The cabin is definitely high-end and has a somewhat Mazda minimal design with flourishes of traditional Japanese aesthetics. It is a spacious cabin too, with ample room for adult passengers in all three rows.

The CX-90 is a seven-seat SUV, but if you opt for either of the $5000 options packs in the flagship Azami, it becomes a six-seater thanks to second-row captain's chairs that replace the regular second row pew. Nappa leather is available on each grade and all rows offer comfortable seats.

The CX-90 comes with a choice of two 3.3-litre turbocharged six-cylinder engines, one petrol and one diesel, and both with a 48-volt mild hybrid system, and paired with an eight-speed auto and all-wheel drive. The petrol delivers 254kW of power and 500Nm of torque, while the diesel produces 187kW and 550Nm.
