More Awards for Mazda6 Mazda recently announced that the 2017 Mazda6 has won a New York Daily News automotive award for the second year in a row. Mazda6 is only one of four repeat winners from last year. This is awesome news! “In each category, these awards reflect the best choices for consumers based on practical considerations and our experience driving them,” said New York Daily News Autos Editor Christian Wardlaw. “The goal is to provide people with smart, practical, enjoyable and emotionally appealing choices across a broad spectrum of vehicles while rewarding automakers for value, innovation, design and dynamism.” Upscale Interior With its upscale interior, seductive KODO—Soul of Motion design and driving dynamics more comparable to premium sports sedans than most midsizers, the 2017 Mazda6 seamlessly blends the needs of a family with the wants of drivers who crave driving a truly satisfying car. Mazda6’s standout IIHS and NHTSA safety scores and its miserly fuel-efficiency, thanks to SKYACTIV™ Technology, further bolsters its place ahead of its competition. For This Year For 2017, Mazda6 added exclusive—and standard—G-Vectoring Control. This uses the engine in conjunction with steering to help deliver a more surefooted driving experience. Adding to the experience are increased sound-absorption materials throughout the interior. There's also an available premium package that endows Mazda6 with piped Nappa leather seating surfaces and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel and rear seat. The Mazda6 carries a starting MSRP of just $21,945. New York Daily News Autos staff members and contributing writers considered all 2017 model year vehicles. The vehicles also had to have a base price of less than $100,000. The vehicles needed to be on sale and available to consumers by February 1, 2017.

Another Award from Popular Mechanics Any automaker can build a midsize sedan or a two-seat sports car, but only Mazda can deliver both vehicles with the verve that can enthrall the everyday driver as much as the ardent enthusiast. That’s why both the 2017 Mazda6 midsize sedan and Mazda MX-5 Miata RF retractable fastback roadster have been awarded with Popular Mechanics 2017 Automotive Excellence awards. Segment Standouts Standouts in their segments, Mazda’s two representatives were chosen among every vehicle in their respective categories. The midsize Mazda6 was further fortified for the 2017 model year with greater refinement. This included additional sound suppression measures like acoustic glass and tighter door seals. Those are details one may never notice visually but certainly will aurally. However, the driver and passengers will be able to see the addition of available Nappa leather seating surfaces. They feel the heated steering wheel and rear heated seating elements as well as attention to detail that sets Mazda6 apart. G-Vectoring Control The driver and passengers will also feel the addition of standard G-Vectoring Control. This is a Mazda-exclusive technology that uses the engine to control chassis dynamics. It does this by shifting an imperceptibly small amount of weight to the front tires. The results speak for themselves. The drive is smoother and more accurate steering inputs and more controlled ride, leading to greater passenger comfort. Jinba Ittai The 2017 MX-5 RF joins its sedan sibling with concept-car looks that wowed show-goers when it debuted at last year’s New York International Auto Show. A svelte 2,445 lbs., MX-5 RF is among the lightest cars on sale in the U.S., embodying Mazda’s Jinba Ittai —horse and rider as one—steering and handling philosophy. With a power hardtop that takes just 13 seconds to go up or down, MX-5 RF presents a new, elegant take on the time-tested, best-selling roadster. Beach Mazda can help you!

Another Awesome Award! Did you know the CX-9 recently won a spot on the prestigious list of Wards 10 Best Engines Award? Now, Mazda’s designers get to join the engineering team with another accolade of their own. The CX-9 has earned a 2017 Wards 10 Best Interiors award. The Beginning “We designed Mazda CX-9’s interior from the onset with a concept of ‘Smart Indulgence,’ recognizing that there’s a balance between needs and wants,” said Julien Montousse, director of design, Mazda Design Americas, who personally led the design of CX-9’s interior. “Our goal was to maximize both functionality for families and opulence for couples looking for a getaway. “We’re thankful that WardsAuto recognized CX-9 as a ’10 Best Interiors’ winner, as it speaks to the success of our fledgling ‘Mazda Premium’ brand focus and the evolution of our KODO—Soul of Motion design language.” 2nd Generation The second-generation CX-9 went on sale in May 2016. It launched Mazda’s new top-tier Signature trim level. This trim level features LED interior accent lighting and Auburn Nappa leather seating surfaces. It also offers rosewood sourced from premium guitar-maker Fujigen and aluminum trim. While most crossover SUVs see the majority of their sales in mid-tier trim levels, CX-9 buyers have overwhelmingly opted for top-trim CX-9 Grand Touring and Signature models—about 60 percent of model mix. Additionally, CX-9 has brought in new buyers that often come from premium or luxury nameplates. WardsAuto Senior Editor Tom Murphy said customers picking the upper trim levels of the new CX-9 is no surprise. “Our Signature test model arrived fully loaded with the beautiful rosewood and aluminum trim, rich two-tone leather and all the creature comforts we could want, for under $46,000,” Murphy said. “This is the kind of upscale versatility that makes utility vehicles so popular in America.” See the CX-9 interior at Beach Mazda Beach Mazda has a fantastic selection of CX-9s on the lot.

