2025 Updates for the Mazda CX-90
The Mazda CX-90, a premium three-row SUV, is rolling into its second year with some great updates. For 2025, this impressive vehicle gets even better, with thoughtful refinements that build on an already solid foundation. The 2025 CX-90 delivers a blend of luxury, performance, and advanced technology that helps it stand apart in today's crowded midsize SUV market.
What's New for 2025?
The 2025 Mazda CX-90 brings several key updates that you're sure to appreciate. The biggest change is a brand-new Premium Sport trim level, replacing the old Premium trim. This fresh option adds athletic flair to the CX-90 family.
You'll also love the adaptable second row, which allows you to choose between a seven- or eight-passenger setup, depending on how many kids, friends, or relatives you'll be hauling around. The tech has also improved, with a 12.3-inch infotainment display now coming standard on all but the base model, making the CX-90's cabin feel more upscale and user-friendly.
Performance Enhancements
Under the hood of the 2025 Mazda CX-90, you'll find some serious muscle. The standard 3.3-liter turbocharged inline-six engine cranks out 280 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. That's plenty of oomph for zipping around Bountiful or tackling Utah's mountain roads.
If you're looking for even more power, the Turbo S models pack a mightier version, delivering 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque when filled with premium fuel. This extra kick lets the CX-90 sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 6.3 seconds.
All CX-90 models also include a mild hybrid system as standard equipment, which boosts fuel economy by giving the engine some electrical assistance during acceleration and when you're frequently starting and stopping. The CX-90 also offers a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle option. This clever setup pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with an electric motor, combining for 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque.
Every CX-90 comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive — perfect for this area's snowy winters. And if you enjoy boating trips on Bear Lake, the CX-90 has your back — the Select and Preferred trims can pull up to 3,500 pounds, while Premium Sport and higher trims manage up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. Even the plug-in hybrid can handle 3,500 pounds. That's plenty of pulling strength for family adventures to Utah's gorgeous outdoor spots.
Fuel Efficiency and Green Technology
The 2025 Mazda CX-90 balances power with decent fuel economy, so you won't be constantly stopping for gas. The standard 280-horsepower engine gets an EPA-estimated 24 mpg in city driving and 28 mpg on highways. Even the muscular 340-horsepower version conserves fuel reasonably well at 23 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
If you're serious about saving fuel and doing your part for our beautiful local environment, the CX-90 PHEV is the way to go. It can travel up to 26 miles on electricity alone — perfect for running errands around town without burning gas. It also scores a combined EPA rating of 56 MPGe, dramatically surpassing the gas-only versions, and when the battery runs low, you still get a decent 25 mpg combined.
Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
Let's talk about safety — something we're sure is at the top of your priority list. The 2025 Mazda CX-90 comes loaded with protective technology across all trim levels. Mazda's i-ACTIVSENSE safety package includes adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and lane-keeping assist as standard. You'll also get blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and driver attention monitoring without paying extra. All these systems work together to help prevent accidents and keep your family safe on the roadways.
On higher trim levels, you'll find even more safety features, such as the 360-degree View Monitor, which gives you a bird's-eye view around the vehicle — super handy when parking at crowded shopping centers. There's also a head-up display that projects speed and navigation info onto the windshield so you can keep your eyes on those winding mountain roads.
Other great features include pedestrian detection, which continues to work even when it's dark, and automatic high beam assist, which improves nighttime visibility without blinding other drivers. These safety features give peace of mind, making daily driving less stressful and more enjoyable.
Model Lineup and Customization
Mazda changed the trim lineup, dropping the Preferred Plus and base Turbo S trims entirely. The 2025 lineup now consists of six trim levels: 3.3 Turbo Select, 3.3 Turbo Preferred, 3.3 Turbo Premium Sport, 3.3 Turbo Premium Plus, 3.3 Turbo S Premium, and 3.3 Turbo S Premium Plus. This lineup gives plenty of options to fit most tastes and budgets, with prices kicking off at $38,045 for the Turbo Select trim and topping out at $56,650 for the fully-loaded 3.3 Turbo S Premium Plus.
The New Premium Sport Trim
The new Premium Sport trim really catches the eye with black exterior accents on the grille, badging, side mirrors, lower bumpers, and roof rails. You'll also spot some sweet 21-inch wheels with a dark finish that give this SUV a more muscular appearance on the road.
Comfort and Commodities
Seating in the 2025 Mazda CX-90 is now so versatile. You can pick what works for your family in the second row, with comfy captain chairs and an optional center console in a seven-passenger setup, or an eight-passenger layout with a bench seat for maximum kid-hauling capacity.
Higher trims will make you think twice about choosing more expensive luxury brands, with their buttery nappa leather seats and real wood trims that create a truly upscale feel. And comfort abounds, with ventilated front and rear seats (a lifesaver during this region's scorching summers), a heated steering wheel for frosty mornings, and a hands-free power liftgate for when your arms are full of groceries or camping gear.
Tech-wise, all CX-90s come with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while fancier models get a 12-speaker Bose sound system that'll make your music sound amazing.
Storage space is practical too. You get 14.9 cubic feet behind the third row, 40 cubic feet behind the second row, and a massive 74.2 cubic feet with everything folded flat. That's plenty of room for ski equipment, hiking gear, or whatever else your adventures require.
