The largest SUV from Mazda, the Mazda CX-9, has been updated in Malaysia for the 2021 Model Year.
Bermaz Auto has given its flagship three-row SUV, the Mazda CX-9, an update for 2021. The vehicle has been designated the “Ignite Edition” with its new set of equipment and styling pieces.
Under the hood, the Mazda CX-9 is still powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged petrol Skyactiv engine with a 6-speed automatic sending power to either the front wheels or all-wheels – both variants are available in Malaysia.
The engine produces 228 horsepower and 420Nm of torque, a respectable amount in this class. It’s also worth noting that the Mazda CX-9 is still fully imported from Japan, as it always has been. This means it only gets a 50% SST discount, unlike CKD models that get full SST exemption until the end of 2021.
