The new Mazda CX-9 was previewed in November last year, but it was only slated to make its proper market launch in June. However, due to popular demand, Bermaz is now offering the seven-seater SUV for sale, albeit in limited units and in Australian specification.
They won’t be cheap, however, priced at RM316,788 for the two-wheel drive model and RM323,849 for all-wheel drive; prices are on-the-road inclusive of insurance, a new five-year/100,000 km warranty and a three-year free service package. By comparison, the previous-generation model retailed at RM296,646 in two-wheel drive form and RM337,748 with all-wheel drive.
Those who balk at the decidedly upmarket pricing will take solace in the fact that the CX-9 is offered in GT guise – only the Azami variant is higher-specced – and hence will at least be comprehensively equipped. Standard kit includes bi-LED headlights (with halogen daytime running lights), LED fog lights, LED tail lights, a powered sunroof and 20-inch alloy wheels.
Other features include keyless entry, push-button start, auto lights and wipers, cruise control, triple-zone auto climate control, leather upholstery, powered seats with driver’s side memory, a full-colour head-up display, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, rear side window blinds, a powered tailgate, an MZD Connect infotainment system with an eight-inch touchscreen, navigation, a reverse camera and a 12-speaker Bose sound system.
Safety-wise, the CX-9 is fitted with six airbags, ABS with EBD and brake assist, stability control, Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) and two ISOFIX child seat anchors in the middle row. It also comes with i-ActivSense driver assists, including front and rear Smart City Brake Support (SCBS), Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Assist (RCTA).
Under the bonnet sits a 2.5 litre SkyActiv-G turbocharged petrol engine with i-stop automatic start/stop and an i-ELOOP capacitor-based energy recovery system, developing 228 hp at 5,000 rpm and 420 Nm at 2,000 rpm. A six-speed SkyActiv-Drive automatic transmission is standard-fit. Fuel consumption is rated at 8.4 litres per 100 km on the two-wheel drive model and 8.8 litres per 100 km with all-wheel drive.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments mostly express disappointment and skepticism about the high pricing of the 2017 Mazda CX-9 2.5T in Malaysia, with many comparing it unfavorably to other SUVs and international prices. Several believe that the RM317k price is too steep, especially given the car's engine capacity and performance, and suggest waiting for secondhand models or CKD versions to achieve better value. Others mention that similar or better specs can be found in more affordable or luxury brands like BMW or Mercedes-Benz models. There is also criticism about the car's design, perceived lack of value for money, and the high taxes contributing to the inflated price. Overall, the sentiment is that the vehicle's price is unjustifiably high for the Malaysian market.
