When you select a brand-new Mazda model like the Mazda CX-5 or the latest Mazda3, be prepared to take your performance to the next level. This is all thanks to Mazda’s exclusive SKYACTIV™® TECHNOLOGY. With engines, transmissions, and framework all working in unison under this innovative platform, your drive behind the wheel of a Mazda model goes unparalleled. Find out more about what makes this possible with Beach Mazda. Contact Us Engines With two distinct engines on offer as part of the SKYACTIV™® lineup, you’ll certainly find your ideal blend of output and efficiency. The SKYACTIV™®-G gasoline engine, for example, boosts fuel economy figures and torque by around 15% as compared with comparable engines on the market. Meanwhile, the SKYACTIV™®-D diesel engine boasts a 20% improvement in fuel economy as compared with other conventional diesel engines, all while maintaining clean emissions. One thing is for sure – you can’t go wrong with either machine. Transmissions Under the SKYACTIV™® platform, you’ll have your choice of either a manual or automatic transmission, either of which significantly enhance the performance of your new Mazda6 or other Mazda model. The SKYACTIV™®-DRIVE automatic transmission, for example, promises smooth shifts and superior fuel efficiency, even at lower speeds. Plus, it offers more of a direct feel that typically is associated with manual transmissions. If pure manual is more your style, though, Mazda’s SKYACTIV™® TECHNOLOGY still has you covered. The SKYACTIV™®-MT manual transmission that allows you to feel as though you’re behind the wheel of a sports car, yet it also guarantees ultimate control Framework Perhaps the most important aspect of how a vehicle performs depends on how it was constructed. For Mazda, that has meant incorporating SKYACTIV™® TECHNOLOGY in the body and chassis of each model it creates. SKYACTIV™®-BODY, for instance, proves both rigid and light. In fact, its weight has been reduced by 8%, while rigidity improved by 30%, which helps it to move nimbly and also stand strong in the event of a collision. The SKYACTIV™®-CHASSIS works with the body thanks to an electric power steering system for easy handling. Learn More About Innovative Mazda Technology Mazda’s SKYACTIV™® TECHNOLOGY undoubtedly has captured your attention, but the automaker’s commitment to high-tech features goes well beyond performance – extending to safety, in particular.

The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata is on it’s way to United States! In fact, by the time you read this, the 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata may already be here at Beach Mazda! more Best Thrills-Per-Dollar After the success of the 2016 model, and after winning World Car of of the Year and World Car Design of the Year Award, the MX-5 Miata still provides the best thrills-per-dollar ratio of any car out there today. For 2017, the only packaging changes include adding Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear-cross Traffic Alert as standard equipment for MX-5 Miata Club models. These features used to be exclusive to the Grand Touring model. Trim Levels There are three time levels: Sport, Grand Touring and Club. Rather than a “good-better-best” strategy, Mazda has developed three distinct “flavors” of MX-5 Miata to cater to different customers. The fourth generation MX-5 Miata returns for its second model year weighing about 150lbs less than its predecessor. Mazda achieved this feat through their greater use of ultra-high-tensile steel as well as aluminum construction.A testament to Mazda’s “Gram Strategy” and the innovation of SKYACTIV™ Technology, it is approximately 25-percent more efficient than its predecessor in EPA testing. Yet, it’s also quicker and more refined with technologies customers expect in today’s cars. SKYACTIV™-G All North American 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata models come equipped with a quick-revving, 2.0-liter SKYACTIV™-G engine that produces 155 horsepower at 6,000 rpm. It sends power to the rear wheels via a standard six-speed SKYACTIV™-MT six-speed manual—currently accounting for 60 percent of MX-5 sales—or an available six-speed automatic that comes standard with paddle shifters. The approximately 2,300-lbs. roadster embodies Mazda’s “Jinba Ittai” philosophy—translated as horse and rider as one. And, it sets the pace for all of Mazda’s current- and next-generation cars and crossovers. For 2017, it is joined by the MX-5 RF—retractable fastback—which went on sale in November. It imbues MX-5 with coupe-like style and sophistication. Want to take a test drive? Give Beach Mazda a call today. We’ll show you how to get behind the wheel and get one for yourself!

