About Mazda's i-ACTIVSENSE:
James from Hawk Mazda talks about i-ACTIVSENSE. i-ACTIVSENSE is a full umbrella suite of different safety features to help keep you and your family safe while driving. One of those features is a Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist. If it senses you drifting, it will alert you and nudge you back to the center of the lane. i-ACTIVSENSE also notifies you if someone is in your blind spot and if there is rear cross traffic.
Come see these features in person at Hawk Mazda of Joliet!
Is It Better To Lease or Purchase?
We often get asked whether it’s better to lease or buy. However, this often depends on the situation.
The benefits of leasing include:
- More car for less payment
- You’re almost always in warranty
- At the end of your lease, you can turn it in, trade it, sell it, or keep it
