2018 Mazda Mazda6 Photo Gallery

Tweaks for 2018 give the Mazda6 a more elegant and upscale face. Note new chrome trim and grille.

Pre-facelift.

Proud front fender recalls the RX-8 of a decade earlier.

The Honda has a bolder, more polarizing design.

Clean body sides.

No mirror of the front fender in the plainer rear fender.

Clean finish.

More going on.

An unusually well-appointed interior for a car with a price in the mid-30s.

Accord Sport trim. But even the Touring has far more hard plastic surfaces than the Mazda.

Just pure, clean design with excellent materials, including synthetic suede across the IP's face.

The Mazda6 interior before the refresh.

Better controls than most.

Perhaps the weakest aspect of the interior. A good seat, but not a great one.

Much less rear legroom than some competitors.

Decent trunk. Rear seat folds to expand it.

The engine cover doesn't suggest anything special.

Skyactiv technology--now with a turbo (behind the engine in the photo).
