I bought the CX-90 Turbo-S Premium 2 weeks ago and my mirrors do adjust when you use the memory buttons, it’s just not an option for all models. I think the touchscreen is a small dislike, but in my case, I don’t dislike it at all. I enabled the touchscreen for Apple CarPlay and it’s a hassle to use. The ease and ergonomics of the knob is preferable to me and more safe. I 💯 agree with the lack of storage though! That console leaves much to be desired and I can’t fit as much as I did with my 2017 CX-5. Barely anything at all! I noticed that you don’t have I-Stop on your CX-90. On my model, that is one thing I hate, and have to disable every time I turn the car on. It’s just annoying having the car turn off when you stop then have a lag when it starts again. I have a couple other dislikes, but definitely nothing big enough to make me regret my purchase!

[@premiumoctane93]

So what I found out is it’s not an option for any PHEV models even the premium plus , another blunder for mazda imo. Why have a memory seat but not memory mirrors?

[@yummytummy88]

You can turn OFF the I stop feature. This feature only meant to save a little fuel while your car is idling on the traffic light.

Everyone dislikes the lack of touchscreen but it's smart cause it's less distracting and longevity was thought of in cold climate like us in Canada. I like the dial.

[@nickcef510]

Less distracting? How do you figure? Turn the wheel and follow the cursor along the screen with your eyes until you reach the icon that you want to click on (using Google maps or Waze) instead of just one look, one tap. Besides, touch is included for Android Auto/Carplay on higher trims, though. That's just nickel and diming on Mazda's part. Not including it in general, that's just a really dumb business decision in 2033. In this crazy market , I had put deposits on several vehicles, and this was the first to arrive. Given the choice, I wouldn't have purchased it based on this alone. Also, given the size of this vehicle, cargo capacity is atrocious, as is leg and shoulder room compared to anything else in it's size class. As soon as I can get my hands on the Grand Highlander, this one is being traded. Don't get me wrong, there are many things that I like about it, but I can't get past having my eyes on the screen following that stupid cursor around, and the lack of space.

@@nickcef510 yeah I bought the signature mhev. Mhev seems like a meme, but whatever. I disagree with almost all of his nitpicks here. I love it with one exception. The vehicle whines way too much about safety. It'll bark at me to be in 10 and 2. It'll beep at me pulling up to any drive through cause it doesn't like how close I am. I tried turning these things off but doesn't seem like you can for most things. However, I'm sure it won't be long before someone cracks the infotainment and I'll hack it just like I did my last Mazda.

[@nickcef510]

@@arkeo5467 Yeah, I agree with you on the nitpicks. The safety nannies are not as intrusive on mine. 10 and 2? Really? That would drive me nuts, too. Lots of people have suggested that Mazda uses the same central screen on all the trims but disables the touchscreen on lower trims. I do hope that that's the case and someone figures out how to hack that. I drive rentals on a semi regular basis, and have always quickly adapted to the car's infotainment system, as most are quite intuitive and all feature touchscreens. This one isn't well thought out.

Never never never use a touch screen. FINGERPRINTS! My CX-90 recognizes my faces and adjusts steering wheel, mirrors and seat. Storage is amole with the rear console drawer.

[@David_Journey]

The CX-90 PHEV even at highest trim lacks what I standard on Turbo S: * Memory for mirrors * full length illumination for tail light * body colored fender garnish instead of black. They decidedly left out equipment out from the table to keep Turbo S the top engine / trim.

@geraldojohnson7314 only thing not included here is the touchscreen with top trim all the other items are all trims on PHEV.

Based on the negative comments about the Mazda CX-90 in this post, I wonder how the author was able to choose/purchase the CX-90? Among the negative points listed in this publication, one for me is the lack of storage around the console. If I ever buy the Mazda CX-90, it will be the base model in Canada, the GS or maybe wait for the CX-70 as I don't really need the third row. 🤔

[@anthonylamar6954]

Do you regret your decision to trade in the Model Y for the CX-90? These things seem pretty minor for me. I think I would adapt to them over time fairly easily. How does your wireless charger work? I’ve heard some people complain about them. And how often are you having to fill up on gas?

[@premiumoctane93]

I honestly do miss the Model Y. I am missing the storage space and Power on the Y. These 5 things on the CX90 are seriously annoying especially when none of those were issues on the Model Y. I am still on the original tank of gas with over 600 miles on the clock so far. (sitting at half a tank right now) The wireless charger is not very good it will work but I dont use it.

Dont think I've ever seen someone complain about HAVING a spare tire. Usually it's a dislike when cars don't have a spare tire. Just shows that this car is pretty damn good, we're nitpicking petty things. 😎

[@premiumoctane93]

Out of my 5 current cars the only one that has a spare tire is my Bronco and it is on the outside and doesnt take up storage space. I like the creature comforts for my daily driver so once you have some of these things and dont it is a bigger deal than it seems 🤷‍♂

Thanks for the video...I still like my CX9 GT....it has touchscreen (But I'm used to use the wheel) it has more storage space in the centre console, and the most important it has a better shifter....I also think the front face (specially the grill and the head lights) looks much better on CX9.... oh and I forgot.... not that stupid start/stop engine feature on CX9 😂

[@noniespam]

I have a 2021 Calligraphy right now, your lack of storage space is due to the online 6 and the transmission. I believe an ok trade off to get that dominate rear wheel drive. My counsel is very deep and seems to fill up with crap and I can never find anything anyway and the space under my council collects it also, mostly filled up with my wife’s stuff. I’m considering the cx90 this spring but want to see what the deal is going to be on the cx70 coming out late this year. I also have those plastic ledges under the door, their purpose is to keep that road dirt off of the body where your legs / pants would rub while getting in or out. Mine are at a little bit more of an angle but still collect dirt, which is kind of their purpose and it does work well so I have gotten into the habit of rinsing them off. The winter car wash I use seems to do a good job of that, must have some spray nozzles stregically placed for that reason.

