ANOTHER Bay Mazda happy customer driving off in her brand new Mazda 3
Her first Brand new car! Congrats to Kristen Ayotte of Frankford! She is off to Zoom Zoom in her Mazda 3 ! This was a TOTAL Digital Experience for Kristen! Based off baymazda.com! She connected with Scotty Lalonde our Digital Sales Consultant! Great choice Kristen! and beautiful flowers as well! #baymazdabelleville!
Another amazing Bay Mazda customer!
Great way to start off the week! in a brand new Mazda! Doug Brown from Cloyne is off in his brand new Mazda 3! GX with Convenience! This deal was presented by Nick Deroche! WTG Doug!

The secret behind the SKYACTIV body!
IN SETTING OUT TO ENGINEER THE LIGHT AND STIFF VEHICLE STRUCTURE
REQUIRED TO ENSURE THAT THE 2014 MAZDA3 IS EFFICIENT, SAFE AND FUN
TO DRIVE, THE COMPANY LOOKED TO THE SKYACTIV-BODY ARCHITECTURE.
The engineers took the basic body-frame structure of the CX-5 and Mazda6 and optimized it for the size and
performance characteristics of a compact car. In the process, they made comprehensive design changes to
the materials and structural elements in order to meet the conflicting needs for lower weight, better impact
safety, and higher rigidity.
Impressively, while the 2014 Mazda3 is roughly 100lbs (45kg) lighter, it is also significantly stiffer. Torsional
rigidity of the hatchback is improved by 31% and the sedan is 28% stiffer.
In order to accomplish this, the engineers utilized a number of key design approaches:
1. Straight Frame Structure
2. Continuous Frame Structure
3. Optimized cross-sectional shapes
and sizes of frame members
4. Having frame members serve more than one
purpose where possible (e.g. dual brace stiffeners
strengthen the floor of the trunk and also provide
a mounting point for the rear struts)
5. More floor members (positioned more effectively)
However, engineers didn’t just set out to create a lighter, stiffer structure that enhances performance – they
also wanted to create a vehicle that’s safer. In order to realize this important objective, they looked at how
impact loads are handled by the front structure of the vehicle.
To improve crash safety performance, Mazda adopted a multi-load path structure. The structure efficiently
absorbs the load at the time of a crash by dispersing it in multiple directions. For example, impact energy
from a frontal collision is dispersed along three continuous load paths that run from the front frame to the:
1. A-pillar 2. Side of the body 3. B-frame
In particular, the upper branch frame, which diverts the load to the A-pillar, is a multi-functional part that also
works to cancel the upward motion of the front frame. To create this kind of path, parts such as door hinges,
which do not normally play any role in absorbing shock, are important elements in the design. Naturally,
the multi-load path structure is adopted for lateral collisions and rear collisions as well – greatly improving
occupant safety in the process

Discounting..thoughts from the Digital guy coming from Radio!
Discounting! Probably thE #1 thing on everyone's mind when shopping, especially for a car! We should probably get the air cleared right away with Mazda, just by looking at the "Net Invoice" vs the MSRP Invoice! And really there ISN'T that much of a mark up on Mazda's! You have to trust me when I say that! Maybe that's something that Mazda should consider, but I don't think they should because it is such a good product they don't have to show the deep discounts like the other's show! Maybe it's a mind thing for the customer, but when you make a superior product like Mazda does, you shouldn't have to discount. I have bought and sold a lot of things over my years in sales and I can tell you this, there is a big mark up in accessories and services but with the actual product in it's self. NO! Laptops.. NO..TV's NO..Appliances, MEH..Houses..MEH...But again with Mazda's.. not really..The difference with most dealers is in the trade. If you have one and how much are they willing to take a cut out of the profit and that's ultimately what it comes down to..SO folks trust me when I say when it comes to Mazda's especially here at BAY MAZDA in BELLEVILLE, we will explain to you that really, the cars have a little bit of margin in them or gross but not a lot! But we always appreciate people asking, cause I think's it's natural for people to ask, it's built into our DNA to ask for a deal! Bay Mazda is up front and honest with each and every customer! ;) Thanks have a great day!
