2018 cx-9 tpms

:
2018 CX9 GT Titanium Flash, had 2009 CX9 GT Copper Red Mica
Went to the dealer today and on the Canadian 2018 CX-9 I noticed they are using Tire Pressure monitors in each wheel instead of the in-direct method that used the ABS sensors.

Does anyone know why they changed to individual monitors? Other that making money on customers who want to have the system operable with seperate winter tires/rims.

As far as I can tell with the new style you still can't see the Pressure at each wheel on a display, unlike other manufactures that can display the pressure at each wheel( eg. Honda and Nissan).

One one of the reasons I was proud of Mazda for sticking to that system. Always stuck to fellow Pilot owners that had to buy a set for their winters.
