$423 a month, 24/12 with $2300 DAS with a $7500 rebate from Mazda. If you qualify for loyalty, add another $500 to the incentives.
Snagged one of the CX-90 deals in NY (CT resident, taxes in link reflect my rate) thanks to the strong rebate this month. Preferred trims are the best value but my wife insisted on red and the only unit nearby was a Premium. In any case, a deal in line with the averages…not a $400 unicorn but sub $500 a month makes me a happy hackr.
Congrats ! Probably one of the only good lease deals on a 3 row currently.
How does this drive? Specially when you’re out of electric. I question if this feels sputtered/laggy without the hybrid system similar to the 4xe.
It does seem to hang on the gears a bit but I am not finding the drive to be sputtery. I’m taking a 5 hour road trip with two toddlers this weekend, the ultimate test, so I can report back, haha
The red looks sharp! Congrats dude!
Love the color but I could also benefit from a second row bench. Decisions, decisions…
Taxes were done wrong by the dealer, the monthly has been updated to $423 a month based on my new contract 
I’d like get in to the same car, do you mind sharing dealer/LH broker details?
Man I really wish they had this deal in SoCal but it seems all these $400’s deals on the CX-90 PHEV are all in the northeast. 
Dealers start talking about $600s in northeast 
Underpowered but nothing close to that deal right now. I got roughly 450 miles in 18.5g tank with 3 charges a week.
100% dealwise, similar cars has tag with 200+. I don’t know what you mean by 3 charges a week. You can’t charge this more than 3 times a week?
I meant 3 battery charges, and 1 full tank give you roughly 450 miles
It’s has the small 4 cylinder without the turbo - base cx-5 engine I think
Would be a great setup if it had the CX-9 turbo 4 with the battery - that cx-9 turbo was pretty good
If you don’t charge this you’re gonna be hearing the engine wheeze
Good on you for getting that discount. It’s like pulling teeth out here in Texas to find a dealer who will give me an offer at even MSRP. Most of them are showing me sheets with a $600 protection package or $995 tint and nitrogen or $900 wheel locks or—this was my favorite—a $350 five-year oil change package for a 3-year PHEV lease.
Going rate on a 33/15k lease in a 500 mile radius (Texas is big, y’all, and I even ventured into eastern Louisiana) for the Premium models (sticker around $54,500) is consistently coming back in the mid-high $700s with $0 down. I’ve got one or two that are finally playing ball right around $700 (representing about a 4% discount after a dealer tint), but even that is only sounding like a deal because I’ve been staring at much higher offers all week. One guy put his foot down over and over at $865 a month! For a Mazda with $8000 of manufacturer rebates!
There’s not even high demand. Not one of the cars I’ve asked about in the past 2 weeks has been sold. Some sites suggest that some of the units have been on the lot for more than 2 months. I don’t get where the stubbornness is justified with these folks. Just sell me a damn car.
I shopped mine out of state to get the best deal. Much easier said than done for me in New England than for you in TX but that might be your best bet, go further and even be open to shipping. It really depends on the dealer and their business, I found that a lot of my local ones were too small to play the volume game and give big discounts so I had to go to busier markets in NY and NJ with more competition and willingness to discount.
FWIW 24 months is really the sweet spot on this lease. A Preferred is 73% on 24/15 vs 61% on 36/15. That’s a big drop you reabsorb in the lease despite the discount.
That’s a good tip on the 24 month term. Big problem here in Texas is we pay sales tax on the full price of the car, regardless of lease duration. So it’s better to spread that out over more months and get more use out of it. I was just comparing 33 months to 36, which is 62% vs 58%, but I’ll do the math for 24, too. If it’s 73% here, then it seems like that may still be the way to go.
I have returned to report that the residual for 24 months is 70% for me vs. 62% @ 33 months, which makes the monthly about $3 less and the effectively monthly exactly the same. 73% would indeed have been a better deal.
Seems like 24 months @ 12k miles does have a slight advantage over 33, though. If only I could convince my wife to drive less.
Find a Mazda dealer who has tax credits.
I’d rather die than pay full sales tax of the vehicle on a lease.
This is the correct solution, not spreading out the full tax over a longer term.
Believe me, I’m trying. A few have told me they have credits to offer on the gas CX-90 but not the PHEV, justified by the fed rebate passthrough. 
But if I wanted a $50k 3-row SUV with mid-20s MPG, I’ve got other options.
