The 2024 Mazda CX-90 is a superb three-row SUV that will take Mazda’s biggest SUV further up the luxury ladder. It’s the very worthy successor to the current Mazda CX-9 crossover that has long been a favorite among families around Fargo and beyond. The Mazda CX-90 has been launched with a new 3.3-liter turbocharged 6-cylinder engine that can give you up to 340 horsepower. There’s also a plug-in hybrid powertrain that’s available for the CX-90.

Meanwhile, the venerable 2023 Mazda CX-9 continues to deliver a more satisfying driving experience than competitive family SUVs. Here’s a brief look at both vehicles that are currently available at Mazda of Fargo and Fargo ND.
Engines and performance in the Mazda CX-90
The CX-90 is the first Mazda model to offer a new turbocharged 3.3-liter six-cylinder engine that’s enhanced by a 48-volt hybrid system. The powertrain can deliver 340 horsepower in S trims and 280 horsepower in non-S trims.
A plug-in hybrid variation is also available with the same 323-horsepower configuration used in the European market. It’s comprised of a four-cylinder engine, an electric motor and a 17.8-kilowatt battery pack. Buyers from Hillsboro and Grand Forks ND will find that the 2024 Mazda CX-90 plug-in hybrid can make the run from zero to 60 mph in just 6.6 seconds.
The engine in the Mazda CX-9
The 2023 Mazda CX-9 comes with a single turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and the goal was to get a little better result in terms of fuel economy. The Mazda CX-9 can go from zero to 60 mph a little more slowly than the CX-90, taking about 7.1 seconds.
Fuel economy and charging times in the Mazda CX-90
Official EPA estimates have not been released but the 6-cylinder engine can give you 24 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway. The plug-in hybrid model has a 17.8-kilowatt battery pack that provides 26 miles of electric driving range. Charging at home with a 240-volt outlet requires an overnight commitment but you can do a partial charge in a shorter amount of time.
Fuel economy in the new Mazda CX-9
The front-wheel drive version of the Mazda CX-9 can give you 22 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway. If you go with all-wheel drive, you’ll get 20 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway.
The interior of the Mazda CX-90
The Mazda CX-90 is Mazda ‘s new flagship and comes with an abundance of luxury materials in a well-designed cabin. The interior is handsome, the leathers are supple and the standard infotainment screen is a 10.25-inch display. Wired smartphone connectivity and an 8-speaker stereo are also standard. You can upgrade to a 12.3-inch display, wireless smartphone connectivity and a Bose stereo system with 12 speakers.
The interior of the new Mazda CX-9
The Mazda CX-9 has one of the most luxurious interiors of any mid-size SUV. Like the CX-90, it comes with a 10.25-inch standard display. Also standard are a tri-zone automatic climate control system, proximity keyless entry and moonroof.
Try out both three-row SUVs at Mazda of Fargo
The new Mazda CX-90 is an exciting new three-row SUV that your family will absolutely love and it’s available right now at our dealership. It represents a bold step forward for Mazda and it’s well worth experiencing in person. The new Mazda CX-9 is also worth exploring and makes a good comparison with the larger CX-90. Compare both SUVs and arrange a test drive with the Mazda of your choice at Mazda of Fargo in Fargo ND.
Navigating wintry roads can be intimidating for many Grand Forks drivers. Treacherous surfaces from snowy or icy weather and reduced visibility demand a dependable and competent vehicle capable of addressing these challenges effortlessly. The 2023 Mazda CX-5 is an exceptional candidate, offering an ideal fusion of comfort, safety, and performance, making it a prime choice for mastering winter roads. At Mazda of Fargo, we’d like to explore the distinctive features that elevate the Mazda CX-5 and make it the ultimate choice for winter driving enthusiasts.

Superior Handling with Preemptive Technologies
A primary concern for drivers during winter is sustaining control and grip on slippery and ice-covered surfaces. The Mazda CX-5 comes outfitted with a proactive all-wheel-drive (AWD) system that substantially augments its maneuvering abilities. Its state-of-the-art Off-Road Traction Assist feature collaborates seamlessly with the i-Activ AWD system to deliver a smooth driving experience around Fargo.
The i-Activ AWD system is engineered to adjust to rapidly fluctuating road and weather situations by examining various elements, including braking actions, throttle input, wiper activity, and ambient temperatures. Consequently, the system can proactively calibrate wheel power allocation to preserve traction and ensure a responsive driving adventure for Hillsboro drivers.
Built-in Comfort for an Enjoyable Winter Driving Experience
The Mazda CX-5 does more than shine in maneuverability and performance; it also guarantees that drivers and passengers can relish a snug and inviting ride throughout the frosty winter season. Heated seats and a heated steering wheel supply warmth and solace. The deluxe Bose sound system and interactive 8-inch infotainment touchscreen display system with Apple CarPlay integration confirm that the Mazda CX-5 is as user-friendly as it is cozy.
The 2023 CX-5 also has a dual-zone automatic climate control system that helps create a more comfortable and customized temperature setting for all passengers. The infotainment system offers seamless access to your favorite music, real-time navigation directions, and various vehicle settings, contributing to a more enjoyable driving experience.
An Expansive Suite of Cutting-Edge Safety Features
Safety is a pivotal factor when traversing winter conditions, and the Mazda CX-5 boasts a wide-ranging suite of sophisticated safety features to safeguard drivers and passengers alike. Blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warnings, and rear cross-traffic alerts support Grand Forks drivers in circumventing collisions and maintaining command in any weather.
For added peace of mind, the 2023 Mazda CS-5 has additional safety and driver-assist systems, including adaptive cruise control, which adjusts the vehicle’s speed to maintain a safe following distance, and Smart City Brake Support, which helps prevent or minimize the impact of collisions at low speeds by applying the brakes automatically if the driver fails to respond. The CX-5 also has a rearview camera display as standard equipment that helps make parking and maneuvering in tight spaces and crowded lots much easier and safer.

