Russ Darrow Automotive Group – 2026 Mazda CX-90 Winter-Ready Traction and Family Comfort for Green Bay, WI, Drivers

When winter weather rolls in, a three-row SUV should offer more than extra seats. It should deliver confident control on slick streets, flexible cargo solutions for busy weeks, and technology that makes every errand easier. That blend of capability and comfort is why families and commuters alike turn to Mazda’s flagship SUV – the 2026 Mazda CX-90. With i-ACTIV AWD® standard, Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive), and a refined cabin designed for everyday life, this SUV excels in tough conditions around Green Bay, while keeping passengers relaxed and connected.

Drivers who prize stability in snow and slush will appreciate the way i-ACTIV AWD® continuously monitors wheel loads and vehicle dynamics to help distribute torque proactively. Pair that with Mi-Drive — featuring Normal, Sport, Off-Road, and available Towing modes — and you can fine-tune responses for varying road surfaces or when hitching up weekend gear. Inside, available Nappa leather-trimmed seating, an available Bose® premium audio system, and tri-zone climate control elevate longer trips. Thoughtful details like USB-C charging in the 2nd and 3rd rows on select models, plus seamless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration, add everyday convenience. For families, flexible 3-row seating for up to eight or available 2nd-row captain’s chairs meet changing needs without compromising comfort.

Standard i-ACTIV AWD®: Proactively adjusts torque for confident traction on slick, wet, or uneven roads.
Mi-Drive modes: Choose Normal, Sport, Off-Road, and available Towing to tailor dynamics to your day.
Cabin versatility: Configure seating for up to eight or opt for 2nd-row captain’s chairs for easy access.
Everyday tech: Enjoy Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, Bluetooth®, and Mazda Connect™ for intuitive control.
Premium touches: Available Bose® audio, ventilated seating, and an available panoramic moonroof enhance comfort.

Beyond winter traction, utility matters. Properly equipped models support up to a 5,000-pound towing capacity, making it easy to bring along a camper, small boat, or cargo trailer for year-round adventures. The available 360° View Monitor with See-through View and Trailer Hitch View simplifies tight parking and trailer alignment, and standard i-ACTIV AWD® keeps the experience confident once you’re rolling. When the day calls for errands instead of exploration, the spacious cargo area and 60/40-split 3rd row quickly adapt to boxes, groceries, or school gear.

Safety-focused shoppers will find assurance in the suite of i-Activsense® features. Smart Brake Support, Blind Spot Assist, Road Keep Assist, Lane-keep Assist, and available Driver Monitoring contribute to situational awareness and peace of mind. Families especially value Rear Seat Alert and Vehicle Exit Warning for those busy moments in parking lots or curbside drop-offs. Inside and out, the details reflect a commitment to calm, confidence-inspiring travel.
