Mazda6


Comfort and Refinement

The Mazda6 Estate's seats are comfortable and supportive offering good lateral support. The drivers seat has a flexible position with an adjustment range of 260mm in length and 55mm in height. Additionally the lumbar support proved to be very comfortable whilst driving long distances soothing an existing back problem. The leather covered steering wheel is also height adjustable by 45 mm to enable the driver to find the optimum driving position.

Power steering is standard throughout the range and cruise control is standard on TS, TS2 and Sport models which proved excellent for relaxed Motorway driving.

The Mazda6's level of refinement is high and includes climate control air conditioning, all round electric windows with one touch up and down driver's window, electrically heated and adjustable door mirrors, remote central door locking, clock, outside temperature gauge, touring computer, rear window demister, front door courtesy lamps, adjustable intermittent wipers, steering wheel mounted audio controls, illuminated lockable glove box and sun visor with illuminated vanity mirror (driver and front passenger).

The climate control air conditioning was particularly efficient and very easy to operate via large tactile dials - keeping you comfortably at your preferred temperature.

How It Looks - Exterior

The Mazda6 Estate's design is both bold and modern and is not to dissimilar to the Honda Accord. However, the Mazda6 incorporates the unmistakable Mazda family styling cues of subtly flared wheel arches, five-point grille and distinctive quad headlights.

Body coloured bumpers, door mirrors, door handles and side moulding's are standard. Tinted glass, front mud flaps and the standard 16" alloys wheels further accentuate the Mazda6's overall appearance.
