The newest SUV from 'Mazda,' the 2022 'CX-9,' will feature an improved all-wheel-drive (AWD) and a lower price tag than its 2021.5 predecessor. Previously, AWD was an upgradable option on some Mazda models, but the automaker is striving to make this feature a standard on its flagship SUV.
The 2022 CX-9 will feature i-Activ AWD on all models while reducing the price by a few thousand dollars off the 2021.5 model's MSRP. The 2022 CX-9 will still have the same features that made its predecessors so desirable, such as a 250HP engine, 320lb-ft of torque, and an ultra-efficient 26 miles-per-gallon (MPG) on highway settings.
The 2022 CX-9 will be available in a multitude of Maza colors with several customization options available, making it an excellent family car.
