Design & Presence

Mazda has dressed the new 6 Saloon in a clean, elegant suit that blends classic sedan proportions with modern details. The long bonnet, short overhangs and rear-wheel-drive stance are obvious in person and give the car a poised, athletic look on the road. At just under 5.0 metres in length — 4,921 mm — the 6 sits between compact and executive saloons and reads as more grown-up than hatchback alternatives. Subtle chrome, tapered headlights and a tidy rear end avoid flashiness while still commanding presence in traffic.

Interior & Usability

Inside the Mazda 6 Saloon the cabin aims for understated quality with soft-touch surfaces, well-bolstered seats and a civic sense of order rather than gadget overload. Controls are logically placed and the driving seat feels supportive on long runs, while rear passengers enjoy a comfortable bench for three — it is a 5-seat car after all. Material fit and finish punch above the price point, with only a few hard plastics where competitors sometimes use soft trim.

Space & Everyday Practicality

Practicality keeps a sensible profile: luggage space is measured at a modest 336 litres with seats up but expands to a useful 1,074 litres when folded, so weekend bags or flat-packed furniture are manageable. The roofline doesn't overly compromise headroom, and shoulder room holds up for two adults in the back, though a third passenger may feel snug on long trips. Curb weight hovers around 2,027–2,028 kg and payload is roughly 359–360 kg, reminders that battery packaging influences useful load compared with traditional petrol saloons. For daily commuting and occasional family use the 6 balances trunk convenience with the clean lines buyers want.

Driving & Handling

Driving dynamics are where the 6 Saloon earns its keep: rear-wheel drive, a reduction gearbox and a low centre of mass give it poised balance and predictable turn-in. Power outputs sit around 245–258 hp with 320 Nm of torque, producing brisk acceleration in the mid 7‑second range from 0–100 km/h (7.6–7.8 s), enough to overtake confidently on highways. The suspension is tuned toward comfort without becoming floaty, so the car soaks up mid‑distance tour duty while still rewarding an engaged driver on twistier roads. Top speed is limited to 175 km/h, which keeps the focus on real-world usability rather than track performance.

Efficiency/Consumption & Range

Efficiency is a headline: consumption figures of roughly 16.5–16.6 kWh/100 km are very economical for a saloon of this size, contributing to claimed ranges between about 479 and 552 km depending on the version. Those numbers mean that most commuters will only need to charge a few times a week, and longer trips become manageable without constant recharging stops. Real-world consumption will vary with speed, climate and luggage — expect somewhat higher figures in winter or at sustained motorway pace — but the Mazda's efficiency gives it a clear advantage over heavier, thirstier EVs. Zero tailpipe emissions and an A efficiency rating underline the car's role as a sensible, low-running-cost executive transport.

Assistance & Infotainment

Mazda outfits the 6 Saloon with a modern suite of driver assistance features and a straightforward infotainment system designed to minimise distraction and keep important functions close at hand. Adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping aids and automated emergency braking are part of the package, working well in everyday traffic even if the system doesn't try to be overly clever. The screen presentment is clean, smartphone integration is supported and physical controls for climate and driving modes make routine adjustments quick and satisfying.

Who is it for?

The Mazda 6 Saloon targets buyers who want a stylish, composed electric sedan that feels more driver-focused than many blue-badged alternatives while still offering everyday comfort and efficiency. Multiple electric variants are offered, delivering around 245–258 hp and ranges from roughly 479 to 552 km, so buyers can prioritise either peak range or a touch more performance. For executives, families or commuters seeking an elegant, efficient and engaging EV saloon the 6 is a compelling, well-rounded choice without needless flash.
