Hey guys, we will be doing a second part, but this time will get the Mazda CX90 PHEV which is supposed to be faster than the CX90 Turbo S based on some numbers I have seen. Stay tuned.
I think that would make more sense
Thanks
saw a CX90 challenge a BMW X5 - guys needed to races a more comparable model. looking forward to the CX90 PHEV . Thus try the full Gas version
This video didn’t even compare the Turbo S. You compared the base 280HP spec in this video.
Thats not the 340 HP cx90. That's the base model cx90. All turbo S models have the silver inline 6 badge and the 280 HP badges are all back like this one in the video. You ain't fooling no body!!!
The Mazda CX-90 you have is not the Turbo S with 340 hp. You have the 280 hp one. You can tell by the exterior. If you are going to use the top engine options for the Toyota GH and Ford Explorer, should have used the higher output Mazda or the PHEV which are quicker. The 340 hp 3.3 tuned engine does a 1/4 mile in 14.7 seconds according to many other car enthusiast. Still would have lost to the Toyota GH by 0.3 seconds, but would have been closer. The PHEV would have been even closer with a 14.5 seconds 1/4 mile run and 5.9 seconds to 60 and losing to the Toyota GH by 0.1 seconds in the 1/4 mile.
I am rebooking the PHEV again.
@@SamCarLegion clown
@@mbenton6lmao its still slow relax
Yeah, was gonna say that this CX-90 is clearly not the 340HP version. This needs to be done correctly.
Dude the MAzda disappointed you because you lied about the specs. Clearly you had the 280hp, SMH do better.
I've come to expect nothing more from this guy. So glad the comments section has some brains...
yes tht black badge
This Mazda is 280 HP
And you confirmed that once you didn't show the rear.
That is not the cx 90 turbo s the turbo s has colored fenders first of all and different badging
This is a 💩 video
Bro didn’t even know what Mazda he’s driving and the specs. The base CX-90, which you had, only has 280HP, NOT 340HP like you said. Least have your numbers and details right when doing comparisons.
I did have my numbers correct- I was booked in the wrong car. Btw they are exactly the same engines. Just tuned differently
@@SamCarLegionyou has thr 280 model and not the 340 model.
Based on the badges and wheels the Mazda looks like a turbo gt which only has 280 bhp got to get the GT-P or the signature trim in Canada or any three versions of the turbo s in the states to get the full 340 hp
This Mazda trim has only 280 hp. A bit misleading, you have to use the turbo S premium plus for a fair comparison
This Mazda has 280hp not fair
I think the Mazda only has 280 hp not 340
There's more than one version of the 3.3 on the cx90. The cx90 makes 280hp and the 3.3 hybrid makes 340, which is the one shown in the video.
@@Kevin-zx4ltno. There’s the base turbo that makes 280. Then there’s the turbo S which is 340, with premium (it’s like 318 with regular). Then there’s the PHEV. WHAT HE HAS THERE IS THE BASE TURBO (280)
@@locondcoco well he actually says in the video that he has the cx90 hybrid. It has 323 HP. Was he wrong? Yea. Was I wrong? Yea. It's still not 280hp
@@Kevin-zx4lt all CX90s are hybrids (mild vs plug in). In another comment he said it was the GT, which has the base engine.
YES. Only Turbo S (NOT shown in this video) claims 340 HP.
The mazda badge looks like its a 280hp only. Maybe im wrong. I dont think 340hp turbo s will be behind a grandh.
This is the cx90 base engine trim with 280hp model. The inline6 fender badge is black not chrome. The black interior also is for a base trim model
He doesn’t even understand the difference between standard hybrid and mild hybrid.
Base engine Mazda? In what world does Toyota even come close to beating Mazda?
Wrong trim for the CX 90, my guy!
As expected The explorer is a rocket.,
That explorer is crazy never judge the cover
Don’t have to when you see a ST badge. Everybody that knows anything knows it’s quick
Yup. Even the Explorer Sport is want to see it against them.
I judge every explorer. It's a cop car and i can't unsee it.
@@Freddy_ConfettiThe Platinum and KR don't have the ST badge and are just as fast 😏
@@e-hills9271 that’s nice. When it’s a st explorer
Like this one rite here in the video (that’s relevant to what I’m saying) you know it’s somewhat fast
How in the world would “premium gas” add 60hp. 😂 wrong model of the CX-90.
Ask mazda their Turbo engine do that :)
@SamCarLegion no they do not. Only the turbo S models and not on the base 280 hp model you have. Premium fuel does nothing.
