2014 Mazda6 Test Drive & Car Video Review

http://www.autobytel.com/mazda/mazda6... The 2014 Mazda6 combines a technological advanced SKYACTIV engine, refined exterior, and exciting driving characteristics into one great all around package. This 3rd generation Mazda6 builds on the success of its predecessors while still maintaining an affordable base price at $20,880. If you have to buy a new sedan then might as well go for one that looks great!

The mid-sized sedan segment is not very exciting even though it is quite competitive. Most vehicles in this category all have the same styling and can get lost in a sea of the mundane. But the 2014 Mazda6 could be the exception. Mazda is a passionate car company looking to make fun automobiles.

The exterior of the Mazda6 has been completely redesigned. Gone is the smiley grille replaced by a much more vertical and pronounced piece. This great new look can be seen on other Mazda vehicles, most notably the CX-5. While most manufacturers are moving to the cab forward design, Mazda has instead gone for a cab rearward look by stretching the sheet metal. The lines on the side seem to keep flowing. This car is not just about form; the new model also uses a lot more high strength steel. Mazda has made a conscious effort to convert the Mazda6 from a regular mid-sized car into a premium car. From the back the simple design looks very upscale, almost like a Lexus ES.

On the inside Mazda has done a lot to compliment the outside. The gauges and instrument panel have all been updated. The 2014 Mazda6 is available in 3 trim levels: Sport, Touring, and Grand Touring. The higher the trim level the more standard features you get.

You probably have heard about SKYACTIV technology on many of the new Mazda vehicles. This powerplant has now made its way onto the 2014 Mazda6 making the car more fuel efficient. The engine is a 2.5 liter 4-cylinder 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft. of torque. Fuel economy is excellent at 26 MPG in the city and 38 MPG on the highway.

The 2014 Mazda6 can satisfy a whole range of automotive shoppers; from those who just need a commuter car to the enthusiast looking for a fun daily driver.
