Product Overview

Mazda 6 II / Atenza Wagon (chassis code GH) facelift is an affordable mid-size station wagon in production from 2010 to 2012. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.8 to 2.2 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the main changes could be found in the front fascia, which now adopts a design that somehow looks like it should be more ancient than the pre-facelift model. Engine-wise, Mazda up-rated some petrol engines.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Mazda 6 comes with double-wishbone and multi-link suspensions. While unusual for a FWD vehicle, this setup offers superior handling characteristics than a normal strut setup.
