Video: 2010 Mazda MAZDA6

But we're gonna show you dollar for dollar, and feature by feature, the Mazda 6 competes really well against those two. If you're shopping in this class, you might be a bit of a conservative shopper, looking for the most bang for your buck. That doesn't mean you have to give up on styling, at least with the Mazda 6. If you go Accord, Camry, they're kind of boring. Everyone has one. The Mazda 6 definitely stands out. It was redesigned last year, and they did a really good job. Now it's not polarizing. We see a lot of new designs these days you either love or hate, 'cause it's just so wild. Mazda 6 definitely doesn't do that. It should be good for everybody. When comparing models, you don't want to just look at the base trim levels with the lowest price. You wanna look at the ones you might actually buy. Now the Mazda 6 we have here is a four cylinder, and it's called a Touring Plus Package, which competes against Honda Accord EX, and the Camry SE. But it does have some cool features, that those others two don't have. It only comes with standard Bluetooth. It has these cool lights under the mirror, which illuminate at night, so you can see the car when you're approaching it. It also has blind spot monitoring, which is a really neat feature in this class. Even though Mazda is a sporty alternative to other mid-sized sedans, they aren't skimping on interior room In every single dimension that either competes or beats the Accord and Camry, which is a big deal, especially in the rear with leg room. It also has a trunk that's bigger than the other two, which is great for stuff like golf clubs. They're two different engines you can get with the Mazda six. There's a really powerful V6 engine. It's a lot of fun to drive, but the steering's kind of heavy and the rides kind of rough. So if you go with the base four cylinder, it's a vastly different driving experience. It's actually quite comfortable and cushy. And the steering is kind of light. I acquaint it kind of to the Toyota Camry and how soft it is, and not as sport oriented as a Honda Accord or the Nissan Altima. Hopefully I've shown you the Mazda six isn't just about looks. It has practicality and utility too, but with all these features and for the low price, when you park it in your driveway, you won't feel guilty about it.