[@tpolakis]

Nice video. Three of your dislikes are non-issues for me, but the lack of a touch screen is nearly a deal-breaker, and limiting cargo space as Mazda has done is giving me pause.

[@GCHG2014]

Do you ever bash your knee on the air vent by the door? I did the first and only time I got in one. Also the center console on my CX-9 is a inch to wide for cruise control when you take your foot off the accelerator pedal and rest it off to the side.( Common complaint) The center console on this cx-90 seems wider but never got to drive it and see if the same width issue is there.

[@premiumoctane93]

Yes I have done it once and it hurt like *****!!

[@martinportelance5843]

Didn't you at least see the car before buying it? I mean, most, if not all your points were based on design & functionality, which you could experience prior to purchase.

[@nickcef510]

I bought the PHEV GT (highest trim level available in Canada for the PHEV).A big disappointment for me is that you can't tell the vehicle to save the full electric range for later and drive it in regular hybrid mode. You can select EV mode to have it drive on battery alone, but if you select the Normal mode, it still defaults to full electric 90 plus percent of the time, including driving at highway speeds when you're depleting the battery quickly because the battery electric mode is less efficient at high speeds. Basically after charging the battery, He will always deplete the battery during the first part of your drive. Most plug-in hybrids give you the option to save that battery power until later.

[@premiumoctane93]

I think you can trick it into gas only if you hit the battery save button next to the shifter, you will have to go into settings to set this to 100% then it will save the battery for later use. Still a big inconvenience.

[@nickcef510]

@@premiumoctane93 Yes, I've done that, however, recharging the battery / keeping the battery charged using the engine likely increases fuel consumption.... Remember, the hybrid system is designed to regenerate a certain amount of power to keep it operating as a hybrid. If you ask the system to regenerate more power to keep the battery pack fully charged in addition to operating as a hybrid vehicle, it likely needs to work harder.

Back to the mirrors - you may want to try setting it again. According to the manual, the outside mirror angle is saved. Also, "If the angle of the outer mirror is adjusted close to the limits of its range of motion, the angle of the outer mirrors may not be programmed correctly."

[@r.t.moo.]

@@premiumoctane93 Nope. The Standard Aviator starts at $53,340. The Reserve model at $59,005 and the Grand Touring starts at $70,190, all significantly higher than their CX-90 model counterpart. Also, per CarEdge a Lincoln Aviator will depreciate 45% over 5 years.

@@r.t.moo. the $59,000 aviator would be a better choice than the top CX90 for cargo, power and infotainment that’s just for my situation. It is all subjective so you can argue it for hours. If I was going to go top of the line cx90 I rather go aviator.

Seeing a lot of legit negatives about this model. I've crossed it off my list of possibilities. I have a 2019 CX-5 Signature which I love but won't be upgrading to this.

[@arkeo5467]

Well, they're all wrong. I have a signature cx-90. I've only ever driven Mazdas. The cx-90 signature embarrasses everything else.

Waaa I have to adjust my own mirrors. Waaa, my touch screen is weird. Waaa I have to move my shifter over. Waaa I don’t have enough storage for all my tampons. Waaaa I don’t know how to change a tire so I don’t need a spare. Waaaa I have to clean my door pockets….waaaaa.

[@premiumoctane93]

I guess you didn’t care to visit the rest of my channel, changing a tire is not an issue but most cars these days don’t include a spare to free up more storage. I am sorry if you own a CX90. Ifyou were thinking about buying one seriously look at other vehicles before you buy.

[@danielflanagan1340]

@@premiumoctane93I’ve been researching them and I’m not buying one for like 5 reasons, but none of yours matter to me. Your gripes are really not relatable to me though. I’m looking for something to replace my Wrangler that can do easy camping trails and tow a small camper. I’m going to wait to see the CX-70. Hopefully it’s got an off road trim like the CX-50. Or at least bigger tires and smaller rims. Maybe a skid plate.

A few of these things could have been uncovered before you signed up during the test drive. I’m nowhere near that anal and I took my ipad with me to test drives to make sure it would either fit the center console or glovebox. Less emotional and more analytical would make for a better experience

@@geraldthompson4633 The adaptive crusise cant handle passing vehicles in corners, it freaks out and slams on the brakes ( i ended up disabling it) You cant leave the car running and fuel up in the PHEV model at least, You have to shut the car off then push the fuel door button and wait for it to say "ready for refueling" The windshield wipers cannot be raised all the way up to wash the windshield they hit the hood, a bigger pain for cold climates because i know people like to raise wipers when it is going to be icy or raise them to click snow and ice off.

1/ The design does not have a touch screen because we don’t want drivers to have accidents when touching the touch screen with their hands👍. 2/ The gearbox is just a habit. If you don’t accept it, don’t change the car! 3/ storage Do you want to put a long gun? ! You might as well install a cabinet in the car! 4/ Three Row Storage Do you want it to be flat enough to play poker? ! 🤣5/ Doors, your CX-90 is a gasoline-electric system car, mine is an I6, and there is no design like yours under the door, so my CX-90 does not have this problem!
