The Mazda CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid is a three-row SUV that brings electrified performance to family travel. With seating for up to eight, a luxurious interior, and a powerful plug-in hybrid system under the hood, it’s a strong choice for Longwood-area drivers who want to reduce fuel usage without giving up size, capability, or comfort.
Whether you’re shuttling to soccer practice in Lake Mary or planning a road trip across Florida, the CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid is built to handle it all—with fewer stops at the gas station.
Under the hood, the CX-90 PHEV pairs a 2.5L four-cylinder engine with an electric motor and battery system. Combined, the setup delivers up to 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque when using premium fuel. That means plenty of strength for merging, passing, and towing—without the sluggish feel some hybrids have.
The CX-90 PHEV can travel an estimated 26 miles on electricity alone, making it ideal for daily errands or short commutes around Longwood. When more range is needed, the gas engine takes over smoothly, offering up to 500 miles of total driving range. With a Level 2 charger, the battery recharges in around 2.5 hours, and it can also charge using a standard household outlet overnight.
The CX-90’s interior is spacious and well-organized, with room for up to eight passengers depending on configuration. Buyers can choose second-row captain’s chairs for easier access to the third row or stick with a bench for maximum capacity. Materials are high-quality throughout, with available Nappa leather, real wood accents, and stitched dash trim on higher trims.
The front seats are wide and supportive, and third-row passengers enjoy more space than in many midsize SUVs. Tri-zone climate control, multiple USB ports, and rear sunshades help keep everyone comfortable, whether you’re stuck in traffic or cruising down the Turnpike.
With all seats in use, the CX-90 PHEV still offers usable cargo room behind the third row—enough for bags, strollers, or sports gear. Fold down the third and second rows, and you get up to 75.2 cubic feet of space for larger items, from furniture hauls to camping gear.
A power liftgate comes standard, and thoughtful storage cubbies throughout the cabin help keep smaller items organized. The flat load floor makes it easy to slide heavier items in and out of the back, even when space is tight.
Despite its size, the CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid drives with surprising balance. The rear-biased all-wheel drive system delivers strong grip, while the 8-speed automatic transmission keeps the power delivery smooth. Whether you’re cruising on I-4 or maneuvering through tight parking lots in Altamonte Springs, the CX-90 feels stable and composed.
With the proper equipment, the CX-90 PHEV can tow up to 3,500 pounds—enough for a small trailer, camper, or boat. Drive modes include Normal, Sport, EV, and Towing, letting you tailor the feel and efficiency based on your day’s plans.
Every CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid includes a 10.25-inch or available 12.3-inch center display with Mazda’s intuitive infotainment system. It’s controlled with a rotary dial, keeping screen interaction minimal while driving. Wireless Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ are included, and upper trims offer a head-up display, 360º camera system, and a premium Bose® audio system.
The driver display includes PHEV-specific readouts like EV range, energy flow, and charge status, making it easy to monitor your usage in real time.

Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go
Smart Brake Support with Pedestrian Detection
Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Traffic Alert
