Well that's interesting. Do you think it's safe to say that it will be just as fast from 0-60, if not faster?
..."on paper".Hi,
On paper it looks like Mazda benchmarched BMW. Almost same power, almost same weight, same height and same gear ratio. The CX-90 is bigger.

I recall hearing that German manufacturers are renowned for underrating their engines so I am very curious to see real world camparos!
On paper yes but German manufacturers are renowned for underrating their enginesWell that's interesting. Do you think it's safe to say that it will be just as fast from 0-60, if not faster?
So does anyone think the reliability of these cars will be identical past the warranty period?
There is a reason you lease a German car and not buy it.
Yep. I've never leased a car before, but I always hear about BMW in particular having great leasing options. Plus, you'll never have to worry about out-of-warranty repairs if you lease.
I don't know if it's likely, but if the Turbo S can get to high 5s, it'll be a real bargain for the speed and size combo. Just cause the MDX gets low 6s, and the type S gets mid 5s (Not 100% sure on those numbers but pretty sure). I just hope it feels super luxurious AND like a mazda, because the features per price don't seem to be the highlight of the cx90. If it drives more controlled and athletically than most of the luxury competitors then I think it'll attract of lot of buyers purely for the driving experience. One can hope, but we shall see.I figured it would be too good to be true lol. Still, if the CX-90 Turbo S clocks in the low 6s I think that's good enough to compare the two.
Car and driver has always achieved the best 0-60 times because their test is actually very close to 0-60 with no rollout. They have added a 5-60 MPH time and publish both. Mid, rear engine, and all- wheel drive vehicles have an advantage with 0-60 times, all other things being equal.This video explains what is commonly known as "1-ft rollout".
That is how auto mag measures 0-60 time.
So, in real world testing when you drive it, add 0.3-0.5sec to it.
The truth about 0-60 mph Times - Rollout and how it is used...
One of the most common metrics thrown around by enthusiasts - yet one of the least understood is 0-60 times and how they are measured.Hopefully this clears t...www.youtube.com
Yes, but the brand's overall reliability has always been "better-than-average", whereas BMW's has been average or below average.Reliability is up in the air since we don't have any real world ownership data on the CX-90. Cost of ownership should be in Mazda's favour, though.
Car & Driver writer, David Bedard, described the Mazda CX-50 as the "Macan of mainstream SUVs that feels like it was developed on twisty roads." Now that's a great compliment! Mazda knows how to inject great handling into their vehicles.I don't know if it's likely, but if the Turbo S can get to high 5s, it'll be a real bargain for the speed and size combo.
