here in the Dallas market, CX-90s are being discounted $4000-5000. CX-70s are barely being discounted at all. Seems like more than enough reason for me to live with an unused 3rd row

I think Mazda didn't have the funds to make a drastically different model here. They probably decided it was more cost effective to use what they already designed and just delete the 3rd row. It's still a beautiful looking vehicle, but I was expecting a slightly longer and wider version of the CX-60.

Me and my wife just bought one and it’s just us. We find ourselves hauling large stuff from time to time and really wanted a big car without feeling like we’re in a soccer mom car. This does have a more sporty look to it compared to the CX-90 and we fell absolutely in love with the melting copper paint on the turbo s premium trim. Now, we have been eyeing down this car before the reveal and we were disappointed in it being the exact same size as the CX-90 because we did hope for something on the smaller end (CX-60 size would have been perfect), but it’s so fun to handle and doesn’t feel as big as it actually is when it comes to the driving dynamics. I know they left the cup holders in the back, which I also initially gave crap about, but I actually think they’re useful and why not? Better than open space when you already have such a large trunk. I also find all the storage space amazing for organizing the car underneath for where the 3rd row would have been. Overall, I’m really happy with the purchase (first Mazda owner) and I’m excited to see what they’ll do next with the line up for upcoming models.

seriously considering this, can't wait to watch the review!

The CX-70 is a sporty model (blacked out trim, painted exterior trim to body color) compared the the CX-90 which is a family model. The CX-70 has different suspension config and some nicer colors not available in the CX-90. My kids are in college so I don't need a 3rd row so I'm looking at the top CX-70 model.

Id like one but with the straight 6 without a turbo in a lower trim model, i'm ok with 230-250hp in this vehicle, im not racing anyone and im not flooring it to the red light plainly in sight 100 yards from me like half the morons on the road.

Actually this was made for me. I asked for a 2 row SUV with maximum cargo space for my reselling business. I will never need the 3rd row. The sportiness and luxury and driving experience complete the package.

My family is very tall. Would have loved this if they kept the cx90 size but rearranged everything to give more legroom in the 1st and 2nd rows and move the door pillar back as well.

I like the fact that it only has two rows, most people don't need three, but yet still has plenty of room in the back.

I almost bought a Mazda. I like the fact it has a regular transmission, but beyond that I know nothing about them. What is that nob on the console for? You know the kids will be playing with it. I love your honest videos; keep making them.

"Why would anyone buy a two row large SUV?" - AMD, I can answer that question because that's exactly what I'm going to do. My wife and I are close to 60 years old and have no kids. We do, however, have two medium sized (60 lbs) dogs. The dogs go with us everywhere so we need a vehicle that can carry two dogs crates side by side in the cargo area and still have room for suitcases, a cooler, extra dog crates for the hotel, event site, camp site,, etc. in the 2nd row (which we always fold down flat). Right now I have a minivan, but am looking for a vehicle with a nicer build, more luxury, and more tech. The next vehicle I get will be a new GX 550 (when dealers have available stock) - specifically the 2 row Overtrail trim. So, while I may not represent a large percentage of the population, just know that there are still quite a few people like me that consider a 3rd row to be a negative, even if they can be folded down. Because when folded down, the third row still occupies cargo space that I'd rather have. Oh, and as for resale value, when you keep vehicles for 10 years and 150,000+ miles like I do the difference in resale value between a 3 row and 2 row SUV is negligible.

I don’t quite understand why you don’t understand why someone would want a CX 90 with only two rows. This is exactly what we’d want! A large SUV with large cargo space instead of a third row. We’re empty nesters who like road trips. More cargo space is what we need.

