2023 Mazda 6 G25 Touring review
The Mazda 6 is getting old, but it still has a few tricks up its sleeve. Who said sedans and wagons are dead?
The Mazda 6 is a study in ageing gracefully.
Now more than a decade old, it’s been upgraded constantly throughout its life to keep it fresh in the face of new competition from rivals, and from the steady stream of SUVs stealing away buyers from wagons and sedans.
When this car debuted in 2012 the VF Holden Commodore was brand new, the Ford Falcon still had three years left, and the locally assembled Toyota Camry was comfortably outselling the RAV4 SUV. How times have changed.
Rather than a big-selling rival to the popular Camry, the Mazda 6 has evolved into a luxurious sedan and wagon for the true believers who aren’t willing to make the leap to an SUV just yet. It takes on a tiny pool of competitors, led by the Camry but also including the Skoda Octavia… and that’s about it.
Don’t be fooled into thinking the Mazda 6 has nothing to offer, though. It’s feeling a bit old in places, but the old-school approach to family cars still has appeal in 2023.
Pros
- Interior is still nicely put together
- Reasonable pricing by 2023 standards
- Still looking good, even a decade on
Cons
- Tech looks and feels old
- 2.5-litre petrol is undergunned
- Limited rear headroom in Sedan
