Chicago Tribune Names Mazda3 One of the Top 10 Underappreciated Cars

Mazda has been very active in the auto industry thanks to its Skyactiv technology and the release of its latest CX-5 mid-size SUV. However, according to the Chicago Tribune, the automaker has been underappreciated for far too long. One of the publication’s favorite vehicles, the Mazda3, has been unfairly overlooked. Our team at Blue Ridge Mazda, a premier Mazda dealership in Lee’s Summit, MO, is happy that our inventory is receiving the recognition it deserves.

The Mazda3 was designed with the award-winning Nagare concept in mind. Features such as the cascading front fascia, exterior flow lines and headlight detailing reflect almost identically the styling behind the Nagare concept.
High-end details such as the available Adaptive Front-lighting System, exceptional LED taillights and High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights offer increased visibility and brighter, wider light. Interior styling also elevates the comfort and class found in the Mazda3.

We feel that one of the vehicle’s best selling points is its economical fuel efficiency. The Mazda3’s 2.0-liter Skyactiv engine, paired with its manual transmission, provides 25 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway. The vehicle also offers optimal power by producing 155 horsepower and 148 lb-ft of torque, all while using 15 percent less fuel.

Our Blue Ridge Mazda team also believes the Mazda3’s safety features set it apart from its competitors. Adaptive front lighting, active front head restraints, standard airbags and the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System keep the most important part of our dealership safe – our drivers and their passengers.

We have consistently served Lee’s Summit with quality Blue Ridge Mazda vehicles. Our vast inventory of new and used Mazdas in Lee’s Summit allows drivers of kinds to purchase vehicles that suit their needs and lifestyles.

Efficiency Makes Small 2012 Mazda2 a Mighty Contender in Lee’s Summit

Mazda has worked diligently through the years to develop interesting, efficient vehicles that never compromise style or performance. The 2012 Mazda2 is no exception for the automaker. The sleek sport coupe is the perfect balance of style, power and efficiency all wrapped up in compact package. Blue Ridge Mazda, a premier Mazda dealer in Lee’s Summit, MO, is proud to offer the 2012 Mazda2.

From first glance the Mazda2 grabs passersby’s attention with sculptural lines and a muscular body shape. Each angle of the vehicle reflects light and begs for attention. A wide, athletic stance displays the power and attitude that is carried through the vehicle from engine to tailpipe. 5-door capability is masked by the sport coupe’s sleep silhouette.

Mazda continues to leverage its ability to offer efficient vehicles, which is why every detail of the Mazda2 must count. Efficiency starts on the outside with the vehicle’s aerodynamic front fascia and body shape. The Mazda2’s curves allow wind to pass over its body, and as a result, the vehicle is able to reach up to 35 miles per gallon on the highway. Already an affordable choice, the Mazda2 becomes an even more economically friendly choice by helping drivers avoid the gas pump more often.

Specifically designed taillights and available rear spoiler also contribute to the Mazda2’s aerodynamic styling. Air is able to flow over the vehicle’s roof, lights and spoiler to reduce drag as well as turbulence. This allows the driver and his or passengers to have a much more quiet ride as well.

The lighter weight, yet powerful 1.5-liter 100-horsepower engine provides unmatched fuel efficiency and an exhilarating ride. Mundane daily tasks become exciting adventures without sacrificing fuel economy.

Blue Ridge Mazda has several new and used Mazdas in Lee’s Summit, MO in stock. The dealership’s inventory is constantly growing to provide quality options for customers in Lee’s Summit.
