9 Surprising Features on the Mazda CX-9
The 7-passenger Mazda CX-9 combines sophistication and comfort for the driver and passengers alike. Aimed to be be just much a driver’s car as it is a practical family-hauler for seven, here are nine features that may surprise you about the CX-9 crossover SUV.
Active Driving Display
A windshield-projected Active Driving Display makes the driver feel like he or she is in the cockpit of a fighter jet. Navigation, Advanced Blind Spot Monitoring, Mazda Radar Cruise Control and much more are presented on the lower windshield, allowing the driver to enjoy your drive by keeping your head up and eyes on the road.
Bose 12 Speaker System
Because you can never have too many speakers. The Mazda’s R&D team and BOSE sound engineers worked together to create an exceptionally sounding system that will enhance your driving experience.
Second-Row Retractable Sunshades
You’re not going to need suction cup window shades any more. Second-row passengers will enjoy their ride with built in retractable shades that block out heat, sun glare and flashes from the paparazzi.
Two USB Ports for Backseat Passengers
Not guaranteed to stop the second row passengers from fighting over the armrest, but the two USB ports will keep their devices charged. The USB ports are conveniently placed in the armrest of the second row and give a place for devices to be stowed while charging.
Standard LED Lighting
Inside and out, LED lighting comes standard on the all-new CX-9. The LED headlights and taillights are brighter to help with visibility. The interior LED lights slowly illuminate as you enter the cabin and keep the cabin lightly-lit throughout your journey.

All-New Signature Trim Level
Mazda’s new Signature trim level debuted on the 2016 CX-9 with added luxurious touches and features. The rose wood is sourced from a Japanese guitar maker. The aluminum trim is inspired by the blade of a knife used to fillet fish. The Nappa leather is among the softest and most durable leathers. And, yes, they’re all real materials.
Easy-access to the third row
Fully-sliding second row seats give easy access to the third row even with a car seat installed.
Storage
With seven passengers comes sevens times the cargo. Two storage bins underneath the cargo floor provide extra storage. When the second and third-row seats are folded down, you’ll have more than 70 cubic feet of storage.
