Mazda technology first appear on the near Mazda6
An upgraded 2015 Mazda6 Saloon and Tourer line-up goes on sale in the UK early next year, featuring tech firsts for the updated range.
It will feature improved standard equipment levels across the entire model range, enhanced interior and exterior design, plus improved functionality, ride comfort and quietness.
The 2015 model range is available in five grades; SE, SE Nav, SE-L, SE-L Nav and Sport Nav.
There is a choice of nine diesel and seven petrol Saloon variants, and nine diesel and three petrol Tourer versions. Each is equipped with either six-speed manual or automatic transmissions.
Eight body colours are also available, including a new Sonic Silver metallic that accentuates the Mazda6's stunning form and character lines.
"Mazda's SKYACTIV technologies and 'KODO:Soul of Motion' design already offer a unique combination of striking design, lively performance and highly competitive running costs," said Mazda UK Sales Director, Peter Allibon. "Now, new range-wide standard equipment upgrades, enhanced interior and exterior design as well as improvements to functionality, ride comfort, NVH and Safety Pack, make the 2015 Mazda6 an even more compelling proposition to private buyers and fleet customers alike."
SE and SE-L grades now include Mazda's first electronic parking brake, a coming/leaving home headlamp function, the company's Multimedia Commander with separate volume dial for safe, intuitive interactivity and infotainment control, manual driver and front passenger seat height adjustment.
A new 7-inch, full-colour, centre console touch-screen incorporates DAB radio and MZD Connect. Paired with a smartphone, MZD Connect makes it easier to take advantage of functions such as internet connectivity and access to social networking services.
Top-of-the-range Sport Nav models benefit from new exterior features including a re-styled front - new grille and signature wing design - incorporating powerful LED headlamps including LED daytime running lights, LED foglamps, new LED tail lamps, and new 19-inch bright alloy wheels.
