Mazda Motor Corporation announced today it will unveil a
thoroughly re-engineered and refined Mazda6 sedan (known as Mazda
Atenza in Japan) at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The company will
hold a press conference at 10:30 a.m. (local time) on Nov. 29, the
first of two press days. The show is open to the public from
December 1-10.
The Mazda6 is the flagship of Mazda's passenger car lineup. The
development team's goal for this round of updates, the third since
the model was fully redesigned in 2012, was to enhance the daily
lives of people who love cars, incorporating premium details and
new engineering concepts and technologies based on Mazda's
human-centered design philosophy.

The powertrain lineup adopts new technologies, including a cylinder
deactivation system for the SKYACTIV-G 2.5-liter gasoline engine,
to offer superior fuel efficiency and a performance feel crafted to
match human sensibilities. In addition, the SKYACTIV-G 2.5T
direct-injection turbocharged gasoline engine that debuted in the
Mazda CX-9 crossover SUV has been added to the engine lineup in
North America and some other markets. Producing torque on par with
4-liter V8, this engine offers an effortless performance feel that
is equal parts composure and excitement.
The concept behind the styling improvements is "Mature Elegance,"
and the design team worked to raise the quality feel of both the
interior and exterior, resulting in a look of greater maturity and
composure. A new high-grade interior features Japanese Sen Wood,
often used in traditional Japanese instruments and furniture, and
other exclusive trim elements for an enhanced premium feel that is
authentic to the brand. Overall the design is more distinctive,
premium, beautiful and dignified, as befits the flagship of Mazda's
passenger car lineup.
The updated Mazda6 offers a wider range of advanced i-ACTIVSENSE
safety technologies which help the driver identify potential risks
and reduce the likelihood of damage or injury. Mazda Radar Cruise
Control (MRCC) can now bring the car to a standing stop and take
off again when the car in front moves away, and the model also
adopts Mazda's latest 360 degrees View Monitor. In combination with
previously introduced safety features, these technologies allow
drivers to enjoy superior safety and worry-free driving under an
even wider variety of conditions.
The highly acclaimed VISION COUPE design concept, which the company
recently unveiled at the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show, and the updated
Mazda CX-5, which adopts the same SKYACTIV-G 2.5 with cylinder
deactivation as the new Mazda6, will both make their North American
debut at the L.A. Auto Show.
In line with its "Sustainable Zoom-Zoom 2030" long-term vision for
technology development, Mazda aims to use the fundamental appeal of
the automobile - driving pleasure - to inspire people, enrich
society and help bring about a beautiful earth. By offering an
experience of car ownership that celebrates driving, the company
hopes to enrich lives and build a strong bond with customers.
