Mazda6 2.0 TS2 Diesel

Mazda6 Review

Mazda’s fleet success has been built around the Mazda6 and its CO2-friendly; fuel efficient 2.0 litre common-rail diesel engine has proved to be a hit with company car drivers and private owners alike. The 2.0 MZR-CD common-rail diesel engine offers impressive fuel consumption and a choice of either 121 or 136 ps.

The Mazda6 was the best selling Mazda model in 2003 (to date over 20,000 Mazda6’s have been sold since its UK launch) and it recently won 2004 Used Family Car of the Year in the Auto Express Used Car Honours. [ click here for more information ]

With the ever growing demand for diesel fuel economy from both the private and fleet sector Mazda6 diesel sales are guaranteed go from strength to strength.
