The 2009 Mazda CX-9 full-size crossover utility vehicle is perhaps the sportiest, most fun-to-drive crossover in its class, with sharp handling, abundant power, and available all-wheel drive.

The CX-9 is available in three trim levels with either standard front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive for optimum handling in a variety of road and weather conditions. The 3.7-liter, 273-horsepower V-6 engine with Variable Valve Timing produces a wealth of torque for excellent off-the-line acceleration and good towing power. The standard six-speed automatic transmission with sport shift offers manumatic shifting ability for quick gear changes. With the available Towing Package, the CX-9 can tow up to 3.500 pounds.

As one of the only midsize crossover vehicles with 7-passenger seating capacity, the CX-9 offers excellent interior space. Three rows of seats and 100.7 cubic feet of maximum cargo room can accommodate the largest of loads.  An available DVD navigation system with voice command and touch screen provides real-time directions, mapping, and control of audio and climate functions. Available Bluetooth® allows hands-free operation of your cell phone. Three-zone climate control offers comfort for all three rows of passengers, while an optional power-sliding glass moonroof with sunshade and wind deflector offers open-air enjoyment and a great view outside cabin. The available Rear Seat Entertainment System includes a 9-inch DVD screen with surround sound, while the optional Bose® Centerpoint® stereo system offers 11 speakers and a 6-CD changer with MP3 capability for supreme sound quality.  A trip computer is now standard on all models and the Grand Touring trim receives an auto-dimming rearview mirror with Homelink buttons.

Standard four-wheel ventilated disc brakes with an anti-lock braking system and Electronic Brake-Force Distribution offer excellent stopping power and help to prevent wheel lockup during hard braking. Dynamic Stability Control and Traction Control offer enhanced stability during evasive maneuvers and minimize wheelspin on slick roads. Roll Stability Control helps to keep the vehicle secure if an imminent rollover is detected. Standard advanced dual front airbags with front side-impact airbags and side curtain airbags with rollover protection for all three rows offers excellent passenger protection in a collision. The new Blind Spot Monitoring System uses sensors in the rear bumper to detect objects on the side and behind the vehicle.

The 2009 Mazda CX-9 is one of the most powerful, capable, and utilitarian midsize crossovers available.
