    The drive unit of the Mazda CX9 was chosen specifically to support high quality of the car, look and driving experience with a sophisticated yet exciting. Under the hood is a new MZI 3.7-liter V6 that produces 204 kW/273 essence hp (SAE net) of maximum power at 6250 rpm and a robust 366 Nm of torque at 4250 rpm - the engine is doing the most powerful of the Mazda range.
     


    The short-stroke 60 ° V6 has a cast aluminum block with the lines of cast iron cylinder and aluminum cylinder head - for minimum weight and durability - and adds advanced engine technologies to combine optimal performance with acceptable fuel consumption. These include the sequential distribution (S-VT) Optimized torque at all speeds. It also has a high compression ratio of 10.3:1 and electronic throttle control, which helps provide an immediate response to pedal input for a lot of fun to drive. Two catalytic converters to ensure that the Mazda CX9 meets Euro IV emission standards.

    Yet despite its fun to drive, the 3.7-liter V6 MZI has low levels of NVH for a crossover SUV. To accomplish this, a cylinder block, high rigidity is used to reduce engine vibration, the mountains next to the motor housing are reinforced to reduce transmission of vibrations, and forged steel crankshaft has a dual-mass damper for smooth operation. Camshaft vibration is kept to a minimum the use of gears with a rubber ring pad, and the intake manifold is designed to reduce input ripple and air resistance.
     


    Automatic six-speed manual transmission mode Shift

    These engine technologies are combined with a six-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode as standard equipment. This transmission provides an optimum balance between ride comfort of acceleration, and quiet.

In automatic mode, which offers a sense of movement and quick response to pedal input sports, and about manual shift modes similar functions travel guide to the best of both worlds.

    Chassis and Safety - Secure and responsive

    Mazda CX9 surrounding the rigid body and chassis systems - combined with smooth power and cultivated its V6 engine - how exciting driving experience that is not in an SUV this size. And these superior dynamic attributes play an important role in making the thing-in-class special CX9.
     


    Zoom-Zoom handling

    Mazda CX9 body has a very rigid structure in the lower body with members of the Cross of multiple under the floor, a reinforced upper torso region of the C-pillar, a high-strength steel B pillars and roof reinforcements special. This structure is made more robust by integrating the seat frames between the cross beam of the floor and using as many points as laser welding and weld bonds than most of its competitors. All this results in torsional rigidity and bending high, which provides superior stability and Zoom-Zoom handling - without Mazda's flagship SUV too heavy.
     


    McPherson front suspension uses a 6-point frame mounting rubber perimeter. This provides strong support and a sharp, linear feel to its welfare system hydraulic steering rack and pinion. The multilink rear suspension uses a trailing arm and two lateral members place on each side and a rear frame with two rubber feet on each side. It connects the points later in the arms are positioned higher than normal, which further improves stability while braking. The link layout is optimized to provide consistent wheel alignment when the external forces acting on the rear suspension for handling predictable.

    Superior Traction - Mazda Active Torque-Split All-Wheel Drive

    A major factor for the foreseeable handling Mazda CX9 system is its Active Torque-Split all wheel drive provides traction in all road situations. Based on the system used by the Mazda CX-7, which monitors road conditions, operating conditions of the ABS / DSC, wheel speed and engine operation to optimize the torque between the front and rear wheels (100 : 0 to 50:50). Based on these factors, the system automatically selects the snow or normal mode, and torque is distributed to the front and rear wheels of the coupling unit optimized for traction.

    High level of security

    Mazda CX9 is also one of the safest SUVs. Active safety systems include a high seating position of great visibility at all, compared to large and rear ventilated disc brakes (320 mm and 325 mm respectively) in combination with Roll Stability Control (RSC), ABS, emergency braking ( EBA), Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) and DSC (depending on market and grade). The foundation for system security is Mazda CX9 passive helmet. Using high-tensile steel and large members only part of the body, it disperses impact energy in the custody of the passengers and the deformation of the body to a minimum during a collision. Also on board is a sub-frame extension designed to help prevent before the front of the Mazda CX9 up to the front of a vehicle coming in a frontal collision.
     


    Passengers are further protected by front, side and curtain airbags for all three rows (depending on market and grade), the three-point seat belts with pretensioners and force limiters for front seats, a collapsible brake pedal and specially designed support headroom to help reduce neck injuries during a rear impact. No wonder the Mazda CX9 received the highest rating possible five stars in the test center front and side impact crash by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and a rating of four stars resistance rollover.
