Hell yeah !!
DOES YURI HAVE A PERSONAL CHANNEL? 🤔
NICE REVIEW! 👍
0:36 he “censored” Alexa in order to make sure ours don’t activate. Respect ✊😂
Or is there another reason that I don’t know about lol that’s just what I thought
I’m not trying to set off your devices in the middle of the night while your kids are asleep 👍👍
@@TheStraightPipes The fact that he replied 🙌🏾
I honestly really like Mazda right now, and I'm really impressed with their current designs. Their minimalist approach is a refreshing change from the older Japanese car designs, which I didn't find very appealing. Now, Mazda is making beautiful vehicles that are not only affordable but also high in quality and reliability. The only area where they could improve is in the customization options! you should be able to mix and match any color combo you want!, then they'd be absolutely perfect in my book.
I legit think they’re building me a red on red
Coming from a current gen Mazda owner, there's a few things I believe they could improve on. 1. Their paint is literal eye candy but horribly soft. Mine looks like it's been through a whole sandstorm with the amount of paint chips it has. 2. Their OEM tires suck. I'm finding that all new Mazda's come with terrible tires from the factory that have little grip and barely last 30,000 miles. 3. Gloss black trim, EVERYWHERE. Good luck keeping them boys from scratching. However, it looks like they listened to consumer complaints and removed ALL of the interior gloss black in the newer CX-60, 70, and 90s. 4. Safety systems. This mostly applies to early models but some of them barely work (i.e., lane-keep assist, front collision mitigation) and/or are not calibrated correctly. I recently test drove a current 2024 Mazda and it seems to be mostly fixed. 5. Finally, we can all agree that Mazda doesn't make great use of its interior space. However, that is mostly due to the new gen design which I think is worth the trade off.
@@stevenlam4802 Wow, lucky you're getting 30k, Mine are toast at 15k (Falcon Ziex on a CX-9)
In my city I can see a lot more Mazda now. More new CX-5 than CRV. Love it.
Drink every time Yuri says "color matched" :)
Isn’t that all that really matters.
Color match cladding looks sooooo much better!
Agreed, but that old man amber beige color belongs on a 2004 Lexus.
Ha ha! S for subscribe from Motormouth. Do you know Zack from your motoring days?
Just know him from our first days doing press trips!
Respect to Zack. One of the Canadian OG!
Motormouth is awesome!
@@CerealKiIIer Do you remember watching him when he was a host on Driving Television with Lacey Elliot? 😯
I really hope they do a StraightPipes open in return!
Yuri clipping in every other car reviewers review of the CX-70... 😂
Let’s go baby Palm Springs! They didn’t have footage of the black cladding one with red but luckily raiti and redline did walkarounds the week before
I thought my phone was glitching 💀
This colour is absolutely eye catching. I just got an SUV before the release of CX-70 came otherwise I would’ve taken this. For the value, its absolutely a steal.
Mazdas are cool, they combine BMW style exterior and Lexus style Interior with Mazda engineering, I hope they succeed but the current market is difficult for a brand like this.
they need to have a mazda 6 with this powertrain, then we're talking
I loved their mx-30.
BMW styling??? BMW ' Fronts are ugly. That Big Grille belongs on a Semi not a car .
I’ve been upset that my PHEV doesn’t have color matched, but in my first month, I rubbed it against the garage and my no color matched cladding caught a nail and doesn’t really look bad with the damage where a painted piece would looked wrecked. So what I really wish was I had color matched cladding and didn’t make mistakes, but this is functional for someone like me lol.
How excited I was to get my hands on one of these bad boys for a test drive last week! Sales for hybrids are on fire 🔥 right now
Couldn’t you just put the seats down in the back row of the CX-90 so you can still have the extra seats and have the same cargo space? Why get rid of them?
Great review! Although I’m going to hold on to my CX-30 until Mazda puts their 6 cylinder to something smaller. Come back, Mazda6!!
Is that Yuri the guy from ACCELER8?
I fully agree with you about the color matched cladding, it makes the car look more upscale and gives it a fuller presence, which I feel is what people want in an SUV.
Good to see they "fixed" the issues with the CX90.
It looks so much better with the color matched cladding! I wonder why Mazda thought Americans wouldn’t want it. At least make it an $300 option or something.
Well done Yuri!
