Unlike the CX-9, which came with only one drivetrain, Mazda created the CX-90 with multiple, including the CX-90 PHEV. Just like its gas-powered counterpart, the PHEV model can seat up to eight passengers if drivers go with its Preferred trim. The Premium and Premium Plus trims, however, lose one seat, giving enough room for only seven passengers. They might not seat as many people, but those seven passengers will be riding in comfort even if the driver decides to test its estimated 490 mile max range.
The latter two trims also give those in the second row heated seats, a luxury commonly enjoyed by those only in the front seats for most vehicles. If you have the Preferred trim with its three seats at the rear, the trunk can hold 14.9 cubic feet of belongings when both the second and third rows are sitting up. Lowering the third row increases that storage space to 40 cubic feet, and 74.2 cubic feet with both third and second row of seats folded down. Opting for the seven seat arrangement increases the cargo space to 15.9, 40.1, and 75.2 cubic feet, respectively.
