Over the years, the Mazda6 has always been known as one of the most stylish sports cars in the midsize sedan segment in the market.
However, the suspension assembly of cars in Vietnam made the image of Mazda6 gradually sink into oblivion and was quickly overshadowed by other names such as the Camry, Accord, Teana ...
In the third generation, the 2014 Mazda6 looks muscular than ever
But 2013 could be a milestone marks the revival of the Mazda6 after official presence in Vietnam market in mid December / 2012 through importers and assembled VinaMazda. Currently, distribution VinaMazda 2014 Mazda6 under two 2.0L and 2.5L versions.
During the test drive the new car, we were lucky enough to be behind the wheel of the most powerful 2.5L version of the Mazda6 in 2014 and was given the chance to explore and experience the latest technology that Mazda page for this vehicle.
Appearance
Overall, you will not have much to complain about the design of new-generation Mazda6 2014 when I first saw them. Admittedly, this 3rd generation, the 2014 Mazda6 has not merely a sedan associated with the word "sport", it is now also show a new look sexy and muscular than ever .
For that, the new Kodo design language (the soul of the movement) continues to be a source of inspiration to build Mazda6 2014 after the design language was more or less certain to bring success on their new CX-5 crossover.
Seen from the front, the grille "smile" large vertical features designed to create alignment with the two sides through chrome rims headlights and LED strip lighting on, seems to have little in common BMW 3-Series.
While the horizontal viewing angles, zoom-zoom philosophy and Mazda's Kodo design language is evident through the winding path through the body. The cabin tends to shift more to the rear, windshield ramp make the hood look longer as well as improving the aerodynamics for the new-generation Mazda6.
A noteworthy point, the rearview mirror of the 2014 Mazda6 has been arranged back to back, along the door, not in the traditional design associated pillar A. Such an arrangement would significantly improve the ability to look around for the driver.
At the rear, the 2014 Mazda6 has a fairly short finish. The idea from concept Takeri almost been replaced by the more pragmatic design, such as exhaust meek, backlight LED technology reducing factors ... But basically, it ensures the harmonious balance with the overall design of the car.
Furniture
Inside the cockpit of the 2014 Mazda6, Mazda's engineers continue to show their favor for control when designing leather-wrapped steering wheel with small diameter, tubular instrument cluster sports seats highly surrounded with many power features supported.
In the center console area, Mazda used the vertical visual style to create drive space is spacious and airy, while still ensuring quality sports area.
The minimalist buttons are realized with a 5.8-inch touch screen to adjust the entertainment features at the top and three large knob and a few small buttons to control the temperature, ventilation in the bottom.
Interior space the 2014 Mazda6 looks spacious, airy and modern
3rd generation with the 2014 Mazda6, Mazda is equipped with a control system multimedia screen similar to BMW's iDrive, unfortunately this feature was cut when the new Mazda6 is distributed in Vietnam.
Instead, the features that consumers can own include: air conditioning system 2 independent zones for the front and rear seats, DVD entertainment system, / FM Bose audio with 11 speakers (version 2.5), reversing camera (version 2.5), start button, sunroof, Bluetooth / USB / AUX ... With so many features, I felt probably had enough with the need to use Day of the user.
In the area behind the seats of the 2014 Mazda6 offers comfort for the passengers during a long journey. Length wheelbase was extended up to 2830 mm along the road raised dome design makes the 2014 Mazda6 improve leg and head space to sit. Overall, the interior design of the new Mazda 6 was much more abundant than the potential liability.
Engine and operation
Under the hood, the V-6 3.7L engine option is gone, the version 2.0L I-4 and I-4 2.5L has been replaced by the new engine generation direct fuel injection known called SKYACTIV also includes 2 versions of the gasoline engine 2.0L I-4 and I-4 2.5L. VinaMazda currently adequate distribution of the two versions.
Compared to version 2.0 that we tested earlier, the capacity of version 2.5 a little larger, 140 kW (188 hp) and torque of 250 Nm, still use a 6-speed automatic transmission as version 2.0.

But this version add the following shake of the steering wheel give the driver more sporting driving experience features and recover braking system i-ELOOP will help supplement power supply for vehicle accumulate after each press brake.
Although driving is not much time but we still easily find plus point in the 2014 Mazda6. First, since the i-STOP technology, allowing the car to temporarily disconnect the engine when stopped in for a short time.
This technology will help reduce fuel consumption at a certain level. Next is surprisingly soft start motor and light electric power steering system that still provides accurate navigation.
Outstanding that technology SkyAtiv brings is outside the direct fuel injection engine, it also provides very high compression ratio of up to 13:01, this particular engine can allow customers to use only gasoline octane rating as low as 92 and even 87.
This is also something that users often consider when buying expensive cars to use the new engine technology.
Pedal fast reaction, 6-speed automatic transmission smooth shifting
Sitting in the car, the 2014 Mazda6 offers to vote fairly quiet and does not feel annoyed by the noise from the outside, despite the car that we test drive the standard size tires size 225/45 R19.
Quick accelerator response sensitivity, 6-speed automatic transmission shifting smoother but with a medium capacity engine, what do you expect in the 2014 Mazda6 will of course not be the speed with which are mainly located in the smoothness and ease of operation.
However, the capacity of 140 kW is considered enough to make this car weighs 1,458 kg with 9 seconds to accelerate from 0-100 km / h.
In addition to the internal switch of the engine, Mazda is also very focused on the safety of the vehicle. It is represented by equipment such as ABS anti-lock braking, electronic balance DSC, six airbags, automatic headlight angle adjustment, dimming rearview mirror, reversing camera and sensors before following.
Reviews
Compared to its competitors on the market today, the 2014 Mazda Mazda6 excels in a variety of new technologies and are regarded as factors that make attractive for customers to come close to this car.
After the period of absence, the 2014 Mazda6 now needs time to confirm. And we believe that this car will soon reap success.
