Mazda has taken the CX-9 into the 2017MY, which carries MSRP of US$ 31,520. The entry-level Sport continues to be offered with the same amenities, such as the 18-inch wheels, LED lighting units, fabric seating surfaces, electronic parking brake, Mazda Connect infotainment with Commander control and a 7-inch color display, reversing camera and trailer assist.

The mid-range CX-9 Touring now benefits from standard Smart City Brake Support, a feature that was previously available as an option on this grade, and at no extra cost on the Grand Touring and Signature models. Prices for this trim level start from US$ 35,970, and it also comes with leather seating surfaces, 8-inch touchscreen, auto-dimming rearview mirror, Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, keyless entry, power front seats, power liftgate, and others.


Priced from US$ 40,470, the CX-9 Grand Touring builds upon the Sport and Touring, adding 20-inch wheels, roof rails, radar-guided cruise control with smart brake support, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, high-beam control, adaptive front lighting, head-up display, and memory settings on the driver's seat.

For the 2017 Mazda CX-9 Signature, the automaker is asking at least US$ 44,315. This is the only model offered with all-wheel drive as standard, a system that uses 27 sensors and measures the conditions more than 200 times per second to determine how much power is allocated to each wheel. Additionally, the range-topping SUV also comes with LED signature grille lighting, Auburn-colored Nappa leather, LED accent lighting around the gear shifter, and rosewood supplied by Japanese guitar-maker Fujigen.


Power to the entire range comes from the 2.5-liter turbo'd petrol engine that produces 250 HP and 420 Nm of torque on 93-octane gasoline, and or 227 HP and 310 lb-ft on 87-octane.
