Mazda CX-9
If you need to transport seven passengers and a minivan would run counter to everything you stand for, Mazda suggests the CX-9, which has been around since 2007. Its 3.7L V6 is paired with a six-speed automatic gearbox. It’s very comfortable, offers a lot of interior space (up to 2,850 litres once the back seats are lowered) and since it contains only proven mechanical parts, reliability is not an issue.
