Mazda 6

Overview

Your life is exciting and fast, for 24 hours of every day. And Mazda6 is the perfect partner. Styled to look elegant and refined in every setting. Engineered to deliver genuine grand touring performance. Built to give you total satisfaction in all of life's scenes. It's the ultimate statement of sophisticated driving pleasure. It's Mazda6. And it's waiting for you. “Zoom-Zoom Evolution” ? this expression represents the commitment by every member of the development team to show the world a Zoom-Zoom that is further evolved from the first generation Mazda6. Working from this concept, an all-new Mazda6 fully embodies the progress of Mazda's product development philosophy.

Exterior

Dynamic. Athletic. Elegant. That's the all-new Mazda6. Styled to bring a mature, refined sports sensibility to any situation ? from the urban business scene to long-distance highway travel. No matter where your life takes you, Mazda6 brings you the full enjoyment of Mazda's trademark Zoom-Zoom driving ? driving that speaks directly to your emotions, giving you an immediate bond with the car. Created to blend Mazda's trademark Zoom-Zoom spirit with a unique concept of “cool” that combines playfulness with refinement, Mazda6 brings you a truly exclusive experience. Styling is built on the seemingly contradictory ideas of strength and delicate grace, expressed through the prism of Japanese aesthetics. The result is a design both simple and rich, incorporating dignified tension, natural forms and reflections, and beautiful visual spaces

Interior

Any time, morning or night, Mazda6 invites you to get in, take control, and drive. The sporty cockpit is carefully laid out to be intimate ? with all controls close to the driver's hands ? without feeling cramped in any way. In particular, the dashboard curves away from the occupants to open a large airy space in front. And the Cross Functional-Network (CF-Net) ? an advanced initiative that grew out of Mazda's Human Machine Interface (HMI) concept ? links audio, climate control and display systems with coordinated operation that gives quick, comfortable, intuitive operation. The driving position is refined by measures such as setting the gear shift lever and steering wheel angle to give the driver easier maneuverability for a better sense of oneness with Mazda6. Front seats provide firm support during sporty driving without sacrificing the comfort that's essential for long journeys.

Under the hood

Speeding around on business or getting away on long-distance touring, Mazda6 gives you a driving experience you'll never forget. The engine mated with 5-speed Activematic transmissions delivers the scintillating acceleration and response at all engine speeds that make every drive enjoyable and special. The steering system offers linear, precise handling at any speed so you always feel perfectly in control, while electric power assist steering provides variable assistance. Advanced aerodynamics enhances Mazda6's stability for an even greater feeling of control. The suspension system ? high-mount double-wishbone at the front and E-type multilink at the rear ? is carefully tuned to provide the ideal balance between handling response and a smooth, comfortable ride. Front ventilated and rear solid disc brakes provide superb, linear braking with some of the shortest stopping distances in the class. And the body shell features extensive use of ultra-high-tensile steel to achieve both light weight and extreme rigidity for superior handling together with reduced fuel consumption.

Safety

New Mazda6 is provided with a full complement of safety measures to keep you in a relaxed, safe frame of mind to the end of the longest run. State-of-the-art active safety systems help you anticipate and avoid hazards, while a comprehensive passive safety package protects you and your passengers should an accident occur. The adaptive front lighting system (AFS) with Bi-Xenon headlamps* is a new feature added to Mazda6's long list of active safety measures that includes dynamic stability control, antilock brake system and brake assist.
