Eight Mazda6 and CX-5 petrol models have been added to the Motability scheme.

The automatic MX-5 2.0i Powershift has also been added to the Mazda Motability campaign.

As well as introducing several new models to the Mazda Motability campaign this quarter, meaning at least two derivatives of every Mazda model are now available, Mazda is continuing its offers across the range.

These include compelling NIL Advance Payment offers as well as a reduction in Advance Payments on both the Mazda3 Tamura and Venture diesels (now available from £799) and both seven-seat Mazda5 Venture MPV models (now available from £1,799) – until September 30.

Mazda Head of Fleet Steve Tomlinson, responsible for the Mazda Motability programme, said: “Our upgraded Motability campaign for the summer months offers such great customer benefits that I’m confident they will be extremely attractive to both existing and new customers eligible for the Motability scheme.

“In addition, the broader choice of models available – including automatic versions of the Mazda2, Mazda3, Mazda6 and MX 5 – will draw many Motability customers to the Mazda brand for the first time.”

Full benefits of the Motability scheme include three years insurance, servicing, maintenance and road fund licence, plus full RAC breakdown assistance.
