Comparing the 2024 Mazda CX-90 to the 2024 Infiniti QX60

Mazda's unveiling of the 2024 Mazda CX-90 earlier this year showcased the SUV's luxury and refinement. This three-row SUV is not only a strong contender against mainstream brands like the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander but also holds its own against premium models, including the Acura MDX, Volvo XC90, and the Infiniti QX60. The 2024 Infiniti QX60 is undeniably luxurious, but a side-by-side comparison with the CX-90 might leave you pondering.


Key Differentiators of the 2024 Mazda CX-90:


  • Performance: The CX-90's inline-six turbocharged engine offers 280 hp and 290 pound-feet of torque. Although the 2024 Infiniti QX60 has a slightly higher horsepower at 291, its torque is lower at 271 pound-feet. The CX-90's turbocharged engine ensures better acceleration, especially at lower RPMs. The GTP and Signature trims of the CX-90 further elevate performance with a 320 hp version of the inline-six.
  • Efficiency: The CX-90 stands out with its fuel efficiency, averaging 8.5 L per 100 km with its base engine and 9 L per 100 km with the upgraded engine. In contrast, the QX60's V6 averages over 10 L per 100 km.
  • Plug-in Hybrid Option: The CX-90's plug-in hybrid variant not only enhances efficiency but also boosts performance. With 323 hp and a 42 km all-electric range, it outperforms the QX60 and can potentially reduce frequent fuel stops.

The 2024 Mazda CX-90 also impresses with its features, especially in the higher trims. It includes amenities like ventilated and heated rear seats, a 12.3-inch center display with wireless connectivity options, and a suite of connected services. Given these offerings, the CX-90's rising popularity is understandable.
