The Long-awaited Presentation of the New Mazda 6 Third Generation

Most recently, at the Moscow International Motor Show, the new Mazda 6 sedan of the third generation was finally introduced to the general public, and soon the Mazda 6 wagon at the Paris exhibition. Talk about this model was long and the Japanese themselves at the beginning of this year in absentia represented their offspring. And it is worth saying that the result of their work hardly disappointed someone.

For both models, the red color of Soul Red was chosen, which, according to Akira Tamatani, most favorably emphasizes the new body shape.

Looks this beauty is really amazing: in appearance it looks more like a sports coupe. The main distinguishing feature of her appearance was the use of the grille, which was first used on the CX-5 crossover. In addition, slightly different in shape and headlights. Compared with the previous model, the new Mazda 6 has become longer. In general, the unified style of the body is consistent and corresponds to the overall design concept of the company Mazda, which is called "Soul of Motion": the smoothness of lines and shapes, the emphasis of each detail is preserved.

As for the technical details, then there is practically nothing to find fault with. First, the interior of the new Mazda 6 has become more spacious and comfortable. It combines elements from the BMW 3 Series, Audi 4A and VW Passat, although Tamatani himself emphasizes exactly the influence of Audi. In general, the cabin combines practicality, rigor and restraint, characteristic for German cars. In addition, the interior design has become more ergonomic. For example, as we have already said, the interior became larger, the seats themselves increased (the seat cushion became slightly longer and the backrest increased). The distance between the rear and front seats has also been slightly increased.

It's also worth noting the economy of the new Mazda 6. Its secret is in the use of the new i-ELOOP technology, or the Intelligent Energy Loop Technology, which was previously shown on the Mazda Takeri concept car, but will only be introduced to mass production on the third generation Mazda 6. This technology will help to promote the car among environmentalists, because Thanks to it in the city the car will consume 10% less fuel and, accordingly, the amount of emissions into the atmosphere will decrease .

Here is a new beauty with Akira Tamatani. However, this was to be expected, especially, remembering the previous model Mazda 6, which in its time was presented in white.

In general, Mazda as always pleased its admirers and made it clear that, despite all its achievements, it has much to develop and what to impress.
