The new range of Mazda cars is on its way, with the all new Mazda 2 the first to be replaced, the Mazda 3 and the Mazda 6 are all in set for an upgrade. With that in mind, Mazda Australia has added some value to the current Mazda6 shape to help sales going.
Previously the the top-selling Mazda6 came in “Limited”, “Classic”, “Luxury” variants, however since two weeks ago the sedan, hatch and wagon range is available in “Sports”, “Classic Sports” and “Diesel” variants. Meanwhile the 190 kilowatt turbocharged, all-wheel drive Mazda6 MPS range remains the same.
The Sports models, which is a replacement for the classic models, sees a price drop from $31,980 to a very respectable $28,990 for for the six-speed manual sedan. But the price difference isn’t the only benefit, the new Sports model gets
- new cloth seat trim with blue highlights (depending on the car’s exterior color),
- black brush centre console and door switch trim panels,
- high gloss finish 16 inch alloy wheels,
- chrome door handles and a rear spoiler on the sedan and hatch variants.
As far as safety goes, Mazda is one of the best, and the entire Mazda6 range comes with six airbags – dual front, front side for driver and passenger and head protecting curtain airbags and ABS anti-lock brakes with Electronic Brake-force Distribution
Some other innovative safety features include
- a breakaway brake pedal to reduce possible foot,ankle and lower leg injury;
- anti-whiplash head restraints for the front seats while all three rear-seat passengers get a head restraints and a lap/sash seatbelt.
The car is powered by a 122 kilowatt and 207Nm of torque 2.3-litre MZR engine and mated to a new six speed manual or five-speed Activematic automatic transmission with manual gear selection mode.
The Classic Sports, which replaces the Luxury Sports, drops in price from $40,995 to $39,990, and with the $1,000 saving you also get Dynamic Stability Control and chrome door handles.
