An all-new introduction in 2007, the Mazda CX-9, is the automaker's first seven-passenger crossover sport-utility vehicle. The CX-9 returns for 2008 offering elegance and versatility.

The 2008 CX-9 is equipped with a 3.7-liter V-6 engine that produces 273 horsepower and 270 lb.ft. of torque. A Blind Spot Monitoring System is an available option.

The Mazda CX-9 is a break from traditional boxy utility vehicles, blending sporty driving spirit with seven-passenger practicality. The 2008 CX-9 is a medium-sized crossover utility vehicle riding on the class's longest wheelbase and providing easy access to its three-row seating.

Highlights of the 2008 CX-9 include: standard six-speed Sport A/T automatic transmission; available in front-wheel drive or Mazda's Active Torque Split all-wheel drive system; sophisticated appearance with rising beltline, bold wheel and tire emphasis and steeply angled windshield and backlight.

On the inside is an elegantly configured interior constructed with top-quality materials; available Bose premium sound system with 10 speakers in a Centerpoint surround system, available rear seat entertainment DVD system, available DVD-based navigation system with 7-inch touch-sensitive display screen and backup camera and Power Lift Gate.

Standard is the Roll Stability Control and side curtain airbags which protect outboard passengers in all three seating rows.
