It allows you to buy or lease your new Mazda model entirely online and have it shipped straight to your home.
Not sure whether you should buy or lease? Here are some of the pros of each:
Buying a new Mazda model
The biggest benefit of buying a Mazda model is that it is yours to keep as long as you want. While you must pay the full price of the vehicle (including a large down payment and then monthly payments over a set number of years), you can continue to drive it payment-free after it’s paid off, for as long as you’d like. You can also make money off the vehicle by eventually selling it or trading it in. Just be aware that the longer you keep a vehicle, the more you can expect to pay in repair and maintenance costs.
When you buy, you also don’t need to worry about mileage restrictions as you do with leasing. Further, you are free to make aftermarket changes to the vehicle.
Leasing a new Mazda model
Many younger drivers prefer to lease because it means lower monthly payments (ideal when facing student loans) and gives them flexibility to upgrade to something new every few years. Because you are not purchasing the vehicle but only “renting” it for a set number of years, you only pay a portion of the vehicle’s cost via small monthly payments.
Leasing also means you don’t need to worry about expensive repairs as the vehicle is covered by a warranty. And at the end of your lease, you can move on to a newer vehicle, meaning you always have the latest technologies.
