On March 26, 2025, a 25% tariff on imported passenger vehicles and auto parts was announced. These tariffs have impacted almost every vehicle manufacturer, including Mazda, who has plants in Japan, Mexico, and the US. While some parts of the car industry tariffs have come into effect, others are still to come. Today, your Silver Spring Mazda dealership will help you better understand what the tariffs mean for you. How Car Industry Tariffs are Impacting Your Next Mazda Purchase from Your Silver Spring Mazda Dealership Understanding Tariffs and Their Impact on Mazda Vehicles Tariffs are taxes applied to good imported into the country. The reasoning behind their implementation is to boost domestic production and consumption, which can positively influence the economy. While the importers themselves are responsible for the taxes, they typically make up for the added costs by raising the prices of their goods, making them more expensive for consumers. Currently, all Mazda vehicles imported from Japan and Mexico are subject to a 25% tariff. This is likely to cause price increases ranging from $2,000 to $20,000 depending on the vehicle. Beginning in May, key auto parts such as engines, transmissions, and electrical components will also be subject to a 25% tariff, which is likely to increase maintenance costs. more Non-Tariffed Vehicles and Parts Not every vehicle or auto part associated with Mazda is subject to the tariffs. Because of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), the US content of USMCA-compliant parts imported into the country from Mexico for use in vehicle assembly are exempt from tariffs. However, because every vehicle contains thousands of parts, it is very likely that almost every vehicle's price will be affected by the tariffs, even if it is produced in the United States. Mazda's US manufacturing plant is located in Alabama, where it produces the CX-50. However, Mazda recently announced that its production would be suspended indefinitely. This is likely to influence the pricing and distribution of this model in the near future. Tips for Buyers With so much uncertainty surrounding tariffs and their impact on the auto industry, it can be hard to know what to do as a consumer. We currently have many vehicles in stock that have pre-tariff pricing, and we recommend that you take advantage of these prices while you can, as it is not certain when they will change. We also recommend taking advantage of special offers and discounts while they are available. The new 25% auto tariffs can be difficult to understand and navigate. Given that Mazda imports almost all of its vehicles and parts, they are heavily impacted by the tariffs. How they and other vehicle manufacturers respond will continue to unfold as time progresses. Contact Koons Mazda Silver Spring in Silver Spring, MD for more information about the impact of tariffs.

Both Certified Pre-Owned cars and used cars are types of used vehicles. While both are cheaper than new vehicles, Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles offer additional assurances, warranties, and perks that can't be found in a standard used vehicle. If you're looking for used cars in Silver Spring, MD, keep reading, as today, your local Mazda dealership will help you understand what type of used vehicle is right for your next purchase. What Is the Difference Between Certified Pre-Owned and Used? A used vehicle is simply that: a vehicle that has been used by a previous owner. The unfortunate downside of buying a used vehicle is that you sometimes take a gamble when it comes to vehicle quality. Perhaps there's some pre-existing damage or components that will soon need to be replaced. A Certified-Pre Owned vehicle is also a used vehicle, but one that has been thoroughly inspected and reconditioned into perfect working order by genuine Mazda technicians. For a Mazda to become Certified Pre-Owned, it must be six years old or newer and have less than 80,000 miles. It also needs to have a clean vehicle history report. If these criteria are met, the vehicle then undergoes a 160-point detailed inspection, examining all aspects of the engine, transmission, brakes, interior, exterior, and wiring, and replacing or repairing them if needed to meet our high-quality standard. more What are the Benefits of Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles? Our Certified Pre-Owned Mazdas come with numerous extended warranties and benefits that are comparable to buying a new car. Your vehicle will remain covered under any remaining time left in the 3-year/36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty before gaining another 12 months or 12,000 miles of coverage with no deductible on covered repairs. You also get a 7-year/100,000-mile CPO Limited Powertrain Warranty. Our CPO vehicles are eligible for 24/7 Roadside Assistance for the duration of the powertrain warranty. That means you get complimentary access to jump starts, lockout assistance, flat tire changes, towing, and gas delivery. CPO vehicles also come with a three-month subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio with over 150 channels. CPO Special Offers If you're currently in college, or are a recent graduate within the last 2 years, you may be eligible for competitive APRs and lease terms on a Certified Pre-Owned Mazda. We also have 0.9% APR offers for 60 months for well-qualified buyers who finance a 2024 or 2025 CPO Mazda CX-90 or CX-70. Both used and CPO cars have strong appeal due to their lower costs. If cost is the sole determining factor in your vehicle decision, a used car may be the way to go. However, if you want the peace of mind that comes with a used vehicle that has been held to high-quality standards, buying Certified Pre-Owned is your best bet. Contact Koons Maza Silver Spring in Silver Spring, MD to get help with finding the vehicle that is right for you.

