As planned, the new 2012 Mazda CX-9 makes it official debut at the 2012 Sydney Motor Show, ahead of its market launch before the end of the year. Mazda’s new full-size SUV gets a fresh KODO-inspired face, which makes you think, are all new Mazdas going to look the same because of it? I mean they all share the same sort of grille and headlights. That’s not very good, you know.

Apart from the looks, the new Mazda also gets lots new features. Enhancements in craftsmanship and interior design further the feeling of quality and refinement. With regard to equipment, the infotainment system features the latest audio, navigation and speech-recognition systems based on the Human Machine Interface (HMI) which is intuitive to use. In addition, advanced active-safety features, such as Forward Obstruction Warning System, Lane Departure Warning System, and High Beam Control System, help drivers recognize and avoid danger.