Lol what happened at 1:24
Shoutout Motormouth S for Subscribe youtube.com/@motormouth…
@@TheStraightPipes You said "put it in", and then Motormouth Andrea said "an ass for subscribing". I don't know how I feel about that...
Thats exactly what I thought! I ran straight to the comments to see if anyone else noticed!
@@user-iz3gv5vo6b I've gotten so irritated by that line now that I have stopped watching their videos altogether!
@@anig9005 I'll give them a mulligan this time. It's like how comedians sometimes make stupid off-color jokes that go over the line.
I definitely heard “Put it in-Ass for subscribing!” 😂
oil up first
Sidenote, the intro music to the video is a bop 😃
CX-70 looks so much fun!
Hi Yuri! Just FYI, the transmission has a wet start up clutch. It DOES NOT have a torque converter. The wet startup clutch replaces the conventional torque converter. It is exactly what Mercedes does with their AMG Speedshift MCT transmissions.
Interesting. I was confused by all of it.
ya but its crap ...clunky laggy issues
Hell no... not laggy at all@@davidg11134
still disappointed they didnt just bring the cx 60 from overseas. cx 70 was going to be my next car :(
Can’t believe they mailed this one in.. simply take a cx90 and put the back seats down. This should have been the size of rdx and gv70… or slightly bigger. Taking about about 15 inches from the rear they also could have gotten rid of the bulge/bubble
What would you have called the cx-90 with no back row.
@@TheStraightPipescx nine-0
@@TheStraightPipes Still a CX-90?
@@TheStraightPipes How 'bout CX-90 Sport! - It's a trim level.. not a whole new model number.
Is this a serious question? Lol@@TheStraightPipes
I completely agree!! I still have the V6 they last did. It's still working beautifully
One of the most entertaining informational reviews yet!
Oh look…Yuri has a Maaazda. Good looking rig…. Palm Springs in the spring….thats WHEN to do it….😂 Nice golf swing.
I remember when they used to have the mazda tribute. That was a cool suv and now my wife has 22' cx5 they've come a long way
I can’t wait for this to come to Australia later this year. This would be perfect for my family of 4
Nice shout out to Raitis!
Bought the cX 60 inline 6 diesel (EU) jet black , black interior, black rims 👌
Great swing! Maybe you should sneak in golf content into every video, Yuri 😆
Color matched cladding is the way to go. I think Mazda did the right thing calling the two row variant of the CX90 a CX70. It’s going to be easy to identify a two row vs three row at Auction. The two row also has the potential of being the more sporting of an SUV
It's 200 inches long, how sporting can it possibly be?
Coming from a 39 yo 5'8" 150 lbs RCAF guy who learned @ CFB Borden (Circled Pine) by myself, you're leaving torque on the tee box Yuri. Your bending of the knees from the address position works against you (range/distance), because if you were more upright / pivoting your shoulders more so than the hips... an additional 10-30 yds could be in the cards. Takes flexibility, tough quads & tough lower back. But doable.
Such a beautiful design. Mazda should have tucked the rear wiper under the spoiler.
Yuri-- where di you get these b-roll shots from? Does MazdaUSA supply these walkarounds or the large drone footage by the wind turbines?
That color I love it . The inside too... Luxurious or am I tripping.? 🤗
Way better looking as the X5 and q5 etc. Got mine in jet black, black interior and black rims. Inline 6 diesel. Love it 👌
I usually let our dog drive while I nap in the back. For some reason, she’s missed her last three vet appointments while we keep winding up at the dog park. 😄
I'm looking forward to the CX70 vs Atlas Cross Sport comparison.
Lol love the cameos in this review 🤣
2:19 as far as I know, the transmission is a launch-clutch AT without torque converter.
I think it has auto start/stop that is a pain to disable with multiple steps. Is that correct? Also, the sunroof does not open very much.
Nice swing Yuri😁
Love the looks of the cx70, and the cargo space. I currently own a cx50 and im please, i may in the future get the cx70 😅
There is a setting in the infotainment to always show I-active view which is the view you see in cruse control. (Work at a Mazda dealership)
Ya but then you’re stuck in cruise control view. I just want the speed to show in the middle in normal like is can in every other mode
as a CX60 owner I don't understand why they didn't just use the rear end from that car instead of the bulbous CX90 one, I think it would look so much better especially with the new front bumper
By far my favorite car of the year
wont be with all the issues it has
One complaint. It’s a 90 without the third row. So now I waiting on a 60…
This reminds me of what Kia did with the last generation Sorento. They sold the same vehicle, one with two rows and one with 3 with no difference to the body. The only difference is that they didn’t rename it lol.