You must be getting paid to be a liar since you’ll address this question but not the fact that YOU LIED ON CAMERA FOR A PAYOUT. Shady mfr
@@MarshallJames-dh3gi we need the million dollar payout 💰💰💆💆
So the Explorer ST is not only the fastest but looks the best as well!!
On the outside, yes. Interior is a different story
@LoneWolfHustle I will agree there but that is changing here in a few months
Yes explorer is hot and beautiful
@@LoneWolfHustleI like the interior of the Mazda, but the Explorer’s still looks better than it. The Toyota interior is hot garbage… and in every model they make! I have never seen an interior that looks good in any Toyota. Especially the Tundras, they look better now in the newest gen, everyone before this one was horrible.
Ford is the worst, not reliable, it would take you faster to the mechanic
That’s the 280hp CX-90 not the 340hp version lol. Please correct that. It’s not a fair race. You got the slowest Mazda CX-90 vs the fastest Toyota GH which costs significantly more too. Different tuning. The Turbo S has a tune that increases boost pressure and other variables to actually give it that higher number. The GT will only ever produce 280hp since that base tune is limited to that with or without premium. Turbo S on the other hand will have 340 only on premium and 320 I believe on regular.
lol you Mazda boys are hella crying in the comments
@@goofy_xf6223 bruh crying? He’s simply wrong but too painfully ignorant and arrogant to admit it
C'mon....you got the wrong Mazda man
Makes zero difference
@@SamCarLegion you don't know what you are talking about
@@d.j.cantelli8074 of course you do
@@SamCarLegion yeah actually
@@d.j.cantelli8074 then film this race and shows us :)
RX500h F-sport Performance vs MDX Type S please! 🙏
That would be awesome!!!
Why RX instead of TX?
The tx 550h is more comparable
tx 500h or 550h would be a better comparison
@@blackwhirlwind1245rx has optional 3 rows like mdx plus they r similar
So we are now living in a world where a 4 cylinder engine is faster than a V6 with larger engine displacement
Haha, whenever you said 1 1/2 car lengths it was more like four. And when he said maybe two car lengths it was more like 6, or, um maybe 5 Grand Highlanders anyway LOL
We love our ST. Great family car that is a hoot to drive. I've been able to manage 0-60 in 4.9 sec (100% stock). 40,000 miles and zero problems (except passenger seat lower trim piece that always breaks...gave up trying to fix).
4.9???
Sure bud
@@vicktharula8317 seen plenty of 5.0-5.1 claims… 4.9 doesn’t seem unattainable
If you want a better race against the Explorer ST, you need a BMW X5 xDrive 40i. In a 1/4 mile it’ll hang with the ST. But after the 1/4 the BMW is getting walked. The ST ain’t no joke!
@not2dae57 I've been defending the Explorer ST since the first comparison with the MDX Type-S and the GV80. I can't wait to see the Explorer ST run against the BMW X5 xDrive 40i. I want to shut up all of these BMW fan boys once and for all!
@@DalHarpJr I leased a 2020 Ford Explorer ST for my wife. She loved it, at first I wasn’t crazy about it but it grew on me and then I just straight loved it. I started driving it more than I drove my 2018 Dodge Charger Daytona 392. The lease ended on the Explorer and the refresh model didn’t drop on time so she went to Mercedes. But when the refresh drops, I am definitely leasing it for me. The ST is a different animal! For the performance and price; there are absolutely no competitors. The BMW X5 40i with the same features as the ST, is north of $80k. More like $85k.
They both trap about the same speed in the 1/4. Itll be a good race though
@@DalHarpJr yes sir
Grand Highlander hybrid max is a powerful 3 rows suv no doubt.
I knew something was off with this CX-90. Even with premium fuel, it still wouldn't make the 340hp in the Turbo S because it has slightly different engine management. Plus the high output Turbo S has body colored side mouldings instead of black. But even that model would still have lost to the GH, though not quite as badly.
But why not put it against the phev? This guy is ridiculous. He literally choose the base Mazda run again fully spect cars. If I were Mazda I wouldn’t let him touch any Mazda products
wrong trim on mazda…. thats a gt… at least get a gt-p
I appreciate the Toyota's straight line speed but the Mazda would kill in the handling department all day every day
As much as I love the ST the wife has one, The Mazda would destroy it in handling as well.
Considering the design of the Highlander and the utility of it. It’s impressive, love Fords, own a F-150 powerboost and can’t say enough good things about it. Also own a Regular Highlander Hybrid and both vehicles are amazing and fun to own.
2024 Sonata N line vs G70 2.5t 🙏🏽
Canadian market is a little different with trim levels. Was the CX90 a GT or GTP? 280hp vs 340hp. Both have mild hybrid setup with the 3.3t inline 6 but have 60hp and 37tq difference. Always enjoy your videos nonetheless!
