Performance & Capability for Every Mile
The 2026 Mazda CX-90 is engineered to deliver confidence from the first mile to the last.

Whether you are merging onto I-25, navigating a winding climb near North Cheyenne Cañon Park, or heading toward a favorite campsite with a small trailer in tow, the CX-90 feels planted and poised. Mazda’s Mi-Drive lets you toggle between Normal, Sport, Off-Road, and available Towing modes, so the SUV adapts to your route, your gear, and your driving style. Kinematic Posture Control helps reduce body lift for level, composed cornering, and available towing capability reaches up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped. With 8.0 to 8.1 inches of ground clearance (depending on wheels), smart power delivery, and a chassis tuned by driving enthusiasts, the CX-90 brings composure and versatility together in a way that stands out against typical three-row SUVs.

How the 2026 Mazda CX-90 Stands Out
- Standard AWD: i-Activ AWD® on every trim
- Turbo I-6 power: Smooth, responsive e-SKYACTIV-G 3.3L
- Advanced cameras: 360° View Monitor with See-through and Trailer Hitch views (available)
- Towing confidence: Up to 5,000 lbs when properly equipped
- Premium cabin: Available Nappa leather and refined design
- Drive modes: Mi-Drive with Off-Road and available Towing
Against other three-row SUVs, the 2026 Mazda CX-90 leans into its strengths: standard i-Activ AWD® across the lineup, a turbocharged Inline 6 that feels silky and strong, and driver-focused tech that simplifies daily life. Where popular competitors often start with front-wheel drive, the CX-90 gives you traction from the start—a real advantage when roads around North Nevada Avenue are slick or conditions are mixed on Monument Hill. The available 360° View Monitor with See-through View and Trailer Hitch View is another practical edge; many rivals offer an overhead camera, but the CX-90’s ability to “see through” the front and align a hitch precisely is a true confidence booster in tight spaces. Add in up to 5,000 pounds of towing when properly equipped and an interior that looks and feels upscale, and you have an SUV that balances weekend versatility with weekday polish. For Colorado Springs, CO families and adventurers alike, that blend is tough to beat.