I really want this Mazda to be a great car, not just a good lease option. Hate to hear those valves hitting the pistons, hope this won’t happen here
Mazda South africa should consider bringing this masterpiece in our market, i do believe it will sell pretty well, more especially having a chance to spec it the way we want like the one Yuri is driving.
Sofyan in the straight pipes review!
Hey Yuri, Are you sure you can tow 5000 pounds with the PHEV if you add the dealership towing package? On the website it says 3500 pounds max. Thanks!
Have a CX-5 and love it… cx-70 looks good. 🤔
Yuri, awesome job! Is it 150 lbs less than the CX-90? And, did you feel that the transmission was silky in the city (lowest gears, under 30 mph)? Thanks!!!
Felt way better in the city yes than the first cx90s we drove
It's about 40 lbs lighter. You lose the third row but gain foam and more plastic.
You and Jakub should do a road trip top gear style
Notice in the video the set of golf clubs in the back. They have to go in at an angle. Gives you an idea of how narrow the space is for such a big car. In many of the other 2 and 3 row competitors to the Mazda, you can actually or almost fit a set of golf clubs in sideways. A Subaru Outback actually has a wider back storage area and it is a much smaller car. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but if you and a buddy, or couple buddies go golfing, it really makes a difference being able to put the clubs in sideways and stack them on top of each other. Something you can't seem to do with this pretty large vehicle. Maybe if you removed the Driver and all the woods you could do it.
This is a nice Mazda car, so amazing, I want one too.
Mazda is so underrated 👌🏼
Do they still have the pulsing indicator lights? I’ve seen some newer Mazdas and they don’t see. To have them anymore. BMW tried to copy them and my gawd it’s so jarring when you’re behind one.
You are a legend for muting the word "Alexa".
I’m just here to help
is this and the cx90 still oddly harsh for the class of vehicle? I love the way they look but for a family hauler I'm more interested in the comfort vs sportiness.
It’s definitely good looking
When you do reviews separately from each other, we all feel a sense of loss. But I, for one, realize what great car reviewers you both are.
Aw thanks
Yuri thank you for being true to what this vehicle is” not a BMW X5 competitor/substitute”. So many reviewers have done a dis-service by trying to match this up to a BMW X5 or Audi Q7. This is premium from the world of Toyota Hylander or a Ford Explorer. It competes with the likes of MDX etc.
Truuu this doesn’t compete with the cost of repair and Mazda drivers are forced to use their blinkers.
Well they brought an X5 (along with an RX and a Jeep GC) to one of their press events to compare the rear cargo room and brag about how they removed the third row from another model and called it a different model. Maybe they did a disservice to their customers.
Bmw is so scared of this that they wouldn’t let us compare the x7 to cx90
@@TheStraightPipes Sarcasm? They are in entirely different classes and I doubt they’re scared. The CX-90 feels less agile, has a rougher ride, engine, and transmission, feels more cramped, has worse isolation, and is way more affordable.
Legit bmw wouldn’t let us have an x7 if we compared to the cx90
The S for subscribe from motormouth 🤣 I thought it was a glitch, I had to rewind
0:18 nice swing, what course was that in Palm Springs?
Indian wells
No pumped in Audio. Carplay works with touchscreen while driving if activated in settings.
LMFAO ayo what was Jakob wearing at 18:40?????
This vs Genesis GV70 whats your pick?
This
This is 40cm (1.3 feet) longer than a GV70 they don't really compete lol. Even the GV80 is still plenty smaller than this.
I have one complaint..IT'S NOT THE CX-60!!!
Me Too!
Luckily it is not a CX-60
I need that color for the 3 hatchback.
