2014 Mazda Mazda6 Photo Gallery

Big grille, but not too big. Chrome highlight subtly adds visual interest.

Boldest appearance from this angle.

Front fender arches better integrated than before.

The Grand Touring's 19-inch wheels are sexier. But the car doesn't look bad with the 17s.

Fusion SE Sport has 18-inch wheels. Which car is more attractive? Depends on personal taste.

Unlike the Fusion and Accord, the Mazda's proportions are almost those of a rear-drive car.

I can't decide--elegantly understated, or a bit plain? Area around the rear wheel lacks something.

Chrome highlight on the trunk lid mirrors that around the grille.

More business-like than others. But easily worthy of a $22,000 price.

Don't notice much of a difference? (This is the Grand Touring's interior.)

Better materials but more confusing controls in the Ford Fusion. Red stitching even with cloth.

Nothing fancy, though the upper instrument panel is soft to the touch.

Simple, easy-to-operate controls and clear instruments. Excellent driving position.

Cloth trim helps compensate for modest side bolsters. Headrests a bit too far forward.

Viable rear seat, but others are roomier and more comfortable.

Competitive trunk space.

Decent power, sounds good when revved.

Why cover this up?
