Mazda 6 2013 Review

Although the Mazda 6 is a Japanese-made vehicle, it presents a highly attractive design, and goes as far as contending European standards and embodying an aesthetic similar to that of the Aston Martin. In this review, we will take a deep dive into the design, performance, specs, pros and cons of the Mazda 6 2013 model.

Exterior Design:

The Mazda 6 2013 features a design that perfectly embodies the KODO design philosophy. Its exterior design showcases a sense of motion and sophistication, with no design inconsistencies from any angle whatsoever. With its 19-inch alloy wheels, adaptive headlights, and a ground clearance of 165mm, the Mazda 6 is widely regarded as one of the most attractive vehicles available in the non-luxury car market. In fact, this upscale, performance-focused car can even give high-end brands such as BMW and Audi a run for their money.

Interior Design:

Mazda 6 offers plentiful rear legroom, providing a comfortable journey for up to six passengers in a first-class cabin-like environment. Also, the design of its interior is clean, functional, and well-thought-out. The cabin features a polished aluminum trim. However, the screen and touch buttons on the interface are quite small. Additionally, the Mazda 6 is equipped with a remote boot opener, and boot space of 480 liters of capacity. Moreover, the rear seats are foldable to further expand the boot space.

Performance:

The 2013 Mazda 6 is equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 184 horsepower and 185 torque. You have the option to choose between a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission, with the Grand Touring trim available only in automatic. The Mazda 6 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 7.6 seconds. In terms of fuel efficiency, it achieves around 8 km per liter in the city and 14 km per liter on the highway, striking a good balance between performance and efficiency.

Ride Quality:

The 2013 Mazda 6 offers a commendable pick-up, far better than that of a regular sedan. The handling and driving feel are high in the Mazda 6, thus offering excellent driving pleasure and fun. One of the standout features of the 2013 Mazda is its powertrain that offers a smooth and quick acceleration to the vehicle.

Safety and Technology:

The standard safety features of the Mazda 6 include antilock disc brakes, traction and stability control, front-seat side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, and active front head restraints. Also, the Touring and the Grand Touring trims include blind-spot and rear cross-traffic monitoring.

Only the Grand Touring features Mazda’s Smart City Brake Support, which incorporates a collision-mitigation system. It has the ability to detect an imminent collision, utilizing an infrared sensor on top of the windshield. In the event of a collision, if the driver is not responding, the vehicle has the capacity to stop itself, automatically applying the brakes with a low speed.

Overall, the Mazda 6 is well-regarded for its safety features and has earned a five-star rating in various safety assessments.
