Latest *rumor* I've heard is that the 70 will be almost the same size as the 90 but launch in Turbo S trims only with a focus on sport appearance - black wheels, mirrors, grille, etc. Nothing official has been released so we shall see.

From everything I have heard it is sized between the CX5 and the CX90. It’s a two row crossover. I believe it will have the same power train options as the CX90 with the turbo inline six or the 2.5 4 cylinder hybrid. It will have the same interior options as well.
There might be a trim level option that is sporty but lots of speculation on that.

So you don’t mind this mazda over an over priced Toyota Highlighter?
Basically run whatever your choice is going by the country of Mexico’s 0/20 is for CAFE
They really compete at the opposite ends of the same class - if you need to cram every cubic inch of people/cargo into a vehicle, the Highlander is probably your choice. If you want to drive something other than a Maytag washing machine on wheels and can live with some of the space constraints of the CX-90, I feel it is a far better vehicle.
i am not putting 0w20 in mine in summer i can garantee you that and i am in Canada. it will have 5w30 just like my other Mazda vehicles had . and no euro oils. i have the 340hp version. it is called GTP in Canada. there is a Signature trim above. the GTP trim is similar to turbo S premium trim in the US. the Signature trim has facial recognition and i did not like that. but yes the interior is a bit nicer.
the engine is the Mazda 2.2 four cylinder with two more cylinders. What works for the 4 cylinder
will work just fine with the 6. Any good synthetic is a good choice.
My 2¢

Ah yes, the well-known Mazda 2.2L Skyactiv-G (which doesn’t exist).
The inline six also has the timing chain at the rear of the engine, the high pressure fuel pump driven off the timing chain, and that’s probably enough differences to show it ain’t just Mazda’s four with two extra cylinders welded on.
The 2.2 is an older engine dimension wise. Mostly in Miatas. It has, of course, up grades and improvements.
The Skyactiv engines are not related to any of Mazda’s previous engines. And the new sixes are pretty different to the fours.
No miata got a 2.2. Older 626/mx6 did however
You are rolling the dice if you use anything other than API certified 0W-20 oil during your engine warranty period.

The manual calls for 30 weight “except USA, Canada.”
Excellent info

OP, you should log into your Mazda app and go to Help > Contact Mazda > Email (it’ll auto fill your VIN) and just ask them if using 0w/5w-30 will cause warranty issues.
Get it on record what they say. Let’s settle this.

Yeah thats why I stated 0W-20. OP lives in USA, correct?
If a 20 grade and 30 grade are listed as recommendations in the owner’s manual, the only way running a 30 grade oil would cause issues would be if the oil itself were directly responsible for the failure.
Oil changes & other maintenance being documented on time per the OLM or OM recommendations will carry much more weight towards warranty coverage than using a 30 grade when it’s in the manual.
Does that say HPL on it? He asked for what HPL oil to use.
Why no euro oils?
