Meynmotorgroup. How is the realibility 9n cx90 I want to upgrade to cx90 how is the realibility any problems.

[@RaghavMRR]

Good one bro.. Im on my second CX5 2.5 S … fantastic vehicles.. feels premium , drives great and very reliable.. I hope these CX90’s are as good if not better .. became a fan of mazda’s.. will buy this next model year when its time to upgrade..

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Thank you my friend! Yea CX-5 is really great and completely ironed out no real issues with it. These base model CX-90s drive pretty good but not completely perfect I think Mazda will improve it over the years. I'm curious to try a CX-70 to see if that feels more buttoned up being that it is a 2025.

[@rorythomson3439]

Excellent review. I like that you show love for the base models, where most consumers should be looking for daily drivers.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@rorythomson3439 thank you my friend! In this instance, base would be best for the CX-90

[@danydufort4562]

Great down to earth common sense review, all the information one needs in a neatly delivered package. Thanks for another great edition ! My hearth was leaning towards this vehicle, unfortunately and as you clearly state the fun factor is not in the offering. I was hoping I could pick your brain on what new or used Japanese 2 or 3 row SUV I should consider that would be more fun in more spirited driving. Cheers !

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Thank you so much my friend for your kind words. Honestly there aren't many "fun" SUVs but you could look into an Acura MDX A-Spec or Type S really that's the more beefed up "fun" MDX but costs $75k.

I live in Florida and got the CX-90 Select. I don’t need heated seats in Florida. I also prefer not to have a sun roof because I keep the shade closed anyway to keep out the heat.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Good choice

[@MrDilbert111]

@@MeynMotorGroup thanks. I was cross shopping the CRV EX-L which actually costs around the same. I paid $750 under MSRP and got 1.9% promotional APR. I got it white and think it much more upscale compared to the CRV. I was concerned about the size without parking sensors or a 360 camera but it’s really been fine.

[@PechuPeluche]

Yes, I live in FL as well. I always had sunroof before in my cars when i Lived abroad and loved it. I got the 2023 CX-5 with sunroof thinking it would be nice to use it. One year with the car already and opened the shade maybe three times so far. Inclement roasting sun over here, dont need a sunroof at all!

[@user-wp1ff1rs4r]

Mr .Dilber1111 I am thinking getting cx90 select how is the realibility in the car is it problem free. Can you drive it daily without any problem il, I have cx5 I want to upgrade to cx90

[@MrDilbert111]

@@user-wp1ff1rs4r I only have1,500 miles but no problems so far. Consumer reports gives it a good reliability rating. It also has a 6 cylinder turbo which I think is much better than a 4 cylinder turbo because the engine doesn’t have to strain as much. Scotty Kilmer pointed that out when he reviewed his customer’s CX-90

[@Excalabur50]

Mate some of your nit picks might be fixable with software updates, I suspect the noise you're hearing might have something to do with the transfer case due to the AWD, just a wild guess though.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Yes that could be possible the noise simply could be a mechanical natural sound the vehicle makes in which case is fine. Overall, I'm really loving this CX-90 with the smaller wheels can absolutely recommend.

[@dano7145]

A terrific review in every respect. As a 70-year-old whose DD/family cars have been full-size vans or minivans since 1983, I'm now considering a mid-size SUV or crossover, preferably in a 2-row variant such as the CX-70. I like your take on the inherent goodness of the base trim, including slightly smaller wheels (providing tires with ample sidewalls!) and the standard I-6 turbo. But my wife insists on a heated steering wheel and ventilated seats, so I'll likely have to climb to the applicable trim level. Also, the larger interior of the Pilot intrigues me, but reviews I've read of Honda products in general often cite higher-than-average road noise. I don't require tomb-like conditions, but a quieter ride could break a tie. Cheers!

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@dano7145 Definitely test drive a few Pilots my friend, the Trailsport with Continental AT tires was pretty quiet I’m sure the regular models will be fine as well

[@dano7145]

Will do. Thanks!

[@roderickmorales]

Thank you for reviewing the base model, I am currently looking to buy this vehicle, I’ve never own a Mazda car before after being a Toyota fan for too long, I really want this to be my next one, I’m looking to get either the Preferred or Preferred plus model and stay under 45 grand. It’s a lot of car for the money, I am just not so sure about the reliability of it compared to a Toyota one.

[@JuanGonzalez-fn4ik]

The mirrors are tiny how is the visibility using them?

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@JuanGonzalez-fn4ik just fine rear window is the only thing constricting the view and even that is manageable

[@dismasthomas1202]

Can you turn off the stop and go engine at stops ?

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@dismasthomas1202 yes

[@asadb1990]

How does the cx90 compare to the lexus rx? In terms of luxury and features. The rwd really makes them attractive.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@asadb1990 no real point in getting excited about the rwd architecture it doesn’t make as big of a difference as you might think. They’re both about equally refined RX feels more ironed out tho but for the price and deals the Mazda can be had for, a 19” CX-90 model is a no brainer

[@BobScott-k3s]

Very real world video thank you.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Glad you liked it!

[@BanB-bz6wt]

Thanks for that review!!.. But what do you think of it compared to the likes of Nissan Pathfinder and Honda Pilot??

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Better than Pathfinder but Pilot is really the best only problem with Pilot is it's boring but I guess most shoppers won't care about that

[@BanB-bz6wt]

@@MeynMotorGroup thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it

@@BanB-bz6wt no problem my friend

[@steadysmv]

It’s crazy that 19” wheels are the smaller wheels. I remember when 18” wheels were the upgrade. That wasn’t long ago.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

@@steadysmv it’s all relative to the size of the vehicle

Thank you brother for your support I hope you've been having a blessed week so far!

[@zhila5958]

I may get crucified for my opinion and view regarding this car since Mazda is targeting the premium market, But i would've loved if this car had even more of a competitive pricing with RWD option and the 2.5L Turbo variant for those who want a less complicated vehicle but want to experience luxury at a more affordable price point. What would your take be on this?

[@JeremyGeduldt]

The Mazda BT-20 should be a halftonner based on 2 the should name it Mazda Rustler BT-20

From the United States South Africa should receive CX-70 & CX-50 the CX-5 should get discontinued & CX-3 in 2025 than 2026 CX-80 than 2027 CX-40 China should receive CX-40 in 2025 to nreplace CX-4 .

[@magnoliap5824]

I can’t get over that wheel base distance! Too long for me. I do like 19” wheels and the price.

[@MeynMotorGroup]

Price is def great!