The design of the 2017 Mazda 6 presented a significant problem. When a car is designed to be beautiful, performance is often diminished. Mazda engineers saw this as a challenge to turn an esthetically stunning design into something truly functional. With aerodynamics better than a Lamborghini Aventador and a body design that contributes to both high-speed stability and fuel efficiency, the 2017 Mazda 6 is a living, driving embodiment of perseverance. more Elevated Design Even a vehicle sophisticated as the 2017 Mazda 6, Mazda found unique ways to elevate the design. New for 2017, they added the available Grand Touring Premium Package. Inside, subtle details like ambient overhead console lighting and Nappa leather interior trim add a luxurious touch. Drivers can enjoy a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel. The premium Package also offers a choice between Black or Parchment Nappa leather-trimmed seats that include heated front and rear seats. Active grille shutters improve fuel efficiency by reducing aerodynamic drag. The i-ELOOP regenerative engine braking system improves efficiency in stop-and-go city driving. Total Enhancement Since creating a better driving experience is Mazda’s first priority, they would never design a vehicle that sacrifice performance for fuel efficiency. Instead, they were able to enhance both. The groundbreaking SKYACTIV™ TECHNOLOGY is a holistic system of innovations that takes the entire car into consideration to improve the overall driving performance.

Mazda recently announced that its turbocharged SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T engine has received a 2017 Wards 10 Best Engines award. This engine made its debut in the second-generation Mazda CX-9 midsize crossover SUV. more Everyone knows that Mazda is at the forefront of  automotive technology. Developers are constantly trying to improve their vehicles. Mazda is always trying to advance safety technology and improve fuel efficiency. Generally speaking, they know how to make great vehicles that people absolutely love to drive! This has been proven by the many awards that Mazda vehicles have won over the years. Accordingly, the SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T engine winning this honor is no less impressive. Honored “We’re honored that WardsAuto has recognized our turbocharged SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T, as it serves as validation of our innovation that everything we do is focused on creating value and strong trust with our customers,” said Kelvin Hiraishi, director of engineering, MNAO. “This is who we are, and this principal is here to stay at Mazda.” The SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T offers many Mazda and industry-firsts. This includes its innovative Dynamic Pressure Turbo. The Dynamic Pressure Turbo uses a butterfly valve in the engine’s exhaust to create more pressure through a smaller chamber at low RPM. As a result, its turbocharger can spool up almost instantaneously. This provides up to 310 lb-ft of torque for ample flexibility and performance in any situation. It is also the first time Mazda has turbocharged a gasoline SKYACTIV™ engine. Real-World Performance In the CX-9, engineers focused on real-world performance. They didn't chase horsepower or torque figures. They knew those numbers would be unusable during normal driving. Engineers studied how SUV drivers would drive in the city. They opted for strong off-the-line acceleration in city traffic and linear, controllable operation. “There are lots of powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engines out there, but Mazda’s 2.5-liter turbo stands out by using very elegant engineering to create especially smooth and abundant low-end torque for great everyday V-6-like performance in a sizable crossover SUV,” said WardsAuto Senior Content Director Drew Winter. By replacing a heavy V-6 engine with the SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T in the new-generation CX-9, Mazda was able to eliminate more than 250 lbs. By doing this, they improved EPA-estimated fuel-efficiency by 25% compared with its predecessor. Part of the motivation to rethink how to create the SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T came from the desire to improve real-world figures as well. Mazda developed a cooled exhaust gas re-circulation (EGR) system. Thus, the engine runs at a higher compression ratio. It does this without needing to dump fuel into its cylinders for cooling. That's what commonly known as enrichment. “Most turbocharged gasoline engines use enrichment very early on, leading to fuel economy that rarely meets the EPA-estimated numbers,” said Hiraishi. “While the SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T’s cooled EGR doesn’t improve the catalog fuel economy numbers, it does pay dividends for customers to achieve greater real-world efficiency. That’s what matters”. Beach Mazda Give Beach Mazda a call if you want to learn more about the SKYACTIV™-G 2.5T engine. We can also give you information about any Mazda vehicle on the lot.

The MX-5 Speedster Evolution is lighter and what they describe as “ruthlessly efficient”. The MX-5 RF Kuro is based upon the 2017 MX-5 retractable fastback that’s going on sale in the U.S. early next year. MX-5 Speedster The MX-5 Speedster made its entrance to the automotive world at the 2015 SEMA show. It’s Mazda’s recognition and appreciation of the lightweight and no-frills driving experience of the sports cars of the 1950s. It weighs in at just over 2,000 pounds and its weight reduction thrust its performance and heightened the open-air experience for which the roadster is known. The MX-5 Evolution sharpens Mazda’s performance history. MX-5 RF Kuro Meanwhile, in Mazda’s new concept, the MX-5 RF Kuro, they have adopted many of the technologies that are seen in the MX-5 Global Cup vehicles. However, these are packaged in a more street-focused manner. The MX-5 RF Kuro shares it adjustable suspension with the MX-5 Global racecar. It also shares its Brembo dual-piston front brake calipers. Both vehicles were built using parts that Mazda autocross and racecar drivers can purchase via MazdaMotorsports.com for their MX-5s.

