2025 Mazda CX-90 Turbo Select
Mazda's new CX-90 mild hybrid model, introduced in 2024, has replaced the now-discontinued CX-9 model and offers buyers a decidedly upscale full-size crossover SUV that is more than able to meet the demands of shoppers looking for a stylish and elegantly capable SUV.
The 2025 Mazda CX-90 is Mazda's largest SUV in its desirable and strong-selling family of capable SUVs.
Our article delves in detail into all that the 2025 Mazda CX-90 Turbo Select trim level has in store for prospective owners.
What's New for 2025?
The 2025 Mazda CX-90 has remained unchanged since its debut last year and shows no changes to the exterior or interior.
The 2025 trim lineup has, however, been tweaked to include a Premium Sport that replaces the Premium trim, and the Preferred Plus and base Turbo S trim levels are now discontinued.
Buyers now have a total of six trim levels with two engine options to choose from, including the subject of this article, the 2025 Mazda CX-90 Turbo Select.
Exterior Design and Features
The 2025 CX-90 remains the brand's flagship SUV, and, as mentioned, its exterior design continues to feature upscale styling.
The CX-90 Turbo Select, when viewed head-on, features a familiar Mazda family front fascia with its black honeycomb mesh grille surrounded by a stylish chrome accent trim. The grille's surround flows into the standard slim horizontal LED headlights that offer a convenient auto on/off and high beam control function.
Standard are the LED daytime running lights that increase passenger safety by allowing the CX-90 to be instantly visible to other road users. The rear of the CX-90 has also been given a modern lighting treatment, featuring standard combination LED taillights.
The Turbo Select is equipped with body-colored power side mirrors that feature integrated LED turn signals. All-round body protection is taken care of by substantial black front, side, and rear lower body molded trim. The large rounded wheel arches of the CX-90 Turbo Select see the fitment of black wheel arch molding tasked with protecting your CX-90's fenders from damaging branches when tackling country roads or even the odd runaway trolley in your local parking lot.
Mazda's design team has pulled out all the stops on the CX-90's elegantly handsome exterior, featuring numerous sporting elements, including a body-colored rear roof spoiler, rear privacy glass, and convenient satin chrome-finished aluminum roof rails that accommodate your roof racks.
The CX-90 proudly wears its standard "AWD" and "Inline 6" fender badges, allowing all other road users to see its credentials.
