2019 Mazda CX-9 Brings New Features and Refinements to Canadian Market


- Mazda's Flagship Crossover Adds Ventilated Seats, Apple CarPlaytm and Android Autotm to Options Roster -

RICHMOND HILL, ON, Aug. 17, 2018 /CNW/ - With each successive model year, the second-generation Mazda CX-9 midsize crossover has benefited from refinements, technology updates and performance improvements. The 2019 Mazda CX-9 is no different, with a host of improvements led by the addition of factory-equipped Apple CarPlaytm and Android Autotm infotainment technologies as standard equipment in the 2019 Mazda CX-9.

Mazda's engineers could have left well enough alone for their award-winning family vehicle but instead continue to make meaningful improvements to benefit drivers and passengers in all three rows. Among the updates are a refined, retuned suspension that offers a smoother, quieter and more natural ride and greater sound suppression by way of a thicker headliner and thicker floor mats, which aid in ease of conversation and enjoyment.
