Is leasing a Mazda CX-70 a good deal?

Is anyone here leasing a Mazda CX-70? I called a dealer to get some numbers, and they provided the following details:

2025 MAZDA CX-70
3.3 TURBO PREMIUM PLUS AWD

$50,950 MSRP

$670 per month for 36 months with no money down - 12k miles per year

Residual value is 29.5.

I haven’t negotiated yet but I’m curious what others are paying.

Thanks!

I’m paying $575 for the PHEV Premium Plus with no money down. It’s a 10k miles per year lease for 36 months. I have the same color combination you mentioned: white with red interior.

That sounds similar to my deal once I negotiate. I heard the PHEV might still have a $7,500 rebate, which would help a lot with leasing. I’m not interested in an electric vehicle, but good luck with yours!

It’s a hybrid, not a pure electric vehicle.

Yes, I understand.

Why not choose a hybrid?

Electric vehicles have more power and torque, faster throttle response, and fewer moving parts, which means less maintenance. No oil changes, no transmission flushes, and the brakes last longer thanks to regenerative braking.

I know some people need a hybrid instead of a pure electric vehicle, and that’s fine. But overall, electric vehicles have lower ownership costs and higher reliability compared to gas engines. Most people who don’t like them haven’t tried driving one.

Wow, nearly $51k for a Mazda. I remember when Jaguar F-Pace was around $43k new. Times have changed.

Funny you mention that. When I got my first real job, I told my wife I would buy her an F-Pace one day. Looks like I didn’t follow through.

She drives a CX-5 :sweat_smile:

They definitely have my friend. I read that someone paid $40k out the door for a Honda Accord… crazy.

It’s not that crazy when the top trim of the Accord Touring Hybrid has an MSRP of $41k before taxes and fees. The CX-70/90 top trim is around $60k.

Where can you get a new 350f for $40k?

Mazda’s premium now.

You need to specify if it’s ‘no money down’ or ‘no money out of pocket.’

‘No money down’ usually means you’re not putting extra money towards the car’s principal. But you’ll still have to pay taxes and fees, which could be thousands.

‘No money out of pocket’ usually means you’re paying the first payment and driving away.

It’s ‘no money out of pocket.’

So they are including the fees in the loan?

Yes.

Dealers love people who lease because only about 5% of them know what they’re doing. Cha-Ching!

Dealers and lenders love leases because they make money from the extra costs. It’s similar with banks and loans.

People understand simple loans, but not automotive leasing. The person who posted this doesn’t list a money factor, probably wasn’t given one. Would you take out a loan without knowing the interest rate? Most dealers, once they know you’re leasing, will adjust the monthly payment by changing the out-the-door price and the money factor. I bet the person who posted this doesn’t know either.
