2020 Mazda CX-9

Last Updated: February 27, 2020

Weak Sales: Compared to other midsize SUVs, the Mazda CX-9 was among the slowest sellers in the segment last year. Only the Ford Flex performed worse in the sales rankings. Dealerships sold 4.9 percent fewer CX-9 models this year compared to figures from 2018. Class sales leaders like the Toyota Highlander outsold the CX-9 nearly 10 to 1. 

Above Average Base Price: In the highly competitive midsize SUV segment, the CX-9’s $33,890 base price is about $2,600 above the class average for similarly equipped models. On the top end however, a fully-loaded CX-9 is priced almost $1,000 below the segment average for top trims.

Time to Buy: With such low sales, you may be able to find some great bargains at the dealership. Check out this month’s Mazda deals for financing and lease offers to bring the cost even lower. If the price for this option is too high and you’re willing to shop around, consider the Kia Sorento. Its base price is about $7,200 below the CX-9's and it was named our 2020 Best 3-Row SUV for the Money.
