Is the 2019 Mazda 6 the BETTER BUY over a Camry or Accord?

  • The Mazda 6 just received a redesign last year. This 2019 Mazda 6 Signature Edition comes with a 2.5L turbocharged inline-4 producing 250HP & mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. On the inside the Mazda 6 Signature Edition takes the quality of materials and fit/finish to another level. Is this the sedan you should park in your garage for all of you needs?

    Great review - I love my Mazda 6 2019 2.5T - Unique styling, great pick up, sharp handling, very quiet cabin. The infotainment can be updated but Apple CarPlay & Android Auto makes up for it. Also the back-up camera really needs a re-call : ) However you do get a lot of car for the price point. Side note: The car has some of the most comfortable seats I've ever seen. Long distance driving is pure joy!

      If they want to do something special bring back the Mazdaspeed 6 for the 2020 year. Offer it with a AWD Standard only option and then AWD/FWD Paddleshift/Automatic like it did with the 2019 Mazda 3. Also offer that Black or Red Leather Interior. You could even add the white you've got some pickings. Add the Illuminated Doorsill Trim, upgraded speaker system perhaps, upgraded turbo say putting down near or over 300hp and some other stuff and you've got a killer Sports Sedan. Heck they could make it a 2 door for all I care. But yeah if they were to do that I think they could more than contend with Honda or Toyota.

      Unlikely they'll match Toyota and Honda. They've had many years to do so. It not impossible but not likely. They're not a powerhouse like Toyota and Honda. They're considered small compared to the other two giants. Of course it doesn't mean they don't make nice vehicles. The get overlooked mostly because of the other two Japanese badges.

    I rarely look at Mazda, but the 6 is very nice for the money. They seem to have come a long way since their Ford days. The styling is conservative vs the Camry, which is all subjective, but still looks good. I do think the Camry XSE is a bit sexier, but, again, that's just a styling preference. All in all, the 6 looks like a great car.

    I have a 2019 Mazda 6 sport and I LOVE IT!! I've always been a Chrysler kinda person, and never ever looked twice at a Mazda until I stepped foot into one. I was shook!! For sure. Chrysler will always have a place in my auto heart lol but wow!! I'm very impressed with Mazda so many features that most luxury cars have and at a very reasonable price. Also just the way the car feels rides very quiet in both cabin and motor also the seats are very very comfortable. My mazda already has a lil over 18,000 miles on it as I like road tripping and my daily commute to work. Nonetheless no back issues or uncomfortable issues with the seats. My only complaints is I wish Mazda would step it up with the screen size of the infotainment system, it could be much larger and also not being able to access the touch screen while car is in motion. Other than that I give it a 4.5 out of a 5

    Mazda hands down for me. They have never really cared about competing with Honda and Toyota. However these days they are starting to go after both.of them. They have always made cars for those of us who love to drive. And as always they punch above their class. Inside and out. The lack of a CVT is great, no rubber band feeling when you drive. Mazda still might be down on power but on a two lane road the Mazda will be long gone. Would love to see a 6 speed with the 6 though. Honda and Toyota are very generic looking as a whole.

      @ocramidajzj Před 5 lety

      Can't say I agree with the comment around Mazda trying to go after Toyota and Honda. I would agree when they releases the second Gen 626. That thing was a Camry competitor. But the Skyactiv line of cars are at a different level compared to Honda and Toyota IMO. Is Mazda trying to find a balance between their company ethos and staying competitive. Sure. To stay viable they have to appeal to a demographic that can sustain their business. But having owned over 10 Mazdas over the past 20+ years I can safely say that Mazda is continuing to refine and innovate, rather than sell out. Every time I'm ready for a new car I test drive everything and always come back to Mazda for their styling, dynamics, reliability, small company dynamic and affordability.

    The grill resembles a Maserati a little bit. Mazda should have installed red leather with that white exterior paint. That suede dash although looks pretty will fade in the sun over time. Mazda is reluctant to put pano roofs in their vehicles according to Savagegeese; something to do with harming the structure when you cut a big hole in the roof. It's time for Mazda to come out with a totally new redesigned Mazda6; this style has aged well but it's be around since 2014.

My first time driving Mazda as I have been driving Toyota and Honda for years and years and since I started driving. I get more compliments than 2018 Camry, Altima and Accord whenever I happened to park next to them in public places. Some say it looks like Jaguar and some say it looks like Tesla on the side view. I hope Mazda will have the power-folding side mirror, heated backseat, heads up display and lip spoiler standard in all the Grand Touring levels.
