When you're shopping for a new vehicle, how do you know you've found the perfect one? It's usually when you take it for a test drive and fall in love. The 2017 Mazda CX-9 is definitely worth the test drive, and Autotrader thinks so too. In fact, Autotrader named the Mazda CX-9 a 2017 Must Test Drive Award winner.

The expert editorial team at Autotrader makes their annual Must Test Drive selections based upon price, availability, and quality. In order to be considered, a vehicle must start under $75,000, be available at dealerships, of the current or next model year, and score 3.5 or above out of Autotrader's five-point scale.

What does this award mean? It means that Autotrader considers the Mazda CX-9 to be a vehicle Duluth drivers need to experience before making their final decisions.

Considering that the Mazda CX-9 contains 250 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, while still cruising at an efficient 28 mpg highway; and that it features available Nappa leather and an Active Driving Display that projects vital driving info safely onto the windshield so the driver can keep their eyes on the road... it's no wonder Autotrader loves it.

We think you will too. So explore our 2017 Mazda CX-9 selection, and arrange for a test drive at Rick Case Mazda!
