CONSUMER REPORTS SAYS MAZDA CX-9 AMONG ITS HIGHEST RATED 3-ROW SUVs!
The 2008 Mazda CX-9 is now among the highest rated three-row SUVs by Consumer Reports, and is now Recommended because of improved test scores and reliability!
CR states, “The new Ford Flex and the upgraded Mazda CX-9 now rank among the best three-row SUVs we’ve tested. They trail only the Highlander Hybrid, conventional Highlander
and Acura MDX in our ratings of midsized models.”
They go on to say, “The Mazda CX-9 has improved considerably since we last tested one in 2007, helped by a larger engine and improved braking. It is one of the sportiest SUVs we’ve driven and has a roomy, quiet, well-crafted interior.”
In the test they note the Highs as “agility, quietness, steering, transmission, interior flexibility, optional blind spot detection” and the Lows as “modest cargo capacity.”
The redesigned Honda Pilot has slipped from being one of their top-ranked SUVs.
More details are available in the November issue of Consumer Reports.