i-Activsense is Mazda's innovative technology that works continually to keep you and your passengers safe. It uses long, medium, and short-range radar, sonar sensors, and cameras to warn of dangers on the road. As your Mazda dealership in Silver Spring, MD, we want to tell you about some standard and available safety features you can have in your Mazda. Driver Monitoring System This system helps protect you against becoming tired or distracted. This can easily happen, particularly if you're driving long distances or on a familiar route, making an accident more likely. Infrared sensors and dedicated interior cameras monitor your head and eye positions and track your steering pattern. Narrowed eyes, a slumped seating position, or your head not facing forward are some signs that will trigger alerts. You will receive audio and visual alerts to focus on the road ahead. If the system detects continued signs of distraction or tiredness, you'll receive warning advice to pull over and get some rest. Driver Monitoring is available for most Mazda models. more Automatic High Beams During darkness or other low visibility conditions, high beams can help prevent accidents by allowing you to see the road ahead. Unfortunately, it can also cause accidents in certain situations as the beam's direct angle can blind drivers ahead of you or headed in your direction. You can easily switch to low beams, but this means taking your eyes off the road for several seconds and risking a collision. This feature prevents all these problems. It uses light-sensitive sensors that will identify vehicle rear lights of approaching headlights. The system automatically switches to low beams if a light source is detected. Once the light source disappears, your lights revert to high beams. Lane-Departure Warning (LDW) This system uses a forward-facing camera to scan the road surface for lane line markings.

You receive visual and audio alerts to draw your attention and prevent a potential accident. This feature is standard on all Mazda models. Intersection Turn Assistance (ITA) This feature is available on many Mazda models and helps you safely negotiate busy intersections. It uses cameras and radar to identify cyclists, vehicles, or pedestrians you might not have seen and warn you of their presence so you can avoid an accident.

If you'd like to know more about them or any other safety systems, contact us today at Koons Mazda Silver Spring in Silver Spring, MD.

Most modern Americans need a car to get to work every day, run errands, manage childcare, and more. The biggest hurdle to overcome when purchasing a vehicle essential to modern living is financing your new vehicle. Fortunately, your local Mazda dealership in Silver Spring, MD has several financing options so you can drive a new car without straining your budget. 1. Diverse Financing Options The number one reason to finance your new vehicle through your dealership's finance department is the variety of finance deals available to you. Your dealership can create a finance deal centered on a Mazda lease or an auto loan, which originates either through Mazda's finance arm or a local lender. If you aren't sure what financing method is right for you, a Mazda finance expert can help you decide based on your budget, credit history, estimated payment, and more. In general, you may want to lease your Mazda vehicle if you have a tighter budget, since a monthly vehicle lease is less expensive than the payment for a monthly auto loan. Leasing your car also means fewer vehicle costs and fewer upfront costs overall. However, when you purchase your vehicle with an auto loan, you don't need to worry about mileage limitations or wear and tear fees, so this might be a better option if you have long-term car ownership in mind. more 2. Fast Pre-Approval Getting pre-approved for an auto loan is the first step to understanding how much car you can afford. You can submit a loan pre-approval application at your dealership's website and usually hear back within a few days. Once you know how much you are approved for, you can start shopping within your budget or adjust how much you need to save for a down payment. Online loan pre-approval is also much more convenient than visiting a bank. 3. Incentives and Deals You may want to finance a new car through your dealership because of dealership or manufacturer-sponsored deals and incentives. Certain drivers may qualify for 0% APR incentives for purchasing specific Mazda models, which means you can save a lot of money on a new vehicle lease or auto loan since your monthly payments won't go toward interest for several months. You can also strike a deal with a trade-in valuation on your old car, which can knock hundreds of dollars off the sticker price for your new model. Some drivers use a trade-in valuation instead of saving up for a down payment, but you can also use the value of your trade-in to pay for upfront costs when you lease a vehicle. Dealership financing is a convenient way to hammer out an affordable monthly payment, whether you intend to lease or buy a vehicle. Talk to the finance team at Koons Mazda Silver Spring in Silver Spring, MD about your finance options today.
