THE 2020 MAZDA 6

There was a time in the recent past that sedans ruled the automotive landscape. They provided a great combination of versatility, performance, and style that dominated the sales charts and magazine covers. The right sedan could tackle a set of twisties with aplomb, deliver the kids to hockey in comfort, then turn heads at the club, all in one weekend.

They heyday of the sedan may be over, but the segment still captures the heart of many who value performance, handling, safety, and efficiency, wrapped in a stylish package. For those enthusiasts, the Mazda 6 soldiers on as the benchmark for design and athleticism in the sedan arena.

At the heart of the Mazda 6 is either a Skyactiv-G 2.5L normally aspirated four-cyliner, or Skyactiv-G 2.5L Dynamic Pressure Turbo four-cylinder, rated at 187 and 250 horsepower, respectively. These are mated to a six-speed automatic with manual-shift mode, and Skyactiv-Vehicle Dynamics with G-Vectoring Control Plus. The result is a smooth ride that sips fuel, then, especially with the turbo model, packs a heavy punch when needed.

With the capable engine choices comes a chassis that sings in the corners, planted and stable, yet agile and responsive. Surprising levels of grip, combined with minimal body roll, create a sense of composure in the corners befitting of a sports sedan twice the price.

The Mazda 6 punches far above its weight inside, too, with luxury appointments and fit-and-finish not found elswhere in this segment. Available Nappa leather-trimmed upholstery and Ultrasuede-trimmed accents are found in the Signature trim level, which also includes wood-trimmed dash and door panels.

Outside, Mazda's exclusive Kodo design principals create a clean, uncluttered look that whispers instead of shouts, and available 19" wheels provide a sporty stance and improved turn-in response.

For the enthusiast looking for true sport with their versatility and efficiency, the Mazda 6 stands out in a sea of SUVs. Take a test drive today at County Mazda, 391 Westville Road, New Glasgow, B2H 2J6. We deliver anywhere in atlantic Canada!
