The 2025 Mazda CX-90 boasts a cutting-edge e-SKYACTIV®-G 3.3L Turbo Inline 6 engine, paired with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system, generating 280 horsepower in its standard configuration. It also has an available upgraded version of this engine, producing a remarkable 340 horsepower. In comparison, the Kia Telluride is powered by a 3.8L V6 engine that provides 291 horsepower. While the latter’s horsepower is slightly higher in the base trim, the CX-90 offers superior performance in the available 340-hp configuration.
Moreover, the CX-90 features i-ACTIV AWD® as standard, providing enhanced traction and control in various driving conditions. The Telluride only offers all-wheel drive as an optional upgrade, giving the CX-90 an edge in standard drivetrain capabilities.
The 2025 Mazda CX-90 and Kia Telluride both offer maximum seating for up to eight passengers, making them ideal for families and group travel. However, the CX-90 interior is designed with a focus on luxury and refinement, incorporating high-quality materials and a sophisticated layout. While the Telluride provides a comfortable cabin, it doesn’t quite match the premium feel of the CX-90.
Lastly, the 2025 Mazda CX-90 has a higher starting price than its rival, but its superior performance capabilities, standard all-wheel drive, and premium features more than justify the price gap. For those seeking value in the form of performance and luxury, the CX-90 is the clear winner.
