Latest Updates on Mazda CX-90

The Mazda CX-90 is Mazda's flagship, full-size, 7-seater SUV sold in the UAE. This three-row crossover comes with a luxurious and driver-focused interior with all the necessary technical specifications. It stands as the perfect family car with a big boot space, uses premium materials, and a legroom and headroom big enough to sit comfortably for long journeys and quick city stops.

What's New on Mazda CX-90?

Introduction

  • When Mazda decided to build the CX-90, they made a bold choice: a rear-wheel-drive-biased platform, a turbocharged straight-six engine, and a premium interior that does not feel like it was priced to compete with Korean crossovers. Rather, the aim was something higher. And in the UAE, where premium three-row SUVs are among the most popular choices and the competition is strong, the CX-90 arrives as the only Japanese option in the segment with a real six-cylinder persona and the promise of luxury, offering a compelling choice among its fiercest rivals. If you experience it, the impression you get of the CX-90 is a seven-seat SUV that drives like a car and looks like a luxury vehicle. For UAE families who prefer not to spend too much money, this is the one that will genuinely surprise them.

Exterior

  • The front end is the most distinctive in its segment. The long bonnet, which accommodates the lengthwise-mounted inline-six, gives it an attractive look more like a rear-wheel-drive saloon than a family SUV. The slim LED headlamps are integrated into the leading edge of the bonnet, creating a sharp and elegant appearance that avoids the visual noise typical of most three-row family SUVs.
  • The five-point grille has chrome detailing around its border and a hexagonal mesh insert. The lower bumper is wide and structured, with angular air intakes that add visual width. The overall effect from the front is a composed, confident premium presence, and LED headlamps with adaptive front lighting are standard across all UAE variants.
  • The CX-90’s long wheelbase of 2,894 mm allows the designers to push the front wheels far forward and create a cab-rearward silhouette that reads as genuinely premium. The roof flows rearward with a gentle arc that does not compromise third-row headroom. The body lines are Mazda’s KODO language at its best: one clean character line from the front lamp to the tail, with no unnecessary creases. Chrome door handles and chrome window surrounds on upper trims showcase the intent. Power-folding heated mirrors with LED indicators are standard on all variants.
  • Preferred Plus: 20-inch alloy wheels; correctly proportioned but not visually dramatic against the body.
  • Premium and Premium Plus: 21-inch silver-metallic machined alloy wheels.
  • Tyre size on the 21-inch wheels: 235/50 R21, chosen for a comfortable ride while improving the car’s stance.
  • The full-width LED taillamp treatment gives the CX-90 a horizontally wide, composed rear stance. The tailgate looks clean, well-proportioned, and uncluttered. The dual chrome exhaust finishers on the lower bumper are symmetrical and appropriately restrained. The power liftgate with programmable height memory is standard across all UAE variants. Rear parking sensors and the 360-degree camera on premium and above variants make reversing in the tight multi-story car parks of Dubai easier.
  • Engine & Fuel Consumption Key Highlights Specification All UAE Variants Engine e-Skyactiv-G 3.3L Inline-6 Turbocharged Mild Hybrid System Yes (integrated starter-generator, 0.33 kWh battery) Power 280 hp @ 5,000 rpm Torque 450 Nm @ 2,000 rpm Transmission 8-speed Skyactiv-Drive automatic Drive i-ACTIV AWD (rear-wheel-drive biased) Fuel Economy 12.3 km/L combined (UAE conditions) Fuel Tank 74 litres Towing Capacity up to 2,200 kg Dimensions 5,073 mm L x 1,990 mm W x 1,710 mm H Wheelbase 2,894 mm Boot Space 449 L (all rows up) / 1,272 L (third row folded) City Performance With 450 Nm of torque from 2,000 rpm available at your disposal, the CX-90 moves off traffic lights and into merging lanes with a composure that most segment rivals at this price cannot match. The 8-speed automatic gearbox shifts with a smoothness that makes the powertrain feel more expensive than the price suggests. The mild hybrid system contributes 153 Nm during acceleration; city starts are particularly smooth without any hybrid hesitation. The 360-degree camera is essential at 5,073 mm long in Dubai’s tighter parking structures; it is standard in the Premium variant. Highway Performance At over 100 km/h on the E11, the CX-90 is the most composed family SUV in its price segment; cabin refinement is genuinely impressive. The rear-biased AWD platform gives stability at highway speeds that front-wheel-drive-biased rivals cannot fully match. Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go manages the Abu Dhabi to Dubai corridor independently; the system is smooth and well-calibrated for UAE highway traffic patterns. Sport mode on Mi-Drive sharpens throttle response and adds exhaust character without becoming intrusive. With a 2,200 kg towing capacity and dedicated towing mode, weekend trips to Hatta or Khor Fakkan with a boat trailer or caravan are within scope. Ride and Handling Kinematic Posture Control applies inner rear-wheel braking during cornering, reducing body roll without firming the suspension; the CX-90 corners with noticeably less lean than its height suggests. On smooth UAE highways, the ride is comfortable across all three rows. On rough and uneven surfaces in older parts of Sharjah or industrial areas near Ajman, the firmer suspension tune is more noticeable; rear passengers feel it first. The rear-biased AWD gives the car a driving character that separates it from anything front-heavy in this class; the CX-90 feels like it tilts from the rear, not pushes from the front.

