Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryTranslated, the Japanese concept of jinba ittai refers to a horse and rider as one. Mazda has adopted it as a guiding philosophy for all of its products, and among them, the 2021 CX-9 midsize SUV possesses the least of it. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a compelling choice in its segment, and changes for the 2021.5 model year make the CX-9 better than ever. | |
