New Mazda 6 in Houston, TXThe 2017 Mazda 6 isn’t your average family sedan. The Mazda 6 is sleek and stylish, packed with power, and full of safety features to put your mind at ease.

Interior Details

The interior of the 2017 Mazda 6 has been designed with the refinement of a sports-car in mind. The center console is larger to accommodate the navigation and entertainment system, and the dashboard has been given a sporty update. Upgrade to the available high-grade Napa leather seats for even more luxury.

Every Mazda 6 comes standard with the Mazda Connect infotainment system. It’s fully touch screen and allows you to seamlessly connect to your smart device so you can make hands-free phone calls and listen to your favorite music. Add the available Bose 11-speaker surround sound system to bring your driving experience to the next level.

Skyactiv Technology

Mazda wanted to create a vehicle that had incredible performance while still ensuring it was fuel efficient. With their Skyactiv Technology, they’ve been able to do just that. They have reshaped the body to make it more aerodynamic. It is stronger, yet lighter, so you still get plenty of speed without sacrificing safety.

Mazda has also tweaked the internal combustion engine in order to deliver better fuel efficiency. The 2.5-liter engine that comes standard with all Mazda 6 vehicles has a higher compression rate than most conventional engines. This means that they’re getting more energy out of the fuel than a regular engine. This allows the Mazda 6 to give drivers up to 35 miles per gallon highway.

The Skyactiv Technology also gives drivers the choice between a Skyactiv 6-speed automatic transmission or the Skyactiv MT 6-speed manual transmission for more control behind the wheel.

Advanced Safety Features

The Mazda 6 comes standard with several safety technologies that make driving safer and more enjoyable. These features include rear cross traffic alert, a lane departure warning system, lane keeping assistance in case you veer into a busy lane, blind-spot monitoring, brake support in case you need a little extra help detecting objects, and cruise control.

The vehicle also has intelligent lighting systems that help you see better while making sure you’re a responsible driver. The high beam control system helps you see better at night and will alert you when you should turn it on. It then senses when there is an oncoming vehicle and it dims them until the vehicle has passed.

The available advanced LED lighting system is a great feature on the 2017 Mazda 6 that helps you see around bends and tight corners at night. As you turn, the lights pivot up to 15 degrees to help you better see what’s in front of you.

Another upgrade that makes the Mazda 6 so special is the available I-ACTIVESENSE system. The I-ACTIVESENSE uses cameras and radar around the outside of the vehicle to react to and alert you of unsafe situations.

The 2017 Mazda 6 is a vehicle that is packed with comfort and luxury yet it doesn’t sacrifice the speed, performance, or safety. What more could you ask for in a new car?
