The car has detail changes to the front end, along with new head and rear lamps. Six engines will be available, including a new 2.0-litre DISI1 petrol that uses less fuel and produces fewer emissions than the 2.0-litre engine it replaces.
Updated versions of the Mazda MZR 1.8 and 2.5 engines round out the petrol line-up, and on the diesel side the Mazda MZR-CD 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine is available in three power derivatives – from 129 to 180hp, with improved fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.
The upgraded car has new chassis settings and several new active safety features, including a new pivoting adaptive front lighting system and hill-launch assist.
Mazda6 facelift will go on sale in Europe this spring.
