It"s nip-and-tuck time...
It"s nip-and-tuck time for the Mazda 6! These are the first images of Japanese-specification versions of the company"s Ford Mondeo rivalling family car.
Getting a mild restyling, new direct-injection 2.0-litre petrol engine, suspension changes and a revised cabin, they preview UK models which will arrive in showrooms next year.
On the outside, the 6 adopts the latest example of Mazda"s family "face" with a swooping front grille ð€“ inspired by the firm"s "flow" design language ð€“ while other changes include redesigned bumpers with extra air intakes, fresh alloys and new tailights.
On the inside, there"s a new glossy, piano-black finish for the centre console, some extra chrome trim for the climate control dials, gear lever and door handles.
Under the bonnet, the 6 gets the same direct injection 2.0-litre petrol engine as the recently revised Mazda 5 MPV which will debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March. Other updates include revised power steering and suspension settings to improve handling and ride comfort.
