About MAZDA 6

The Mazda 6 or Mazda Atenza is a passenger car (D-segment in Europe) manufactured by the Japanese marque Mazda. It was created in 2002 as a replacement for the Mazda Capella or Mazda 626. Within its segment, this model was a success, as it sold much more easily than its predecessors. Part of this is due to its design philosophy, very carefully thought throughout its generations. This makes the Mazda 6 a recognizable car and that is easily differentiated from its competitors.

There have been 3 generations of this vehicle. During the first generation of the Mazda 6 or Mazda6, the Mazda G Platform continued to be used, inheriting the base of the 626. For the second generation, a modified version that Ford used in its CD3 Platform was chosen.

From the third generation, Mazda will be the one to fully develop its new platform, called Mazda GJ Platform, which integrates all SkyActiv technologies developed by the Japanese brand. Historically, the Mazda 6 has been sold in Liftback, Sedan and Estate/Family body styles. Performance versions of the Mazda 6 called Mazdaspeed6 or Mazda6 MPS have also been sold.

Among the competitors of the Mazda6 we find vehicles such as the Toyota Camry, Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat, Opel Insignia or Peugeot 508.
