Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2026 CX.
The 2026 Mazda CX-90 rides on the brand’s 90 platform and channels power through a six‑speed automatic transmission, delivering an EPA‑rated 24/31/27 mpg in city/highway/combined driving. Early ownership data shows just nine total complaints and zero recalls, with the electrical system accounting for the largest share of reported issues. That low complaint volume and absence of recalls indicate a comparatively clean reliability debut for the model year, though the electrical focus warrants attention as more miles accumulate.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
Owner complaints about the 2026 Mazda CX-90 lead in one area — the electrical system, 2 of 9 reports (22%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 0 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the electrical system pattern above.
