5 reasons to buy the 2016 Mazda Mazda6
1. Rev it up
You'll zip down city streets in no time with the Mazda6's 2.5L four-cylinder engine that produces 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the front wheels, and when paired with the automatic transmission, the Mazda6's engine will take you from zero-to-60 in 7.6 seconds. Choose the Grand Touring trim for steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters that give you optimum control over the engine.
2. Less fueling, more fun
With the Mazda6, you'll spend less time at the gas station and more time on your next adventure. Mazda6 engines paired with the automatic transmission get an EPA-estimated 30 mpg combined.
3. Bring everyone along
In the 2016 Mazda6, the more, the merrier. With 38.7 inches of generous rear legroom and 37.1 inches of rear headroom, your friends will ask to ride in the backseat. Cargo space for those weekend trips out of town won't be a problem either, thanks to the Mazda6's 14.8 cu-ft of trunk capacity.
4. Connect on the go
Relax to your favorite podcast after a long workday in the Mazda6. The base Sport trim with automatic transmission comes standard with a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment display, Bluetooth® connectivity, USB port, and voice command capability. Shop for the Grand Touring trim for a navigation system, satellite radio, and an 11-speaker Bose sound system.
5. Convenient features
You'll have no problem finding a Mazda6 with features you love. The base Sport trim with automatic transmission gives full power accessories, a rearview camera, and a tilt and telescoping steering wheel. Search for the Touring trim level for keyless entry, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alerts, and power driver's seat.
