The Mazda CX-90 enters its third model year with a refined lineup, a few thoughtful updates, and only a modest price increase. As Mazda’s flagship three-row SUV, the CX-90 continues to blend premium design, powerful engines, and family-friendly practicality. Here’s everything you need to know about the 2026 model.
What’s new for the 2026 Mazda CX-90?
For 2026, the CX-90 gets subtle but meaningful upgrades. Pricing now starts at $40,330 including destination, just $755 more than the 2025 model. The base Select trim brings standard features like all-wheel drive, 19-inch wheels, LED headlamps and taillights, and rain-sensing wipers. Polymetal Gray Metallic paint is now available, while Alexa hands-free technology is standard across the range. Inside, every CX-90 comes with faux leather seating for up to eight, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with paddle shifters, a 10.3-inch center display, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. USB-C ports and three-zone climate control help keep passengers comfortable and connected.
What engines are available in the 2026 CX-90?
Most 2026 CX-90 models feature Mazda’s turbocharged 3.3-liter inline-six paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. Lower trims deliver 280 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, while higher Turbo S trims boost output to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft. The mild-hybrid system not only aids efficiency but also sharpens throttle response, giving the CX-90 a refined yet powerful feel.
Is there a hybrid option for 2026?
Yes, the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) continues into 2026 for drivers who want more eco-friendly performance. It pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with a 17.8-kWh battery to produce 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. The PHEV can travel up to 26 miles on electric power alone before the gas engine takes over, making it ideal for short commutes or around-town driving.
What is the fuel economy of the 2026 CX-90?
EPA ratings are identical for both versions of the 3.3-liter engine, delivering 23 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. That means you don’t have to sacrifice efficiency to enjoy the extra power of the Turbo S models. The plug-in hybrid offers electric-only driving for short trips, while still maintaining plenty of power and capability when running in hybrid mode.
What trims and features are available?
The 2026 CX-90 lineup offers nine trims, giving buyers plenty of options. Premium features available across the range include 21-inch wheels, a larger 12.3-inch center display with wireless smartphone integration, a 12-speaker Bose audio system, a panoramic sunroof, and ventilated Nappa leather seating. Families will appreciate second-row captain’s chairs, generous USB-C charging ports, and a 360-degree camera system to complement Mazda’s suite of i-Activsense safety features.
When will the 2026 Mazda CX-90 arrive?
Mazda expects the refreshed CX-90 to arrive at dealerships before the end of the year. With its balance of luxury, performance, and practicality, the 2026 model builds on what already made the CX-90 a standout in the midsize three-row SUV segment.