Interior

  • Like one would expect from a premium SUV, the cabin is quite luxurious and makes a positive impression with its layout and quality of materials. The dashboard is a single horizontal plane of quality materials, with a 12.3-inch central infotainment display sitting flush with the surface above the Commander rotary controller. Soft-touch leatherette covers the upper dashboard and door cards on the Preferred Plus; genuine Nappa leather appears on the Premium Plus. The dual-tone cabin on the Premium Plus, black and tan, is genuinely striking in a way that the monochrome interiors of Korean rivals at similar pricing cannot match.
  • The 12.3-inch TFT digital instrument cluster is clear and well configured. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are wireless on the Premium and Premium Plus and wired on the Preferred Plus. The Active Driving Display is standard on the Preferred Plus.
  • One honest limitation worth knowing: the wireless charging pad is on the smaller side for larger UAE-market phones, and during spirited driving, it can shift. Owners report a minor annoyance with the wireless charging pad, which the marketing material does not address.
  • Power-adjustable heated driver and passenger seats are standard in the Preferred Plus. Ventilated front seats appear in the Premium; in UAE summers, this shifts from convenience to a daily necessity. Premium Plus adds memory settings for the seat, mirrors, and Active Driving Display positions.
  • The Mazda Driver Personalization System on the Premium Plus recognizes the primary driver and adjusts the cockpit automatically. Seat bolstering is more prominent than in the Hyundai Palisade, reflecting the CX-90’s driver-focused character.
  • Nappa leather on the Premium Plus is noticeably softer and more premium than the leather-appointed surfaces on the Preferred Plus.
  • The CX-90 has an electronic parking brake with Auto Hold standard across all UAE variants. Auto Hold keeps the car stationary at a traffic light or in stop-and-go traffic without requiring brake-pedal pressure, releasing automatically when you accelerate.
  • Preferred Plus: standard second-row bench seats three, with a folding center armrest and cup holders.
  • Premium and Premium Plus: available captain’s chairs in the second row with individual heating, creating a center walkthrough to the third row.
  • Second-row legroom is adult-sized; the long wheelbase pays back here directly.
  • Reclining second-row seatbacks on the Premium and Premium Plus allow rear passengers to settle in for longer journeys.
  • ISOFIX child-seat anchors are standard at applicable seating positions across all variants.
  • Third row: adults fit, and it is better than in most segment rivals, but on journeys over an hour, taller adults will notice it. Children are comfortable for the most part with dedicated AC vents and USB-C charging.
  • Three-zone automatic climate control is standard across all UAE CX-90 variants, without exception.
  • The front, second-row, and third-row zones each have their own temperature controls and dedicated vents.
  • Third-row passengers have overhead vents and a separate climate control panel.
  • No rear passenger is dependent on the front system; each zone manages independently.
  • This is exactly the specification that a premium family SUV at this price should offer.
  • Deep covered center-console bin, large enough for a wallet, phone, and keys without crowding.
  • Front door pockets accept a full-size water bottle; rear door pockets are functional for second-row passengers.
  • Dual front cup holders in a dedicated housing between the front seats.
  • Second-row folding armrest with integrated cup holders in both bench and captain’s chair configurations.
  • Generous rear door storage for second-row passengers.
  • Third-row passengers have two USB-C ports and a dedicated cup holder provision.
  • The front center armrest is padded and wide, covered with matching leather or leatherette to the seat surfaces.
  • The covered storage compartment beneath is appropriately sized for daily items. Second-row bench seats get a folding armrest with cup holders; captain’s chairs each have an integrated armrest.
  • The third-row outer seats are equipped with armrests, while the center position lacks one.
  • Six USB-C ports in total: two in the front row, two in the second row, and two in the third row.
  • Wireless charging, along with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, is available on the Premium and Premium Plus models, while the Preferred Plus model offers these features only in wired form.
  • 12V accessory outlets throughout the cabin.
  • With all three rows up, you get 449 liters, enough for a family weekend away.
  • Third row folded, and the space grows to approximately 1,272 liters.
  • All rows folded, and it becomes a massive 2,127 liters; the flat floor makes loading practical.
  • The power liftgate’s programmable height memory is standard and useful in structured car parks with lower clearance.
  • Safety Key Highlights Standard across all variants: Smart Brake Support front and rear, Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist, Driver Attention Alert, rear seat reminder, nine airbags including a center airbag, ABS with EBD, stability control, and ISOFIX. From Premium: 360-degree View Monitor with See-Through View and Trailer Hitch View, Front Cross Traffic Alert, and Smart Brake Support for Front Crossing. Premium Plus only: driver monitoring camera that watches for fatigue and distraction, Smart Brake Support turns across traffic, rear pedestrian detection, and vehicle exit warning that alerts when a door opens near cyclists or vehicles. The driver monitoring system on the Premium Plus is genuinely useful for UAE buyers who regularly commute from Abu Dhabi to Dubai at early hours.
