Which Mazda is Best for You? | Royal Moore Mazda

Are you ready to get a new vehicle for the Portland, OR, metro area? Then come to Royal Moore Mazda to check out our extensive inventory. Our friendly sales staff are eager to take you on a test ride and help you pick your best car. Here are a few suggestions to get you started.

Convertible Fun

Small, lightweight, and agile, the 2021 Mazda MX-5 gets its inspiration from the classic roadsters of the 1960s but is updated with the sleek philosophy of Kodo design. Its 2.0-liter SKYACTIV®-G four-cylinder with Variable Valve Timing hits 181 horsepower and 151 lb.-ft. of torque. Its 6-speed Sport automatic transmission encourages quick gear changes with paddle shifters. The SKYACTIV®-MT 6-speed manual transmission features a short-throw shifter.

The shift knob, three-spoke steering wheel, and parking brake handle are wrapped in leather. You can upgrade the interior with available upholstery in White Nappa leather. When you have the key fob of the Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry System with you, you don’t have to take the keys out of your pocket to unlock the door. Then sit inside, step on the brake pedal, and run the engine by pressing the Start button.

Refining the Drive

The refined exterior of the 2021 Mazda6 sedan envelopes a powerful 2.5-liter SKYACTIV®-G Turbo four-cylinder with automatic transmission and front-wheel drive that delivers up to 250 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque. To save fuel, Cylinder Deactivation can shut off half the cylinders when they’re not needed. SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS with G-Vectoring Control adjusts the delivery of power during cornering and initial turn-in. The result is a smoother drive that is less tiring.

Upgrade to the Carbon Edition and you get Polymetal Gray paint on the exterior, Black Metallic finish alloy wheels, a Black rear decklid spoiler, Black exterior mirrors, and Red leather seats. To exhilarate your senses, the Signature interior uses premium materials like Ultrasuede on the dash and doors, Japanese Sen wood, and Nappa leather.

Starting Saver

If you’re looking to enter the Mazda line, go for the entry-level 2022 Mazda3 sedan. Its 2.5-liter Turbo engine puts out up to 250 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard. The available i-Activ All-Wheel Drive® maximizes your road grip by constantly sending torque to tires with the best traction. Shining from headlamps and taillights are energy-saving and quick-lighting LEDs.

You can still enjoy such amenities as the bespoke Bose® 12-speaker audio system. Download the MyMazda App and you can remotely lock and unlock doors or start the engine. It also lets you check fuel, tire pressure, and other vehicle conditions. The infotainment system sports an 8.8-inch center display that includes Mazda Connected Services. You can control it by tapping on the dash screen, speaking your commands, or dialing the Multifunction Commander Control.

All for the Family

Your large extended family can finally fit in the same vehicle if you drive the 2021 Mazda CX-9. Its three rows comfortably fit up to seven adults. But you can also fold down the seatbacks of the last two rows to increase cargo capacity from 14.4 to 71.2 cu. ft. Moving you forward is the 2.5-liter SKYACTIV® Dynamic Pressure Turbo four-cylinder and SKYACTIV®-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission with manual-shift and Sport Mode.

Keeping you protected are such driver assists as the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go. It leaves a safe gap between you and the next car by automatically changing speeds as traffic conditions change. Smart Brake Support with Collision Warning tells you if you’re about to hit the car in front and can engage a stop to prevent an accident.

Looking to the Future (2023 MX-30 EV and PHEV)

If you can wait a little, you’ll eventually be the first to drive the Mazda MX-30, which will debut in the spring of 2022. When it reaches Oregon, this nature-friendly engineering wonder will be available in two models.

The 2022 Mazda MX-30 EV (Electric Vehicle) runs on pure electricity up to 100 miles on a full charge. You can also go from a 20 to 80 percent charge in only 36 minutes if you plug into a Level 3 DC Fast Charger. Your SUV comes with a Level 1 120-volt charging cable that plugs into any 120-volt household outlet.

The 2023 Mazda MX-30 PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) couples the long-range and power of a standard gas engine with the emission-free electric motor. The beautiful exterior relies on a pillarless freestyle door system to create a sense of openness.
