IRVINE,
Calif., April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Mazda
North American Operations is pleased to announce that the Mazda
CX-90 PHEV has been honored as the 2025 Best Plug-In Hybrid SUV by
U.S. News & World Report—an esteemed accolade within the annual
Best Hybrid and Electric Car Awards program.
"These awards recognize efficiency, but the vehicles also have
to be excellent all around. The CX-90 PHEV gives you all of the
style, family-friendliness and economy of the gas-only version,
plus 26 miles of electric range and a little more off-the-line
pep," says Alex Kwanten, managing editor of Autos for U.S. News
& World Report. "Plus, unlike some other plug-in hybrids, it
drives quite well in pure EV mode."
Mazda's commitment to engineering excellence is on full display
in the CX-90 PHEV; delivering an optimal blend of quality,
efficiency, and value. The vehicle combines an electrified
powertrain with innovative design and advanced technologies that
consistently elevate driving performance. It offers the dynamic
flexibility to operate solely on electric power or seamlessly
transition to a combined gasoline-electric mode, ensuring both
remarkable efficiency and robust acceleration when needed. This
impressive balance of power and efficiency not only contributes to
its superior EPA fuel economy figures but also reinforces Mazda's
reputation for delivering sophisticated performance without
compromising on driving enjoyment or everyday usability.
"Mazda's focus has always been on engineering vehicles that are
safe and efficient, while not sacrificing the joy of driving. With
the CX-90 PHEV, we've struck a strong balance between performance
and value, and this recognition by U.S. News & World Report is
both an honor and an affirmation of our efforts," said MNAO
President and CEO Tom Donnelly. "We
sincerely thank them for this award and remain dedicated to
delivering innovation that meets our customers' needs."
