Mazda 6 III / Atenza (GJ)

Mid-Size Wagon

Product Gallery

Product Overview

Mazda 6 III / Atenza Wagon (chassis code GJ) is an affordable mid-size station wagon in production from 2012 to 2015, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.5 liters.

Compared to the Mk2 model, the Mk3 Mazda6 received a much more modern exterior styling. It remains handsome, though part of the elegance was gone.

Unfortunately, Mazda downgraded the suspension setup of the Mazda6 to MacPherson strut at the front, perhaps in an attempt to drive down costs. While the tech has been upgraded, the interior no longer had the wow factor.
