LaFontaine Automotive Group is thrilled to join the vibrant Kalamazoo community. As a Michigan-based, family-owned business with nearly 50 years of experience in the automotive industry, we are committed to building lasting relationships with our customers, offering top-quality vehicles, and making a positive impact in the communities we serve. Our expansion to Kalamazoo with LaFontaine Mercedes-Benz Kalamazoo, LaFontaine Mazda Kalamazoo and LaFontaine Jeep Kalamazoo reflects our commitment to growth, innovation, and delivering exceptional service.

A Legacy of Excellence

LaFontaine Automotive Group was founded in 1980 by Michael Sr. and Maureen LaFontaine, whose vision was to create an automotive experience centered around personalized service and strong community ties. Today, under the leadership of CEO Ryan LaFontaine, the company has grown to include 54 retail franchises, 10 collision centers, and two massive Wholesale Parts Distribution Centers, making us one of Michigan’s largest and fastest growing dealer groups.

Despite our growth, we remain deeply rooted in our founding values of family, trust, and exceptional customer care.

At LaFontaine, we believe that every customer deserves “The Family Deal,” our promise of personalized service, competitive pricing, and a hassle-free experience. Whether you’re purchasing a new or pre-owned vehicle, leasing, or scheduling service, our team is dedicated to exceeding your expectations at every step. We are proud to offer an extensive selection of vehicles from leading brands, as well as flexible financing options tailored to meet your needs.

Commitment to Community

Community involvement is at the heart of LaFontaine Automotive Group’s philosophy. We believe that businesses have a responsibility to give back and uplift the communities they call home. As we continue to strengthen our presence in Kalamazoo, we are eager to collaborate with local organizations, schools, and charities to support initiatives that enrich lives and create opportunities. One of our guiding principles, inspired by our founder Michael LaFontaine Sr., is: “If you have been blessed in life, it is important to share those blessings with those who are less fortunate.”

Investing in the Future

Our expansion into the Kalamazoo market represents an exciting opportunity to connect with new customers and showcase our commitment to excellence. As part of this investment, we will bring state-of-the-art facilities, cutting-edge technology, and a team of dedicated professionals who share our passion for delivering unparalleled service.