🔥 Yuri 🔥
You can always have your spedo in the middle you have to go to settings, displays, instrument cluster, and then click always show Iactivsense and it will be on. Personally I like the look of it better
I really love this CX-70 it is an amazing car and it is certainly better than CX-90 due to its bumpers and all of that :)
Oh and most definitely the color matched plastic cladding is just THE WAY to go. (Please Mazda, even offer that in the CX-30)
Now my complaints (which is only one): I think this shouldn't have been a separate model, but instead just options added to the CX-90, you know "Third Row Seats: Yes or No", "Sport Design Bumpers: Yes or No" and "Melting Copper Metallic Paint: Yes or No" and make the CX-70 just a slightly redesigned CX-60.
Why? Because not everyone wants to drive the luxury Mazdas and have a 6153848 meter long car. Besides, the CX-90 exists, this even costs the same as that, so just bringin over the CX-60 to fit between the CX-5 and the CX-90 was a no brainer in my mind.
But, oh well, I'll have to wait till the next gen CX-5 to have a normally sized car with current Mazda luxury (You know, the current CX-5 is more like 3rd gen Mazda 3 luxury than 4th gen Mazda 3 (and all other current Mazdas) luxury) or perhaps even a RWD Mazda 6 with this level of luxury? 👀
(Mazda please, make a new Mazda 6, we are begging you :( )
No people weren't begging, that's why it was canceled. If they had made this a CX60 like vehicle they would've had to cancel their#1 name plate, the CX5.
*_Isn't this shade of copper quite similar to the Rose Gold Rolex Day Date/Skydweller???_*🤩😍
The Mazda does handle nice. Zoom zoom.
Nice vehicle!
Still waiting for them to fit this engine setup in a mazda 3 mazda racing model (probably impossible but imagine tho)
Hahaha, Yuri, the ads that showed up was all Mazda! That is kind of a sign that they know they are on the right track because usually I see opposing competition ads on your videos but like I said this time it was pure Mazda all the way.. Hahaha
Ya I saw they’re throwing cx70 ads on anyone watching any Mazda videos this week and last week!
@@TheStraightPipes ❤️
i smashed the liked button after those fire swings!!
I like the black cladding better.
Everything in this car is beautiful. No one does like Mazda
Cargo area climate vents are super nice for long grocery store runs in hot climates, like from the central Palm Springs and back from the only Costco which is in Palm Desert. Or for pets. Thanks for addressing the lack of them in this, although they're weirdly low in the CX-90, so not sure how effective they are. When I test drove the 90, my only complaint was the intrusive engine noise, which I've since heard is largely piped in. Hopefully it's defeatable. Stupid corporate decisions.
8:05 Why does this look EXACTLY like my Audi's switchgear? Like exactly.
This car is pretty dope
mazdas are such a no brainer these days. nice interiors, fun to drive, top notch reliability. so happy with my old af cx 5
Yup. Loving my 21 Mazda cx5. Wish they made a minivan
Isn't there a button on the steering wheel (left hand thumb) to answer calls? My 22' Mazda3 and my 23' Miata do
Ya but CarPlay I dunno
Do you known if the turn by turn nav from Apple Carplay or Android Auto pass to the instrument cluster?
No don’t think so
Too bad Mazda doesn't offer the tan interior on the CX-60 and 80 in the EU🥲
Am loving that interior colour😍
I really think that mazda made the perfect non performance 2 row suv. Unless you want a x5m or a gle 53 or 63 amg this is a better looking and as a better interior
Black cladding has grown on me. I like the contrast
Better when it’s gloss
Crazy how the trunk looks so much bigger than a RAV4's yet they're about the same volume (at least listed spec)
CX90 without rear seats, but costs more!
color matched cladding just looks WAY more expensive. So many manufacturers ignore this. There are only a few car companies that even give you the option to get this trim painted from the factory. Kudos to Mazda for giving us options - but the PHEV should also get the option. Especially with how much these cars cost.
How is the road noice?
Are there no pickup / decline call buttons on the steering wheel lol? I wouldn't want to click the touch screen while driving.
There’s a rotary wheel you can use.
Ya just twist the dial on click and press down. Or on the wheel I think there’s a button
@@TheStraightPipes Our CX5 has buttons on the steering wheel, did they remove that in the new models? Whyyyyyyy would they do that >.
What happened to stuffing named boxes in the trunk?
It took up so much time to film and with us having kids now it’s a lot more simple for us to just skip it.
That's been a long time since they did that
Yuri what would you take over this in terms of price range?
I don’t know. Odyssey or sienna? Ill need a 3 row in the future
