With a wheelbase of 3,120 mm, the Mazda CX-90 is longer than many of the brand's largest high-riding vehicles currently sold in Vietnam, such as the CX-8 (2,930 mm). The CX-90 measures 5,100 mm in length, 1,994 mm in width, and 1,736 mm in height. These dimensions place the Mazda CX-90 in the large-sized category, exceeding most E-segment vehicles. In terms of wheelbase, comparable models include the VinFast VF 9 (1,499-1,699 billion dong) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee L (over 6 billion dong).

The interior design language of the Mazda CX-90 is significantly more luxurious than existing Mazda models in the domestic market. The vehicle adopts a luxurious and minimalist style.

All three versions of the CX-90 feature a 12,3-inch infotainment screen and a digital speedometer. The front seats include a cooling function, with the top-tier version adding heating. All seats are upholstered in Nappa leather, and the driver's seat offers 10-way power adjustment with a memory function.

Standard features on Mazda's flagship model include: a head-up display (HUD), three-zone independent air conditioning, a panoramic sunroof, second-row sunshades, and ambient interior lighting.

The plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Mazda CX-90 is equipped with a 2,5 engine and an electric motor, delivering a combined output of 323 hp and 500 Nm of torque. The manufacturer has not specified the vehicle's pure electric range, though the battery has a capacity of 17,8 kWh.

The self-charging hybrid (HEV) version of the CX-90 features a 3,3 turbocharged engine and an electric motor, producing a combined output of 340 hp and 500 Nm of torque.

All versions of the Mazda CX-90 come with all-wheel drive, but the manufacturer's setup primarily favors rear-wheel drive to provide a sporty driving feel. The vehicle is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The vehicle includes: lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, front cross traffic alert, rear cross traffic alert, smart brake support, a 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, and highway driving assist.

With a starting price of 1,9 billion dong, the Mazda CX-90 represents a premium option for affluent customers in the mainstream segment. It competes with three-row high-riding rivals such as the VinFast VF 9, priced at 1,499-1,699 billion dong, and the Volkswagen Teramont, priced at 2,138 billion dong.