Me too. the two row SUVs are just too small if you want to stuff some fairly large boxes or items in the back. I have NO need for useless, tiny, uncomfortable third row that just takes up valuable storage space. You fold it down, fine, still takes up a foot or more of vertical space. I think A LOT of us want something like this. My only issue is mediocre MPG, so hoping for a V6 (smaller than usual) hybrid or a large I-4 hybrid. That said, I love my 2003 V-6 Accord, and don't want anything to do with 4cyl turbo money pits. That said, these Mazda's like so many SUV/CUVs today, to dang swoopy in back, which takes away from internal storage dimensions. Something old school Jeep Cherokee (but not a Cherokee...junk) boxy would maximize the site of items you can jam in there. I like the look of the R1S, but not really in to spendin $80k. I could buy a ginormous and expensive Yukon or Escalade or something, but the cost to own is...enough to stop ones heart. maybe 10mpg and mediocre reliability

Great review as always . Personally I don’t see an issue with CX-70 having only two rows , grand Cherokee, Subaru Outback and 4Runner are similar size vehicles and come in two rows of seats. The only vehicles that have a usable 3rd row are minivans or very large SUV’s , I just don’t see the point of a 3rd row where only small children can sit. I would pick CX 70 over CX 90.

There is one very simple reason why Mazda saw fit to create a new model designation for the CX-90 without a third row: in the US auto market, there are almost no SUVs offered with 2 or 3 rows of seating. An automaker is more inclined to offer two different models than one model with both options.

But its's not sportier. It's not any lighter, nimbler or "sportier." No adjustments to the powertrain or suspension to reflect that. It has black accents, chrome wheels, and different vents and that does not make anything sportier. It appears darker, but you can pay an auto shop a few hundred dollars to black out your accents and come out paying less for more in the CX-90 given the better discounts and offers at this point.

EV mode is designed to drive in town which you don't really the engine to kick in, there are 2-3 seconds delay for the engine to kick in if you push really hard. If you want engine to assist more frequently for passing, you should drive in normal mode and it's very seamless for engine to kick in and shutdown, you may not even notice it unless you watch the tach.

They use that engine cover to insulate the engine not to lose heat while it's off.

So I have a Passport (2021), and it versus the Pilot is a very similar comparison with the Mazda.; The Passport at that time was a couple of grand more. So, your question is why sacrifice the third row? Well for one I'm single, and I wanted the J35 engine. I don't need video monitors in the backseat, nor do I want them. I don't need a com device to talk to ppl in the back rows. I just wanted a reliable, spacious Crossover that wasn't designed to haul around kids. It's really that simple, and worth every extra peeny imo. Now, only if it was two door.

The Passport is a "chopped" Pilot, ie several inches shorter, no? That's not the case here.

The advantage in the Passport is the shorter length and true 5-passenger making it more focused. In the Mazda case, it has the same CX-90 w/o the 3rd row.

I would Ahmad to review the latest CX50 Hybrid with the Toyota engine, transmission, EV motors / hybrid system. It’s a Mazda fit and finish with Toyota guts and proven hybrid.

As ever, calling it as it is. Thanks

I think you're missing the point of the car and all the different use cases/lifestyles where more cargo space is desirable vs a third row. I have been waiting for the CX-70 since I heard it was on it's way and I knew the only change would be the lack of third row. It's a thousand bucks cheaper per model designation and I don't need to spend a grand on rear seats I'll never use. Essentially Mazda has done what Audi did with the Q7 and Q8 without the downside of losing interior space to make it look sexier. If the Audi Q7 was available for less with a third row delete, it' be my choice over the Q8 too.

Add-on: Mazda recommended Premium Fuel, Base line trim don't have wireless Android Auto/Car Play on 60k CAD car. Last thing, it hold 70L fuel so don't surprise when you go gas station or your EV range drop fast. The most questioning thing people asking is: " why they have 4 cup holder in the back of row seat on cx-70?

We request Mazda CX-50 and Thank you for your hard work

I do think people might want a large, classy SUV that only has two rows of seats. However, what you said about the pricing comparison makes sense.

I find the fact that the front end is slightly more appealing and sportier than the CX 90, and the availability of a bench seat in second row would make me select the CX 70 over the CX 90

I had to bail out on this review because of the constant cx90 reference. We all know it's the same and we all scratch our heads. However I think this vehicle is a great opportunity to discuss mazdas greatest challenge. CAFE standards. It's why we don't get the cx 60 like other countries, and why it's very likely that the next cx5 will only have the PHEV engine on offer. Just a thought. I'm a big fan of your channel. Thanks for your reviews and knowledge.

But that's a government regulation issue. I'm assuming you would like that to change, but how can a KZreadr change anything like that?

