Mazda to consolidate CX-70 and CX-90 SUV lineups for 2027

Mazda has announced it will discontinue the CX-70 model in the United States starting with the 2027 model year. To simplify its large SUV lineup and reduce product overlap, the company will instead offer the CX-90 in both two-row and three-row configurations.

The decision follows underwhelming sales for the CX-70, which was essentially a two-row version of the CX-90. While the CX-70 will be removed from the North American market, Mazda confirmed it will continue to be sold in Canada and Australia.

For the 2027 model year, the two-row CX-90 will be available in Premium Sport and Premium Plus trim levels, powered exclusively by a 3.3-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine. The three-row CX-90 will continue to offer both the turbocharged engine and a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain.

Additional updates for the 2027 CX-90 include improvements to the rear suspension for enhanced ride comfort and increased quietness for the PHEV model through improved motor insulation. Four new exterior colors are also being introduced.