Have you heard of Jinba Ittai? It’s something special, that’s for sure. Keep reading to learn about Jinba Ittai. more Just like the connection of a horse and its rider, so too, should be the connection of a car and its driver. It’s the taking of the reigns, or the steering wheel, and knowing that’s where you need to be. It’s the absolute knowledge that the ride you’re about to take will be the ride of your lifetime. Mazda understands the relationship between man and car. There has to be a connection between the two. If the car isn’t comfortable or if the car isn’t fun to drive, that connection will be missing. The Concept The concept of Jinba Ittai is not new. It has its origins of early Japanese archery called Yabusame. As early as 300 A.D., archers would take their bows, mount their horses for honor, battle or entertainment. Today, Mazda has used the same concept when designing the MX-5 Miata. Designers always kept the idea of oneness in their minds. This is why the MX-5 Miata is so perfect to drive. It feels as though it is a natural extension of your being. “When the car and driver are in perfect harmony,” Kijima said, “driving is fun.” A horse and rider communicate through tactile response. The horse adjusts its gait to allow the archer to release his arrow. Kijima explains that Mazda aimed to create the same relationship between car and driver. Effect on You The MX-5 Miata puts the driver into the best body position to drive the car. Not only does this natural position make the car fun to drive, it also keeps the driver safe. Beach Mazda thinks you should come feel it for yourself. Until you get behind the wheel of a new or used MX-5 Miata, you’ll never fully understand the power behind Jinba Ittai. Give Beach Mazda a call today and we’ll show you how driving matters.

Driving Matters Because Driving Matters to Mazda, even the most obsessive focus on engineering excellence is never enough. more That’s why, after 26 years, our engineers remain passionate about things like the MX-5 Miata’s near perfect  50-50 ratio front-to-rear weight distribution. The quality-obsessed team that imagined and built the latest 2016 MX-5 Miata held fast to one simple philosophy. They preserve and innovate the front-midship engine and rear-wheel drive layout. Sustaining the deep rooted belief that the MX-5 is not perfectly balanced until you, the driver, are literally sitting in the driver’s seat. Mazda knows that the best engineering obeys the laws of physics. Mazda engineers continue to stay true to this principle. They succeed by reducing weight in their vehicles. By doing this, Mazda created a nearly perfect 50-50 balance in the new MX-5 Miata. By using a remarkably sensitive balance, Mazda could put their car to the test. They wanted to learn if all of their hard work had paid off. Unbelievably, the 2,332 pound MX-5 Miata, remained perfectly balanced on the balance beam. This is with the driver planted firmly in the driver's seat. Best Selling Roadster The MX-5 Miata has been the best-selling roadster for years. Throughout the years, the weight of the vehicle has contributed to it’s thrilling driving experience. We'd have to agree! Other multi-generational vehicles in production have become bigger and stagnant. Mazda’s fourth generation MX-5 has remained slim and agile. Mazda included all the safety features and modern conveniences over the evolution of the model. The MX-5 Miata constantly reminds us that multi-generational vehicles do not have to become stuffy and static. The new MX-5 Miata features an aluminum hood and trunk. The front and rear bumpers and front fenders are also aluminum. These help to keep the MX-5 Miata energetic and lighter. This is compared to using other materials. The utilization of SKYACTIV™ technology into this generation of the MX-5 Miata is also a major contributor of increased fuel efficiency. There's also been a decrease in overall vehicle weight. Keeping the MX-5 at a 50-50 ratio weight balance allows the driver to have a smoother and more connected experience only adding to the fundamental freedom the driver has behind the wheel of a Mazda. Why we Love the 50-50 Ratio Beach Mazda knows how exhilarating driving the MX-5 Miata can be. That’s why we love to sell them! We want everyone to see for themselves. Give Beach Mazda a call today so we can show you how to make driving matter to you! We'll get you scheduled for your very own VIP test drive experience. We'll show you all the features of the MX-5 Miata! You'll leave wondering why you waited so long to buy one. Don't hesitate any longer! Contact Beach Mazda today!
