Napleton's Schaumburg Mazda

SkyActiv technology from Mazda is more than just a fuel-efficient engine - it's a holistic approach to building vehicles that rethinks the engine, transmission and chassis. The result is a compact car like the Mazda3 that can get up to 40 mpg on the highway, and a CUV like the CX-5 that can get up to 35 mpg highway. And here's the thing: Mazda's not done just yet - the next step on the...

It was more than 40 years ago now that the Dr. Seuss first reminded us that, "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."¹ And, we're here to say, that automakers like Mazda do care a whole awful lot, and they continue to work towards a more sustainable future of all of us (even the Barbaloots)! How do we know? Well, the Mazda...

For Schaumburg Mazda, we can trace our Mazda love back in time through some pretty fantastic times in car history. But the 1989 MX-5 Miata stands head-and-shoulders above the rest as a timeless classic, which reset the bar for small sports cars - and has captivated us every model year since then. And while we certainly think that the new MX-5 Miata is a wonderful car, we were pretty excited to hear the announcement from the...

We love to see automakers setting high goals for themselves at the beginning of a year or a decade. Many times, that means business is good, and can only get better. The thing is, sometimes, unforeseen tragedies like the early 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, requires a re-examination of previously set goals. Such is the case with many Japanese automakers this year, and Mazda is no exception.

Mazda is well on their way to creating some of the most fuel-efficient traditionally fueled passenger vehicles on the road today. And with the help of i-stop, SkyActiv and Mazda's new Intelligent Energy Loop (i-ELOOP) technology, all upcoming releases from the automaker will be increasingly efficient. The latest, i-ELOOP makes use of a capacitor, a 12-25V variable voltage alternator, electric double layer capacitor and DC/DC converter to capture kinetic energy and then feed…

What could possibly be better than the recently refreshed Mazda3 with SkyActiv technology and an EPA-estimated 27-mpg city/38 mpg highway? How about four completely redesigned new Mazda models in the next two years? That's right, Mazda's Senior VP of U.S. Operations, Robert Davis, recently shared with reporters at Automotive News that we can expect just that.

The automaker unveiled the all-new Mazda CX-5 at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. And now?

When the 2013 Mazda models hit the showroom floor, they'll come with a little extra guidance. Worldwide GPS navigation company TomTom is working with Mazda to provide navigational systems for the MAZDA3 and the forthcoming MAZDA CX-5

Netherlands based TomTom will provide these new models with connections to its navigation solution, enabling dynamic routing based on live traffic updates.

Maybe you remember back in 2000 when Canadian born Jeremy Wotherspoon earned a title in the Guinness Book of World Records for his 500 M. sprint on ice in just 14 minutes and 22 seconds. Well, it looks like Mazda might have taken a cue or two from this record-breaking speed skater. They've opened the 2011 motorsport season on Swedish ice.

That's right, Mazda invited racing enthusiasts to Sweden to participate in the…
