A success story of the Mazda 6, thanks to a car that has received wide praise both aesthetic as functional aspects, ever since its first appearance. A story that begins in 2002, the debut of the model, which surprised us now for a crisp, modern design and excellent value for money, which was based on a frame with front suspension and a high double wishbone at the rear of a scheme multilink.
Launched in 2002, and in business since 2003, the Mazda 6 underwent a major facelift in 2005, but with the second set (presented in Frankfurt in 2007 and came on the market in early 2008), allegedly for its lines treated and stylistically very successful, the result of the pencil of the designer and Japanese designer Youichi Sato.
The latter model has strongly reinforced the image of the car, still spinning, but more care in assembly, with details of typical high-class car, the materials to the color combinations, from plastics to soft touch numersose electronic solutions designed to maximize quality of life on board.
Distinctively European car so far produced about 300,000 units, of which exactly half sold exclusively on our continent. In 2010, the second-generation Mazda 6 was renewed with a slight facelift that has softened the line making it more streamlined the front view. Just she is the protagonist of our test, we put under the microscope station wagon variant with the 2.0 direct injection petrol 155 bhp.
With the upgrade of mid-career have decreased consumption and have received new equipment for active safety. What I look forward to the first line of the Mazda 6 is an impression of dynamism. In front fog lamps have also undergone remodeling, now becoming more refined thanks to sports and chrome surrounds.
The rear lights are now a combination of clear lenses and LED, and are always characterized by the style in the shape of this wing on the front. Another new feature to be reckoned with is the adoption of new alloy wheels 17 and 18 inches, thanks to their special design gives a more sporty touch.
The interiors follow the evolutionary process of the exterior, with a refinement of the materials that give a greater feeling of quality. Have been used various chrome detailing on the knobs, switches, air conditioning and stereo, and the inside door handle. The panels may have a matte black finish or polished aluminum, depending on the version.
The upholstery and now has new reasons are of course also available leather interior well executed. Like the previous model the car is very spacious and equipped with numerous storage compartments. The cabin is very quiet thanks to an extensive use of sound-absorbing materials and the optimization of the vertical and mirrors that reduce the noise due to wind.
It 'been maintained the structure of the central platform of the previous version, but optimized to sound level. Along with the new wheels and stiffer shocks and road noise is significantly reduced. Here too we find the functional Karakuri rear seat system, whereby you can shoot down the back with a breakdown 60/40 by pulling a simple lever located in the luggage compartment side trim panel.
In every detail we can find an attention to detail and an almost obsessive quest for quality, distinctly Japanese. The Mazda 6 facelift is proposed on the Italian market with a range that includes two body variants, 4-door sedan and station wagon. The features included are Base, Experience, Executive, Luxury and Sport.
The basic version offers standard manual climate, DSC and traction control, four electric windows, and CD/MP3 audio system. Experience is the most gifted, equipped with 16-inch alloy wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, leather trim steering wheel and gear and light sensors and rain.
The Executive version boasts more than 17 "wheels, sound system with 6 CD and MP3 player and front and rear parking sensors. Speaking instead of the top fitting, the Luxury version is equipped with bi-xenon headlights with dynamic adaptive technology (AFS), the monitoring system in the rear view mirror (RVM), leather interior, electric front seats, Bose audio system with eight speakers.
Finally there is the Sport, together with accessories that have the Luxury of 18 "wheels, sports pedals, keyless access and starting (start / stop), instrument lights red / blue, tinted rear glass and aesthetic package" Sport Appearance. " Established at Hiroshima and Hofu, the Mazda 6 is one of the best products made today by the Japanese brand.
The Mazda 6, from 2010 the new engine was introduced gasoline direct injection MZR 2.0 DISI signed. This unit delivers a maximum output of 114 kW/155 hp at 6200 rpm and maximum torque of 193 Nm at 4500 rpm, providing an average consumption of 6.9 l/100 km and emission levels of carbon dioxide equivalent to 159 g / km.
In this engine can be coupled with a six-speed manual transmission or an automatic, when consumption rose to 7.6 l/100 km. The other petrol engine available on the Italian market is the 1.8 120 bhp and 165 Nm, 5-speed transmission, which allows the Mazda6 to consume an average of 6.4 l/100 km emitting 152 g / km of CO2.
As for the diesel units, we find the familiar MZR-CD 2.2 (Euro 5) on which the designers have reduced the diameter of the rotor of the turbine output, thus reducing the inertia of the turbine of 24% and increasing torque, efficiency and consumption. The engine is available with three power levels: 129 hp and 340 Nm (5.2 l/100 km, 138 g / km CO2), 163 hp and 360 Nm (5.4 l/100 km, 142 g / km CO2), 180 hp and 400 Nm with average consumption of intermediate unit.
From the dynamic point of view, the car pleasantly impressed by its easy handling, as well as the low noise level of its gasoline engine, which combines a good shot at high speed with good torque at low. The ride comfort is enhanced by the suspension settings very apt and on the quality of life on board, embellished with leather upholstery as well as a dashboard ergonomic, functional and well assembled.
High load capacity of the trunk, which also offers a good load floor with the bottom level and not too high off the ground. Rather precise and stable to drive, deserves particular praise for the operation of the Transmission: six-speed manual selector switch is very fast in the clutches.
Accurate and fun to operate, shows a very short race relations, which is even better than many manual transmissions characteristics-at least on paper-sports. Finally, both the highway is useful when you proceed to the RVM parallel lanes, which warns the driver of the occurrence of other cars when changing lanes.
The system is still disabled, like the rest of AFS, which can direct the lights inside of the bends. The direct-injection engine, sober and calm up to 4000 rpm, significantly improves its push towards higher speeds, displaying a decidedly sporty above 5000. Use in suburban and highway, the car stands out mainly for the quiet atmosphere and free of noise, typical of high class sedans and a strong special soundproofing, which keeps the noise to 72 dB below the carrier at a speed of 140 km / h.
