Before you can drive away in your new or pre-owned Mazda, you--like millions of other drivers per year--probably need to set up financing for an auto loan or a lease. While paying in cash is pretty tempting, it's just not feasible for a lot of the shoppers that visit us.

That's why we offer a variety of Mazda financing options to help you get into the vehicle you want, with the payments and rates that you need.

How can you tell which path to credit approval that you should take? We've broken it down for you here…

And no, it won't cost you three payments of $19.99 and show up on Target shelves in a few months.

It's actually oil changes.

Routine oil changes for your Mazda are the best way to extend the life of the entire engine, increase your fuel economy, prevent engine damage or corrosion, and even improve your ride quality.

Not sure why everyone makes such a big deal about some viscous fluid? Check out this quick video to see exactly what engine oil is responsible for--and how it's one of the most important parts of your car's…

Back-to-school season is a fun time of year--especially for parents.

With great deals on auto service and car detailing, we can do the dirty work to get the sights, smells, and residual messes of summer out of your upholstery so you can welcome in fall the right way.

Take breaks: just because you don't feel tired or distracted doesn't mean that you aren't; be sure to take a break every few hours or few hundred miles to get out of the car and walk around. Stretch your muscles, get your heart rate up with some jumping jacks, and grab a snack. If you feel tired after your break, it's time to…

With exceptional lease deals in Wellesley, more and more drivers are choosing to drive a brand-new sedan, hatchback, or crossover for less. And while leasing is a fairly carefree endeavor, you still need to think long and hard about your lease-end options when your term comes to a close.

Whether you've been leasing a new car for 24 months, 36 months, or 42 months, your end-of-lease options remain largely the same:

"I could wax on lyrically for hours—no, days—scratch that, the remainder of my life—on how good the Mazda MX-5 is. I want to say that there are no substitutes and after reading a few first drive reviews on the Fiat 124 Spider from my colleagues, I will make the statement: there are no substitutes to the Mazda MX-5 Miata."

It's true.

While there are plenty of new and old competitors near Newton and Boston for the Mazda MX-5 Miata, including the little Fiat referenced above, many industry experts argue that there really is no substitute.

While other all-wheel-drive SUVs in Wellesley are reacting to situations on the road, new Mazda models are already acting.

This proactive approach, thinking ahead before your tires lose grip, is all thanks to i-ACTIV AWD--an innovative system developed specifically to work with the lighter-weight, well-balanced, and fun-to-drive new crossover SUVs. And the effectiveness of i-ACTIVE AWD is all thanks to the engineers who pour hours and hours into optimizing and perfecting these exquisite performance systems.

Watch the video below to see how all-wheel drive is tested.

Behold: the 2016 Mazda CX-9.

What sets the new SUV apart from its competitors--or even its last generation?

It's lighter, it's more aerodynamic, it's more luxurious, it's more powerful, and it looks unlike anything else you can get today in Wellesley.

And that's just the beginning.

With four trim levels, including an all-new Signature trim, the Mazda CX-9 gives you more opportunity to customize your drive.

• World Car Design of the Year
• World Car of the Year

The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata has been raking in the awards lately.

But the two big ones are the major accolades from the World Car Awards just a few weeks ago. Jurors, who made the final decision giving the MX-5 Miata the crown, said of the model:

When we think of "green" vehicles, we tend to think of hybrids and all-electric models. However, green really just means "eco-friendly" and, if you ask AutoGuide.com's Craig Cole, he'd tell you that the greenest car around is neither a hybrid nor an EV. It is, in fact, the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata! Thanks to a light weight and a surprisingly high EPA-estimated 36 mpg on the highway with the manual transmission - and a truly captivating and speedy ride - it might just be the best green machine on the road.
