This means it\u2019s more powerful and more fuel efficient than ever. Designers and engineers collaborated closely to give purpose to the stunning forms. As a result, there are no compromises: What you get is as good as what you see. <\/p>\n<p>Both the sedan and wagon, being presented side-by-side for the first time in Paris, have overall lengths, wheelbases and interior dimensions that are at or near the top of its segment.

And, in addition to being quieter and more aerodynamic, the new Mazda6 is also a segment leader in terms of safety. <\/p>\n<p>With the signature wing family face and forms expressing such great vitality, strength and agility \u2013 all KODO trademarks \u2013 the new Mazda6 is a car people will want to drive from the minute they lay eyes on it.
