Mazda6 Wagon - Blue Reflex Exterior, Interior and Drive

2017 Mazda6 Wagon Interior, Exterior and Drive. Color: Blue Reflex

The 2017 Mazda6 powertrain line-up features a choice of three SKYACTIV petrol engines -145 and 165 PS variants of the SKYACTIV-G 2.0 and the 192 PS SKYACTIV-G 2.5 - and two diesel units -150 and 175 PS versions of the SKYACTIV-D 2.2 - mated to automatic or manual transmissions.

The SKYACTIV-D 2.2 common-rail diesel features three new systems to raise responsiveness and reduce engine noise: High-Precision DE Boost Control enhances boost pressure control to sharpen the response to accelerator inputs; a Natural Sound Smoother uses a damper to stifle diesel knock range; and Natural Sound Frequency Control deviates engine timing to neutralise pressure waves, suppressing three critical frequency bands in which engine components typically vibrate most loudly.

This increase in engine quietness is complimented by a comprehensive improvement in sound insulation aboard the 2017 Mazda6, with the adoption of improved door seals, tighter tolerances between panels, and sound insulation materials added to the underbody, rear console, headliner and doors. Laminated front side windows further suppress wind noise.

On board, design improvements to enhance the Mazda-unique, driver-focused environment include a new steering wheel design, a new Active Driving Display (Mazda's heads-up display) now with higher resolution, full-colour graphics for greater readability in diverse light conditions, and a new 4.6-inch, full-colour TFT LCD driver's multi-information display with enriched graphics. A new, Machine Grey exterior colour is also available.

Finally, backed by outstanding passive safety levels, the 2017 Mazda6 is available with a full range of i-ACTIVSENSE active safety technologies. These include a European first; a new, Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) feature which identifies No Entry and speed limit signs, providing alerts should the driver exceed the limit, and the Advanced Smart City Brake Support system (Advanced SCBS), which replaces a near-infrared laser with a forward-sensing camera, widening the system's speed range for detecting other vehicles.