@Play4Vida a utuber cant change anything. But it does answer the question as to why mazda made the 70 instead of giving us the cx60 we all want. There's a big demand for mid size 2 row suv with big power. By re badging the 90 it sets up performance platforms for the future.

I know it's just psychological, but I would choose the CX-70 over the 90 just because a third row seat, even folded, gives me the vibe that I'm driving a school bus rather than a near-luxury car.

Lol, same vehicle , except 2 rows vs 3 rows. I think the cx 60 would have been better

Great video, newer tech and needs to be vented out. Price is at Lexus level also.

thank you very much.

Thank you for the video! I think they should have brought the CX-60 instead of the CX-70. Alternatively, a modern version of a minivan or pickup truck would have also been a better choice. As you mentioned, the CX-70 is very similar to the CX-90, which raises questions about the distinctiveness between the two models.

Can you please do a thorough review of 2025 Camry LE or XSE trims ?

Great review, but too expensive. Love the background lighting.

Mazda needs to understand the premium and luxury space includes soft riding suspension and steering, as well as thicker glass for sound deadening even on base trims. They have some ways to go and should not be commanding the price they ask for this or the "CX90".

The suspension definitely is a weak point. I confirmed the rather unrefined ride with a test drive. If Mazda claims they are now a luxury car maker, then make that ride more refined and smoother. I told the dealer this after I took a 30 minute test ride of the CX-60 here in Finland. I was quite disappointed. The unrefined suspension makes me question purchasing the vehicle.

The Mazda was designed from the ground up to be a premium vehicle will Lexus are basic Toyotas with add ons like lament front glass and some extra bells and whistles but it’s still basically a regular Toyota.

Is love to see a review on the Subaru Outback (Turbo or regular) to see what you think of it.

Apart from the base model cx90 the seating is 2 in the front 2 in the middle and 2 in the back. If you want to have 5 people in the car you HAVE to use the 3rd row. The cx-70 is the only way to go

Have had many Mazda vehicles and loved them all. This seems fantastic and I love that it was made in Japan (as were all of mine), but WHEW, you better hope anything going wrong, esp with the powertrain is under full warranty. From loosening the first bolt, to wiping down the wrenches was 25 mins to do a timing belt in my 323. Did my clutch laying on a driveway by myself, and aside from a lot of effort at least the procedure was simple and straight forward. Days like these are looooong gone. Heck, even the back spark plugs on this engine look like a nightmare from here, being so far under the firewall.

When you look at the cx80 in Europe, this cx70 makes even less sense, 4" shorter and a cleaner looking rear end. Just bring that here please. Even though I'm disappointed I will still probably buy one because it's the best option for me.

Why would the cx-70 be the better option for you than the cx-90?? Sorry, I'm confused. IMHO, I would take the option of having a 3rd row seat in case it's ever needed over..not. 🤔

I prefer the sport design with black of the CX70 over the flagship design with chrome and bumper of the CX90. Still would have preferred the CX60 or a super CX-50 the same way a grand highlander is a super rav4. This much money, I want it to look how I want as well. I appreciate the content

I think the reason for the copy and paste job is crash and environmental certifications - they can tell the EPA and NHTSA that “look, they’re exactly the same”

So how long will those clutches last? How much to change? Too much complexity. Love my 2015 cx5- a simple, tough gem.

I'll wait until I buy one. Still enjoying my Mazda 3

Rear bench seat is a must have if you have a dog..... Captains chairs and/or 3rd rows are often completely useless.

@The Car Care Nut Reviews, please review Honda HR-V2024 or 2025 specially its reliability and maintenance cost. This one is a sensible vehicle. Thank you!🎉😊

I drive a 2024 CX-5. Got to be honest, if I needed lots of cargo capacity - I'd take a 70 over a 90. Truth is, I don't even want the option of being able to tote extra passengers. I do question the naming of this vehicle though. Should just sell the 90 as a two or three row option.

I was looking forward to the 70 but when I added all the options I wanted it was more expensive than a comparably equipped RX350. The second 70 that I drove had a sagging headliner and an unbalanced from wheel. Decided the cheaper RX Hybrid was the way to go!

This is a really nice looking car! I like that it’s a 2-row but wish the length would have shorten some. I had a 3-row Tahoe for a short time and found the third row useless and only used once. The price for this is kinda steep also.
