The New 2022 Mazda CX-9 Has Arrived in Thomaston

Attention, Connecticut families: the 2022 CX-9 has arrived in Thomaston, and it’s bringing the heat when it comes to three-row luxury!

For decades, families have had to compromise on their vehicles, giving up style, performance, and luxury in order to get the space they need. But Mazda is making the boring ol’ family wagon a thing of the past with vehicles like the CX-9, a 3-row crossover designed to fit growing families (and all their stuff) while still delivering on speed, good looks, and SUV-inspired athleticism.

In this article, we’re getting up close and personal with the 2022 Mazda CX-9 and all of the exciting features this luxury crossover is bringing to Thomaston families.

“The CX-9’s turbocharged four-cylinder engine provides adequate acceleration, but its chassis is what delivers its trademark driving verve. The CX-9’s crisp steering and sporty cornering attitude remind us more of a sports sedan than an SUV, which earns it an Editors’ Choice award.” – Car and Driver

Sporty, Spacious, and Stylish: Meet the Mazda CX-9

The CX-9 fits squarely in the SUV category, offering drivers the improved sightlines, rugged capabilities, and plentiful space they’re looking for from a sport utility vehicle. The turbocharged 4-cylinder engine provides both guts and efficiency, delivering class-competitive acceleration and fuel economy that outshines its competitors in the space. New for 2022, the CX-9 is now offered with standard all-wheel-drive to meet the needs of busy east coast drivers.

“Apart from its solid acceleration performance, the CX-9 is, according to the EPA, more fuel-efficient than many of its rivals. The front-wheel drive model earned EPA estimates of 22 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway; all-wheel drive drops both of those figures by 2 MPG. In our real-world highway fuel-economy test, the all-wheel-drive CX-9 matched its 26-MPG rating.” – Car and Driver

Mazda pulled out all the stops when designing the 2022 CX-9. All models come with a user-friendly infotainment system and a 10.3” touchscreen display that simplifies your day-to-day with everything from navigation support to speedy Bluetooth compatibility for seamless phone and audio streaming.

Drivers will be impressed with the CX-9’s functional cabin. Both the second and third rows fold completely flat, opening up a cavern of space that’s good for everything from hauling camping gear for a weekend away to picking up IKEA furniture. Everyone onboard will love the spread of organizational space, cup holders, USB charging ports, and the wireless charging pad upfront.  Every inch of the interior space is luxurious, from the soft-touch materials to the ambient lighting to the remarkable sound-proofing.

Safety? Don’t worry, Mazda thought of that, too. The 2022 CX-9 comes with a wide range of driver-assist safety technologies and received a 5-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

“The CX-9’s cabin wows with upscale materials and detailed styling, but compared with other SUVs in the segment, it’s short on passenger and cargo space. Open the door and the CX-9’s interior welcomes passengers with an upscale cabin that wouldn’t look out of place in an Audi. Mazda has tastefully arranged soft-touch plastic with handsome graining, brushed aluminum, and, in our Signature-trim test car, genuine rosewood.” – Car and Driver
