Used 2020 Mazda CX-9 SUV Trims Comparison

Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional, except for the AWD-only Signature trim. Buyers who opt for all-wheel drive will also get Off-Road Traction Assist. The system sends torque to the wheels that have traction in slippery conditions.

The base Sport trim comes with a long list of standard features. It offers 18-inch alloy wheels, an eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat with lumbar support, heated front seats, a 7-inch touchscreen, six-speaker audio, two USB ports, keyless entry, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. High-beam control and rain-sensing windshield wipers are newly standard. Automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, radar cruise control, lane departure warning and lane keeping assist are also included.

The Touring model adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. The touchscreen increases to 9 inches, the front passenger seat gets six-way power adjustability, and both first and second row seats are leather-trimmed. The second row also has a sliding function, and a center armrest with two cupholders and two additional USB ports. A power liftgate rounds out the package.

Step up to Grand Touring for 20-inch wheels, adaptive front lighting, LED foglights, a power moonroof and aluminum roof rails. Inside, there is a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, 12-speaker Bose audio and integrated navigation. The second-row seats are heated, and the third row gets two USB ports. Surround-view monitoring and front and rear parking sensors are also added to the fold.
