What are the differences between the 2025 CX-90 PHEV and CX-90 MHEV in Canada?
The 2025 CX-90 PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid) integrates a rechargeable 17.8 kWh battery offering approximately 67 km of pure electric range — ideal for Canadian commuters covering less than 60 km per day, meaning most Greater Toronto or Greater Montreal suburban residents return home in electric mode. The PHEV is eligible for the federal $5,000 CAD iZEV credit and the additional $4,000 CAD rebate offered in Quebec through the Roulez vert program — total potential savings of up to $9,000 CAD. The CX-90 PHEV sells for approximately $6,000 CAD more than the equivalent MHEV; it pays back via fuel savings in 5 to 7 years for a driver with home charging. The PHEV system produces a combined 323 hp vs. 191 or 340 hp for MHEV variants — a clearly superior performance level. The MHEV is better suited to owners without residential charging access.
