2026 Mazda CX-90
Car and Driver says the CX-90 gets only minor tweaks for 2026: all models now come with Amazon Alexa integration for in-car voice commands, and a new S Premium Sport trim joins the lineup with black exterior accenting. MSRP runs $40,830-$59,100. MotorTrend says the lowest-output Turbo versions use a 3.3-liter turbocharged inline-six with mild hybrid assistance making 280 hp and 332 lb-ft, the Turbo S produces 319 hp and 369 lb-ft on 87-octane (up to 340 hp on higher-octane fuel) and has hit 60 mph in 6.5 seconds in MotorTrend testing; MotorTrend says Mazda targets a customer who doesn't want to give up driving joy in a three-row people mover, satisfying gearhead shoppers, but says those wanting more practicality and price consciousness should consider options from Hyundai, Kia, or Subaru, listing top-ranked competitors as the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, Kia Telluride, and Hyundai Palisade.
