I suggest you go to the Mazda web site and download a manual. Also, make sure you aren't mixing numbers. Why do I say that? Because here in the States we use a rating called "AKI" (which is an average of the RON and MON rating of the fuel), whereas most of the rest of the world used simply the RON rating (which is always a higher number than the AKI).

Edit: I just looked it up and Mazda officially calls for Regular fuel for the CX-9.
