I emailed ATS Design and they replied that they are looking into one for CX-9.
Look at their Custon/X-Treme (II) series here.

dont see how those would work since the CX9 doors go all the way to the bottom. There is no rocker panel.

Why side step/tube?
For small kids and older folks, CX-9 is still a bit high for them
to get into.
I have been trying to find some sort of side-step from MAZDA.
I sent them a couple of e-mails. They kept saying that it is
"under consideration". Well, they better think fast!

I could see the use of tubular step bars as both an aid for my 5 year old and a deterrent for others to let their doors swing open. I always take great care when opening a car door next to a vehicle with big metal pontoons. They probably wouldn't look very good to me on a CX-9 though.

Side step/tube/Nerf bar seems to be a standard accessory for CX9 in Canada, but not in US. If you go to mazda.ca website, they list side step/tube as accessory for CX9 (with a small picture). So far I have only found the following US sites selling side step/running board for CX9. They don't have pictures to show
erzperformance.com
wooddashexperts.com (made by blackhorseoffroad.com)
runningboardwarehouse.com
(search mazda cx9 on their sites).

If you look carefully, they use pictures of CX7, not CX9.
So far, I haven't found any pictures of CX9 with side step installed. I would love to see how low it gets since the doors extend very low unless the lower cladding is removed.

cccx9, can you suggest other means to help 75+ year-old people to get in and out of the "crossover"? Maybe once you get old, you will understand the difficulty.
Some people like me do have elderly parents living with us several months a year.
My youngest is 7 year-old. He certainly has no issue getting in and out of CX9.

My 83 year old mother can get into ours just fine. I'd be more concerned about her slipping off of a slick nerf step trying to get a foothold on it because it's partially tucked under the car.
Maybe a slide out step that attaches to the door, instead.

Actually, she has joint and foot problems. My point is that I'm not understanding the exact difficulty people have getting into this relatively low car. It's not like a Forerunner.
