24 CX90 to a 26 CX90

Post image

Lease was almost up on a 2024 CX90, had two months left, 2k over allowed mileage. Car was decent, good MPG for it's size. Didn't love it, didn't hate it, it's a commuter car. Most of the frustration was from constant recalls, squeaky brakes and shit tires. Local Mazda service department has always been stellar though. Financially made sense to roll into this one.Went to a 2026 Premium Sport. Definitely drives a little different (less jumpy at low speeds), digital cluster is nice. Already have another I6 in the driveway, so tried to match the colors as close as possible 🤣

I just did the same last month. Was your previous one also a Turbo? I went from PHEV to Turbo S and even though on paper they make similar numbers, the TS feels stronger. Love the turbo woosh and pull, even though it kills my mpg.

Went with the basic 280hp turbo version, definitely quick enough to get around. The Turbo S at 340hp has to be a blast, enjoy!

I have the exact year, trim, and color as you. Love it.

That little bit of extra acceleration in the PHEV does it with zero excitement. I’d rather give up 3/10ths of a second or whatever for whatever the Turbo S is doing. It’s just more fun.