Mazda Motorsports Update Here's some pretty awesome Mazda Motorsports racing news! Thanks to Mazda driver development scholarships, two young men will have the opportunity to race for Cape Motorsports. They will drive Mazda Soul Red cars. It's not often that we get to write about Mazda Motorsports. This is some pretty terrific news! Anthony Martin Anthony Martin, 22, of Kalgoorlie, Australia, makes his Pro Mazda debut this year after a six-win season earned him last year’s USF2000 championship. Martin won the title with Cape, and will stay with the team for the next step of the Mazda Road to Indy ladder. Looks like he's headed to the top! Oliver Askew Oliver Askew, 20, of Jupiter, Fla., began racing karts at age seven. He burst upon the open-wheel racing scene last year being selected for the Team USA Scholarship. He utilized that scholarship in order to finish 2nd in the prestigious Walter Hayes Trophy Grand Finale at Silverstone, England. The Team USA honor also qualified him for the $200,000 Mazda Road to Indy Shootout, a competition among championship-winning drivers from around the world. Askew won the event, thus earning a Mazda scholarship for his first full season in the USF2000 series. Success “The success of the $200,000 Mazda Road to Indy Shoot-out was way beyond our expectations,” said Mazda’s Doonan. “We knew we were breaking new ground by bringing drivers from all over the world and that it would be good… but it turned out to be fantastic. Everyone at Mazda was blown away by it, and especially Oliver. “We’re proud to welcome him to the Mazda family. With the new Tatuus USF-17 chassis debuting, the 2017 season is very much up for grabs, but by choosing to compete with Cape Motorsports, Oliver has put himself in a position for early success. Based on nearly three dozen of the new USF-17 cars being sold, the entire Mazda Road to Indy is in for a real treat in this championship.” “It is a great honor to have both scholarship drivers compete on behalf of Cape Motorsports,” Dominic Cape said. “The support that Mazda gives young drivers is truly remarkable, and we would like to thank Mazda and John Doonan for establishing the scholarship programs. There is nothing quite like this anywhere in the world.” Mazda Motorsports Mazda Motorsports has the most comprehensive auto racing development ladder system of any auto manufacturer in the world. The Mazda Road to 24 program offers a number of scholarships. The Mazda Road to Indy is a similar program that includes Mazda-powered categories of USF2000, Pro Mazda and Indy Lights.

Mazda Drive For Good Wrapping up the fourth year of the Mazda Drive for Good program, Mazda North American Operations recently announced it will donate more than $5.4 million to select charities across the United States in 2017, as a result of money raised during the 2016 Mazda Drive for Good® event. Mazda's Pledge In addition to the monetary donation, Mazda employees, dealers and partners across the nation have pledged over 67,500 hours of charitable service in 2017, as a result of vehicle test drives. “Being an active member in the community is an important aspect of who we are as a company and what the Mazda Drive for Good program stands for,” said Masahiro Moro, president and CEO of MNAO. “Because of this, we are proud to not only support our national and local charity partners through donations, but to also provide extra hands to the local organizations that make a difference in their community each and every day.” Since its inception in 2012, Mazda Drive for Good has donated more than $18.4 million. Mazda employees, dealers and partners deliver nearly 263,000 hours of charitable service. Charitable Event The 2016 Mazda Drive for Good charitable event took place November 21, 2016 through January 3, 2017. For every new Mazda vehicle purchased or leased during that time, Mazda donated $150 to one of four national, or 42 local, charities. This ultimately allowed the customer to choose where the money was directed. In addition to the monetary donation, Mazda pledged one hour of charitable service for every test drive of a new Mazda vehicle. Over the last four years, Mazda has partnered with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, American Red Cross, American Heart Association and Mazda Foundation. This is on a national level which allows Mazda Dealer Marketing Groups across the country to partner with additional nonprofits. This makes an impact in our own community. Commitment Through the Mazda Drive for Good program, Mazda employees and dealers remain committed to being active members in their localities. This doesn't happen just once a year. Follow the conversation at #MazdaDrive4Good or MazdaUSA.com/Drive4Good. Beach Mazda is pleased to participate in these charitable activities as well. We have been sponsors of quite a few events for the the American Heart Association. The Heart Walk in the fall is just one of them.

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! 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. 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. Power and performance delivered in abundance! Let Beach Mazda help you You know what? The best way to learn about the new 2017 Mazda 6 it to come see and feel one for yourself.
