Reviews SummaryTwo years ago, Ford redesigned its popular Explorer midsize three-row SUV. It moved to a rear-drive platform, added an optional hybrid powertrain, and offered everything from a value-rich base model to a luxurious Platinum trim level. Since then, Ford has added ST-Line and Timberline trim levels while simultaneously honing the Explorer’s packaging to appeal to the broadest cross-section of Canadians possible. | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2022 Mazda CX-9 is a midsize three-row crossover SUV with a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine, a six-speed automatic transmission, and standard all-wheel drive (AWD). Offered in five trim levels in Canada for the 2022 model year, the CX-9 starts at $41,300 and rises past $53,200. | |