Explore the Upcoming Mazda CX-90 at Mazda of Fargo
The new Mazda CX-90 is arriving very soon, and no one is more excited than your friends at Mazda of Fargo. Featuring an exciting new engine, luxurious interior appointments, and modern styling, it appears to be an SUV that everybody can get excited about.

Engine and Performance of the Mazda CX-90
The first-ever Mazda CX-90 is powered by the first-ever Mazda inline six-cylinder engine. Turbocharged for additional power output and efficiency, this groundbreaking new engine produces up to 340 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. Mazda developed this new SUV from the ground up to be performance-focused, relying on a new rear-biased all-wheel drive layout. An emotional driving experience should come standard.
The Mazda CX-90 is a vehicle of historic firsts. Alongside its revolutionary new engine, it’s also expected to use an advanced 48-volt hybrid system. Note that this will be separate from any plug-in electric hybrid (PHEV) version that may arrive. With power and dynamics at the forefront of this new Mazda SUV, it promises to be the most exciting vehicle in the lineup to date.
Exterior Styling
The 2024 Mazda CX-90 will turn heads around Hillsboro, featuring an elegant design that Mazda says was inspired by harnessing the power of light and shadow. It boasts a handsome and upscale exterior design with visible fender flares, premium lighting elements, and other powerful exterior cues. Every square inch of the new Mazda CX-90 has been developed with passion and precision at the heart of the design and informing every decision.
An Amenity-Filled and Cavernous Interior
The upcoming SUV is expected to offer a little more interior room than the Mazda CX-9, which this vehicle is replacing. Three rows of seating are expected to be offered standard, with room for up to seven passengers. The outgoing Mazda CX-9 featured captain’s chairs, a power sunroof, wireless charging, and many more amenities that we expect to find in the replacement Mazda CX-90, but more details will follow as packaging is finalized.
While specifics are still vague, we are sure to find high-quality materials that make the inside of the new Mazda SUV feel special and luxurious. Leather, brushed aluminum, genuine rosewood, and more are likely to be available and give the cabin of the new Mazda CX-90 an unmistakable charm.
Modern Technology
While we will still need to wait to see what standard safety features Mazda has in store for us, the usual suite of driver assistance technology is sure to be available. That includes blind spot monitoring, lane-keeping assistance, frontal collision warning, a surround-view camera system, rear cross-traffic alert, Mazda radar cruise control with stop and go, and much more. The new Mazda CX-90 promises to be an enchanting companion when it comes to highway safety.
In line with the rest of the vehicles in the Mazda lineup, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration are expected to be standard equipment and make staying connected a seamless experience. Mazda Connected Services and a full-color center touchscreen will make everything from changing your music selection to altering drive modes an intuitive experience. We can’t wait to see how easily configurable and easy to drive the Mazda CX-90 is.

How to Winterize Your Vehicle with Mazda of Fargo

When winter comes around, the cold weather can cause serious issues to your vehicle. If you’re looking for a place to prepare for the coming cold properly, we here at Mazda of Fargo are here to help. Take a few moments to read about how you can winterize your vehicle.
Inspect Your Battery
In the winter months, the cold weather can affect your battery. The last thing anyone wants is to be caught out in the cold with a vehicle that won’t start. By having your battery inspected at our service center in Fargo, ND, we’ll ensure that their battery is in working order. We’ll even replace it should it not be running at peak performance.
Change Your Oil
Due to cold weather, the oil in your vehicle can begin to thicken and move slower in your engine. To make sure you’re using the right oil for the season, bring your vehicle to our service center and will provide you with proper low-velocity grade oil so that it can operate all winter long.
Replace Your Belts and Hoses
Because the belts and hoses in your vehicle are made from rubber and plastic, they are more affected by cold weather. The cold can cause your belts to thin out and your hoses to crack. If you’re a Hillsboro resident and spot any of these issues, head to our service center right away.
Take Advantage of Our Service Center
When it comes to preparing your vehicle for the winter, there are many ways to do so. And we’ve only scratched the surface. If you’re a resident of Grand Fork and wish to learn more about how to get your vehicle ready for the cold, contact our service center and they’ll be glad to help you out.
