Replying to: hcor (Jan 17, 2006 8:31 am) It's really tough to find accurate information on the CX-9 right now. All that is really known is that it will be replacing the MPV in 2007 as a 2008 model. The prototype vehicle has yet to be shown at any event yet. It's a possibility it may be shown at the NY auto show in the spring, as was the MX-Crossport concept last spring (now the production CX-7). I spoke with my rep at Mazda, and he didn't really have much to say on the matter, because Mazda is very tight-lipped about things like this. As for the size, it will probably be close to the size of the Chrysler Pacifica/Ford Freestyle. It will be a 7 passenger vehicle. As for the engine, it's rumored to have the new 3.5L Duratec engine by Ford that produces 250hp. It may have more HP, but like I said, that's all a rumor. There really is NO official information on this vehicle yet. All that is truly known is that a 7 passenger vehicle, called the CX-9, will be built by Mazda.

Replying to: hcor (Jan 17, 2006 8:31 am) I wonder what percentage of SUVs/Crossovers ever tow anything? |

Replying to: richml (Jan 18, 2006 1:00 pm) Exactly! Asking a crossover to tow is ludicrous.

Replying to: klunkman (Jan 18, 2006 1:40 pm) People buy corossovers because they want 1 v ehicle that can do a LOT of things for them. A reasonable tow rating is not too much to expect. |

Replying to: richml (Jan 18, 2006 1:00 pm) The towing capacity of the CX-7 is 2000lbs.

Replying to: audia8q (Jan 19, 2006 7:07 am) We've never used them for anything other than receiver-type bike racks. Think there might be a correlation - the more expensive the SUV, the less likely it is ever used to tow anything? |