Glad I made the right decision with the Exp ST! Looks and performance 🫶🏻
Yes way that hybrid max isn’t a regular hybrid. It’s there for power and efficiency don’t think of it as like a normal hybrid though they do have a regular hybrid version of that vehicle. But that 2.4L I-4 Turbo with that Hybrid max battery its 363hp I believe with close to 400lb torque.
The Ford Explorer ST is the winner due to gaving more power and being lighter in weight. Also, quicker shifting as well.
Im a little morbid and wanted to see the explorer vs the mazda😂
I have had my eye on the ST for about a year...thanks to u I got to have it!!!
I'm confused. Is this CX90 the the base 280 HP engine or the Turbo S 340 engine? Why not use the PHEV 323 HP instead since it's more a closer comparison? That being said, getting one MPG less on the inline six compared the Toyota's i4 hybrid is remarkable.
It’s the base 280. You can tell by the exterior trim
@@locondcoco that's what I thought. I just wasn't sure since trim levels differ between countries.
That's the base model cx90 claiming it to be the cx90 turbo S PP. That is not the 340 HP cx90. This dude is a joke
Thank you Ford (never thought I'd ever say that )
Good morning, what an awesome video thank you!
Good morning!
@@SamCarLegioncan you please redo maybe you didnt know but the cx90 you used only comes with 280hp the 340hp version is only the top trims and have a red in the skyactivg badge
That Toyota sounded like it was in a lot of pain during the rev “test”
That’s because HEVs don’t let you rev the engine the same way a regular a gas model does. Regardless of the way they sound they’re nowhere near as strained because of the boost from the electric motors.
@@tails300 I understand how it works, I just love how it sounded as if it were screaming in agony when it was revved (because you technically aren’t supposed to at a standstill)
The great news is, the Toyota and the Mazda will still be on the road, won't have squeaks and rattles, and will still be free of rust after they turn two years old.
Thanks Sam CarLegion, we really appreciate your hard straight forward drag race.
Could you please race Honda against GH and CX 90 ?
And use the Turbo S version of the cx90 not the base model inline 6 next time. 🤦
Thats definitely not the turbo S model. All turbo models have the silver and black toldinline 6 badge. Actually, the base model inline does not benefit from the premium.
Who donthis guy think he's fooling... thats not the 340 hP cx90 at all. Plus the base model does not benefit fit from premium gas.
Even the birds were laughing at the Toyota after the final race 😆
lol you really got a ST racing those 🐢
Should a bolt-on Explorer ST running on a ZFG e50 race tune, will blow everyone’s mind.
I know, I have one and I hurt feelings daily 🤣
The Grand Highlander Hybrid Max is turbo charged 4cly with the hybrid system giving you 340hp.
362hp
Interesting, will Aviator be similar to ST or not.
They have both one engine (3.0 400hp)
If you actually raced the correct Mazda (Top trim 6 or PHEV) this would have been close. And I know thisbis a drag race but for practicality i am willing to bet neither of the other two handle like the Mazda
It wouldn’t have been close with the top trim - the phev maybe. I asked them for PHEV, I was booked for that, but then I got this.
Gotta drag race the palisade/telluride again!
I liked your clip
The Ford Explorer ST is one of my favorites
Not to mention that with its twin turbo engine the basis for improvements is excellent
Stage 1 will bring the power in the receiver to over 500 HP.
The Grand Highlander is a great performer for a 3 row SUV, and did anyone else notice or care how much quieter it was than the other two?
Banger after banger🎉
Don’t disrespect the explorer ST going against that toyota sienna
Where is this?
Hi Sam, can you consider this pleae . X3M40i vs SQ5 ?
And GLC43 AMG
Ford is impressive with their twin turbos
Interesting combination 🤔
wrong spec you got on the cx90 i got the turbo s inline 6 and doesn't look like that, what ypu got us the 2.5 with hybrid assist with 310 hp
And this is why police cars are explorers. Love mine!
Seems the Ford ST driver was break boosting on launch.. you did not break boost the Toyota
Regardless of the HP specs or any other differences, I believe the major factor is the driver. That guy knew what he is doing or followed instructions lol. well Jokes aside, you're doing a great job. Just make sure to research and compare compatible vehicles before making any comparisons. Keep it up, buddy!
Ferrari Purosangue VS Lamborghini Urus Performante Please
That Explorers transmission shifts quick.
