  • The new engine in this Mazda 6 isn't exactly going to set the world on fire in terms of performance, but it's a perfect match for the chassis and provides enough sportiness if you want to have a crack on occasion.

    Great looking car. Good video. 'Atenza' is what people in Japan call this car, not the Mazda 6. Like Axela would be the JDM name for the Mazda 3 and Demio would be for the Mazda 2.

    Confusing review...in external walk around reviewer states there is 'stacks of room inside', yet when sitting in the rear seat, is very critical of leg room, toe room and head room saying it's not fantastic and disappointing. I think you've got to get this consistency right in any review really.🤔

    Great car one that ill be buying in the near future. The reviewer failed to mention that you need 98 octane petrol to get the power from the turbo charger. Also it would be nice if a reviewer actually mentioned geared nm power and not the top power spec.

    That car seems to be identical to the top end US model (save for the name) but it would appear that Mazda thinks we need a little tacked on spoiler on the trunk/boot lid to make it look more sporty. =P

    Could we spray/treat the under guards with body deadener to cut down the road noise? Also what about a remap of the ECU to get a bit more out of it?

    • @Hapkido82AUS
      @Hapkido82AUS Před 2 lety +2

      Probably a good idea. I'd also add butyl sound deadening to inside of doors, boot etc. And using 98 instead of 91 takes power from 170kw to 184kw 😎

      The Skyactiv X engine is slated for the Mazda3 in 2019. No reason for them to offer the 2.5t in that case.

    Good review, but I'll have to disagree and say that no Mazda 6 was ever the same size as any Commodore. So you shouldn't expect the same interior room.

    I know Mazda is more popular in AUS compared to the USA. I don't think this model update is going to change anything. Mazda has no cachet in the US. Is considered an also run. USA market doesn't care about handling or "feel." The 6 is very rare here. Best sellers are CX-5 and 3. Sad but so.

    So in Australia this car has two names? lol Mazda 6, which is the global name, and Atenza, which is the Japanese and Chinese name.

    • @jamesloganarcher
      @jamesloganarcher Před 6 lety +2

      It's referred to as the Mazda6 with Atenza being the 'trim level' name. So Atenza is the top trim level, with others being Sport, Touring, and GT.

    • @deet4895

    If you were to die today are you 100% sure you can go to heaven?. So, you must realize that you sinned, against a holy God therefore you are a sinner(Romans 3:23 - For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God), if 1 crime makes you a criminal, then 1 sin=you are a sinner. And God has to punish sin with hell forever( Revelation 20:5 - And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever). But, you can be saved/go to heaven because of Jesus Christ and only what He did( who is God by the way John 1:1 and 14 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God/And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.) by putting all your FAITH/TRUST from the HEART in the death on the cross for the forgiving of sins, burial and ressurection on the third day of Jesus Christ, the BLOOD of Jesus for the forgiving/cleasing of sins(1 Corinthians 15:1-4 - Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures), (Romans 5:9 - Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. ). Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God/ Not of works, lest any man should boast. You don't have to do anything to get to heaven, no work, just trust, RELY on what Jesus Christ did, in His blood for your salvation. Now if you put your trust in what Jesus did, you are going to heaven no matter what, you have eternal security(Ephesians 4:30 - And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption). Now of course grace is not a excuse to sin. Do not sin but not to get saved or stay saved but only to please God.( Romans 6:1-2 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?), after death going to heaven or not you will face judgement. If saved, you will go to The Judgement Seat of Christ where your works you do after being saved are judged for rewards there.Also out of a good conscience we must not bother God by sinning because he died for us to be saved.
