The Mazda CX-9 is a mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Mazda in Japan since 2006 in two generations. It features three-row seating, making it Mazda’s largest passenger vehicle until the introduction of the CX-90. Notably, the CX-9 was produced in Mazda’s Ujina #1 plant in Hiroshima Prefecture but was never sold in the Japanese domestic market, with the Mazda CX-8 being offered as an alternative in Japan.

The first generation (TB; 2006) of the CX-9 initially came with a 3.5 L Ford V6 engine. However, in 2008, the engine was upgraded to a 3.7 L unit that generated 204 kW (274 hp) and 366 N⋅m (270 lb⋅ft) of torque. This updated engine, produced by Mazda themselves, was introduced in June 2007.