I would love to put my 2013 volvo xc60 r design against some of these newer suvs, I believe it would do pretty well it has a 3.0L turbo inline6 with 325hp 354tq and it weights 4225 pounds.
The BMW X5 should be a good race. Depending on trim levels .
Whatever tires the Explorer has on it are clearly very good
It would be cool to see all three trims of grand highlander race against race other ( it turbo4 vs hybrid vs hybrid max). Similarly cx90 regular inline 6 vs turbo s vs PHEV
It's the base model. All cx90 are MHEV or PHEV which is standard 323 hp. This standard turbo is 280; the one in the video. Then there's the Turbo S and Turbo S Premium Plus which I have; all Turbo S models are 340 hp. The one he has is not the turbo s
That CX90 didn't have the 340hp variant. The Turbo S with that power has the chrome "inline 6" badge on the fender which this one doesn't. Also, the transmission design makes it slow at launching since it uses the (16hp?) Electric motor on the mild hybrid from 0 to about 3-5 mph before locking the clutch.
do you have the right specs on the mazda lol
Next Outlander PHEV vs RAV4 Prime vs Tuscon or Sportage PHEV.
We’re filming that next week
@@SamCarLegion OMG can't wait, I'd be watching that as soon as it gets uploaded!
This is a really good drag race but if u can drag race ford explorer st against Lexus tx 550 h+ that would be interesting
How about the MDX vs explorer ST?
We did already
Difference between the Grand Highlander and Explorer is that the Grand Highlander can pull off those speeds while getting over 30mpg
I’d be curious to see how the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe would do against that Explorer ST.
I could give a damn about a drag race give me that Mazda 😍
@SamCarLegion please do a drag race with the kia telluride and it's competition. Thank you! Love your videos!
None of these new cars make my blood boil any more,
Small engine, turbocharged, hybrid, EV...... super boring.
EcoBOOOOST POWER FOR YOU!! That Explorer has hidden Power with that Twin Turbo engine.
That explorer moves.
Fuel consumption test?
We did
It’s all marketing gimmick by car companies. No one drives 0-100kmph on regular basis. No one drives like this in a city and they hardly use full throttle once in weeks or even months unless you drive on a highway regularly
naw.. that Mazda aint spec'd right.. it sounds like the base engine
Same engine
For the love of God, DIFFERENT TUNE! extra coolong extra boost, you don't have the GTP! Please get a mazda brochure and read the specs
@@SamCarLegionyou're an idiot. You know nothing about car. That's the base model v3hicle you clown. How are you racing a 280 hp mazda cx90 against a 362 grand H. You are a clown
You should have bought the 2.3 Ecoboost. It would have been REAL close to the GH. and it would still have eaten the Mazda's lunch.. They can go ahead and try the PHEV Mazda, and the 2.3 will STILL outrun it (500+ lbs less curb weight).
The quickest version of the CX-90 is the PHEV. That would have been a very close race with the Highlander.
we have booked the CX 90 PHEV against the Toyota grand Highlander, max hybrid for a drag race
@@SamCarLegion I bet it will still loose by a car length or two instead of a bus length or two. I guess you will make the mazda fan boys happy.
@@brianb4501 The CX-90 PHEV should hit 60mph (100kph) in just under 6 seconds. It should be very, very close to the Grand Highlander.
That's not even the cx90 turbo S Model. This guy is a clown
Your comparing the wrong Mazda output the PHEV has a inline 4 cylinder Turbo, you need to drive the Turbo S Inline 6 to be a match with the Grand Highlander.
Highlander cabin seems a lot quieter than cx90??
Nah
The Mazda is just as quiet
If anything the Toyota will be quieter day to day just because it’s a hybrid
Cx90 turbo is a lot quieter than GH
@@mbenton6 after being in both. Yes I agree CX-90 is way quieter. I’m surprised.
Holy crap you guys have 94 octane in Canada wish we had that in America
Good morning! Thanks for an awesome breakfast video
Good morning!
No matter what Mazda they bring, the Explorer is in a total different league.
You should have did the hybrid max TT v6
I really hope the inline 4 turbo hybrid engine makes it to the TRD camry 😅
That Mazda isn’t a turbo S it seems to be a turbo with 280hp
U should have compare the grand Highlander with the Pilot
The Honda pilot would get smokes with the grand Highlander max hybrid
@@SamCarLegionmaybe 2.4T 4 cylinder turbo vs 3.5 NA
El mejor es el toyota, tiene el motor mas pequeño, pero super potente, mas ahorrativa de combustible, y puedes pisarle todo el tiempo sin preocuparte por el consumo.
Do Highlander vs Pilot drag race!!
I want to see a breaking test on these cars.
