The Mazda CX-90 is the brand’s three-row flagship, built for households that need room for seven or eight without settling for a dull drive. At Santa Fe Mazda, 2704 Cerrillos Road in Santa Fe, you can climb into every row, fold the seats yourself and compare inline-six trims from the value-focused 3.3 Turbo Select to the 340-horsepower 3.3 Turbo S Premium Plus.
Whether you’re shuttling kids between Eldorado and school, loading skis for Taos Ski Valley or bringing visiting family to Canyon Road, the CX-90 is designed for full cabins and long days. Scroll through the inventory above, then use the guides below to narrow your choice.
Choose a second-row bench for eight passengers or available captain’s chairs for seven. Mazda lists 14.9 cu ft behind the third row, 40.0 cu ft behind the second and 74.2 cu ft with both rear rows folded.
The 3.3L turbocharged inline-six with 48-volt mild-hybrid assist makes 280 hp and 332 lb-ft on regular fuel, or up to 340 hp and 369 lb-ft in Turbo S trims on recommended premium. A turbo is a real asset at Santa Fe’s elevation.
i-Activ AWD and an 8-speed automatic are standard. Mi-Drive modes on equipped trims include Sport, Off-Road and Towing, handy for icy mornings, monsoon-soaked dirt roads and trailer duty.
Rear Seat Alert, Vehicle Exit Warning, Smart Brake Support, Blind Spot Monitoring and Lane-keep Assist come standard. Mazda models have earned IIHS Top Safety Pick+ ratings; ask us about the current rating for the CX-90.
Six gas trims build on one another. Most buyers find their answer by deciding how much towing, luxury and power they want.

Keep the three rows and add up to 26 miles of electric range (Mazda est.) for short trips across town, with a gas engine for longer drives.
The CX-70 shares the CX-90’s inline-six and platform in a five-seat layout, with extra cargo flexibility behind the second row and a sportier attitude.
If three rows are more than you need, the CX-5 offers standard AWD and an easy-to-park size for daily life around town.
A three-row SUV is a big decision, and as the only Mazda dealership in Santa Fe we make it easy to compare trims and seating layouts without a trip to Albuquerque. Bring the car seats, bring the kids, and test how the third row works for your crew. You can also look up your buying power in advance, review CX-90 financing and lease options and get a Kelley Blue Book Instant Cash Offer for your current vehicle.

Santa Fe Mazda at 2704 Cerrillos Road is the only Mazda dealership in Santa Fe, so you don’t need to drive to Albuquerque to compare CX-90 trims. Check the inventory above and call 505-372-0621 to confirm availability or reserve a test drive.
That depends on your family, but the CX-90 checks many boxes: seating for seven or eight, standard AWD, a long list of standard safety features and inline-six power. Bring your car seats and gear to see how it fits before you decide.
Both are well-regarded three-row SUVs. The CX-90 offers a turbocharged inline-six with standard AWD and a plug-in hybrid option, while the Highlander lineup emphasizes turbo-four and hybrid powertrains. Driving both back to back is the fairest way to decide which feels right for you.
A second-row bench gives you eight seats and is handy for carpools. Captain’s chairs reduce seating to seven but make third-row access easier and keep siblings apart on long drives to Taos or Albuquerque. Availability varies by trim.
Select and Preferred trims are rated at 3,500 lbs. Mazda states Premium Sport and higher trims tow up to 5,000 lbs with Towing mode and a genuine Mazda hitch, reduced by the weight of passengers and cargo.
Standard i-Activ AWD and available Off-Road mode make the CX-90 confident on snowy streets and mountain roads like the drive to Ski Santa Fe. Tires matter most in winter, so ask our tire center about winter or all-weather options.
Rates depend on your credit profile, loan term, down payment and any manufacturer programs running at the time. Rather than guess, apply through our online finance application or check current specials, and our team will explain your options.
Intervals for oil changes, tire rotations and inspections are laid out in your owner’s manual and Mazda’s maintenance schedule, and they can depend on driving conditions. Our service advisors can review it with you and set reminders; call 505-372-0446 or book online.
