2013 Mazda 6 Review

The 2013 Mazda 6 has no major changes other than the inclusion of eighteen inch wheels for the i Grand Touring and the i Touring Plus. The Mazda6 has a choice of five trim levels, the i Sport, i Touring, s Grand Touring, i Grand Touring and i Touring Plus. Options with the prefix s have a V6 engine while those with the i prefix have a four cylinder engine.

The i Sport has automatic headlamps, steel wheels that are sixteen inches, full power accessories, adjustable driver seat (height), air conditioning, steering wheel mounted controls (audio), keyless entry, cruise control, a six speaker CD system that has an auxiliary jack and a telescoping steering wheel that tilts.

The next model the i Touring sports a trip computer, fog lights, alloy wheels that are seventeen inches, an 6 CD changer in dash, power driver seat, upgraded interior trim, audio connectivity, leather wrapped shift knob, Bluetooth phone and steering wheel wrapped in leather.

An upgrade to the i Touring Plus will get you additional features such as outside mirrors with turn signals, a sunroof, electro-luminescent instrument gauges and a blind spot monitoring system. The s Grand Touring is similar with the exception of the power-train.

The Grand Touring models also come with the technology which is a popular option. It has automatic wipers, xenon headlights, keyless entry/ignition, heated outside mirrors, satellite radio, power passenger seat and auto dimming driver side and rearview mirrors.

The 2013 Mazda 6 i versions have a four cylinder, two point five liter engine that gives 100 lb feet of torque and 170 horsepower. 6 speed manual transmission is a standard feature on the i Sport. You can also get a 5 speed automatic option with manual shift control.

The 2013 Mazda 6 s Grand Touring has a three point seven liter V6 engine that gives 269 pound foot of torque and 272 horsepower and only comes with a 6 speed automatic transmission.

The interior of the Mazda6 cabin is ultra modern with a lot of sweeping lines and curves. It has ample legroom and headroom and even the backseats are roomy and comfortable. Overall it has a very classy look and is just as comfortable.

This car stands out from the other family sedans as it is rather easy to handle. It is better able to handle curves than the Honda Accord and is almost as fun to drive as the Nissan Altima.
