2025-mazda-cx-90

If you want a versatile vehicle that can fit your whole family comfortably with three rows of seats, two commonly compared options are the 2025 Mazda CX-90 and the Kia Telluride. Both vehicles offer an excellent driving experience that’s fit for multiple environments, but the Mazda CX-90 wins out with its luxurious design and exciting power. North Penn Mazda compares these models in detail.

Performance Showdown

Both the 2025 Mazda CX-90 and Kia Telluride are highly capable SUVs, but the Mazda CX-90 stands out with additional engine options and features. Its standard 3.3-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine makes up to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque when using premium fuel. There’s also an innovative plug-in hybrid version of this vehicle that emphasizes efficiency. The Kia Telluride only has one engine – a 3.8-liter V6 that makes 291 horsepower.

As with all 2025 Mazda SUVs, you’ll receive the impressive i-Activ AWD® system completely standard. The Kia Telluride only has all-wheel drive available as an extra option. This new Mazda vehicle also has M Hybrid Boost, an intelligent feature that utilizes a small electric motor for improved fuel economy and additional thrills.

Interior Comparison

The 2025 Mazda CX-90 has a more premium cabin when compared with the Kia Telluride thanks to its refined materials and advanced technologies. The Mazda model focuses on a luxurious look and feel above all else with Nappa leather seating and a wood trim. The Kia Telluride has a more practical cabin that makes it easier to clean and maintain, but it doesn’t provide the same quality as the Mazda CX-90.

The Mazda CX-90 comes standard with two massive 12.3-inch screens, while the Kia Telluride comes with a 12.3-inch center display and a 4.2-inch instrument cluster. The Mazda CX-90 also includes available options like a 360-degree view monitor with a see-through view and an active driving display.
