Excitement beamed from Gulf Region Mazda PR Manager Jamie Tinsley’s face when TAWA announced the 2016 Mazda CX-9 won the Crossover Utility Vehicle of Texas at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo awards dinner. The off-road portion of the rodeo involved drivers selecting from three courses scattered around 1,650 acres of steep hills, ravines, streams and other obstacles – not to mention a wide array of exotic animals as they grazed throughout the property.
“Mazda’s all-new CX-9 earned class-leading marks from our judges particularly in exterior styling, premium interior finishes, the performance of the new SKYACTIV-G 2.5T powertrain and overall personal appeal in the highly competitive full-size CUV category,” said Nic Phillips, Texas Auto Writers Association President. “Mazda’s CX-9 is a combination of sleek style with exciting, driver rewarding dynamics and family efficiency which makes for an award winning package, one that carried the CX-9 to be our runner-up for the overall CUV of Texas award.” In the decade since the first Mazda CX-9 made its world debut, it has transformed the full-size CUV segment and is the brand’s grandest expression of KODO – Soul of Motion design. The 2016 model year offers innovative technologies, premium and authentic materials and is simply fun to drive with a focus on overall driver experience.
