I received this car for one week to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.
Mazda is a car company I have never really known anything about. Last year I got the chance to check out the 2015 Mazda3 so when I was offered the 2016 Mazda6 I was excited. The Mazda3 was a sporty car that I loved whipping around with my family and I knew the Mazda6 would be fun as well.
MPG – It uses a 2.5L SKYACTIV-G gasoline engine that is said to have better EPA-estimated highway MPG than the competition. The Highway MPG is 40.
Efficient – The engine braking system captures energy when you lift your foot off the accelerator and stores the energy to power the car’s electrical components – from the AC to power steering. This improves real-world fuel efficiency by as much as 5%. You can feel the power in the car and it kinda calms down when your not accelerating.
Lane Departure Warning System – Alerts you when drifting into another lane. Super useful but can be turned off.
Blind Spot Monitoring – Alerts you if vehicle or object is in your blind spot and unsafe to change lanes.
All-Season Tires – I have never used all-season tires but they were such a blessing with the snow we got here in Chicago, can’t believe I have never invested in them in my own car!
Advanced Keyless Entry System – With the Engine Start button you can easily start the car with your keys in your purse/pocket. There is also a button on the car handle you can push without pushing the un-lock on the keys! So convenient when I am juggling with my kids.
Roomy backseat – It is a 5-passenger car and I was able to fit my three kids comfortably in the backseat.
Easy to use Navigation System – I like navigation systems that are easy-to-use without having to read a whole manual. I had no problem using it and was able to find everything I needed.
Control Navigation System – You can use both Touchscreen or a Button which is easier to move around when driving.
Overall, the design makes it look like a luxury sports car, especially with the red color. It was a big change from my mini-van and I will say I enjoyed the pace. It was a very smooth ride and with the amazing fuel economy I drove around it for longer than I expected. My husband was actually interested in it as he is going to be in the market for a new car, and he is quite picking about cars! It wasn’t a 6-cylinder like he would have liked but for it was surprisingly a quick little car.

this car is fancy.i gotta go check one out
Love the blind spot feature ... so many people forget to check for bikes and other cars!
Looks like a nice car. My husband has a Mazda3, but it's getting old, and this looks like a nice one to replace it. Cars sure are getting fancy! I think I would like the blindspot warning, and the lane drifting would be good for my daughter learning to drive.
