5 reasons to buy the 2019 Mazda Mazda6
1. Sleek interior
The chiseled body and fastback roofline make the 2019 Mazda6 look born for the open road. Its angular mesh grille and sculpted front-end air intake accentuate the vehicle's low and wide stance, while the artful design of its sleek LED headlamps gives the midsize sedan an upscale image. Sharp lines that flow from the hood and around the body amplify the Mazda6's sense of motion and make this coupe-styled sedan look anything but ordinary.
2. Robust infotainment system
Infotainment is front and center in the 2019 Mazda6 with a high-mounted eight-inch color touchscreen display centered in the dash. Standard features include HD Radio™, Aha™, Stitcher™, and Pandora® internet radio integration, SMS text message audio delivery and reply, and more. Rather than fumbling around on the screen, you can opt to use the standard voice command capability or multifunction controls in the center console to operate the system.
3. A massive suite of technology
Standard advanced driver-assistance features raise the 2019 Mazda6's premium appeal even higher. Every model is equipped with sensors that provide blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. Other basic equipment includes lane-keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control that functions in stop-and-go traffic to reduce stress. The standard forward collision warning with emergency braking has pedestrian-detection capabilities that keep you aware of your surroundings.
4. Easy to bring tech on board
The 2019 Mazda6 offers available Apple CarPlay® and Google Android Auto™ on some trims to quickly integrate compatible mobile devices with the vehicle's infotainment system. These smartphone projection capabilities provide easy access to the apps you use the most, helping you stay connected to work, family, and friends while on the road. Rear-seat passengers will be able to power their gear using two USB charging ports revealed in the storage compartment of the fold-down armrest in Touring and higher trims.
5. Spirited driving dynamics
One of the best-kept secrets about the 2019 Mazda6 is its remarkable driving dynamics. Equipped on all models is G-Vectoring Control Plus, a system that subtly adjusts weight shift to optimize stability and control during quick lane changes and around curves. Four wheel-independent front MacPherson struts paired with a stabilizer bar delivers a smooth ride with responsive handling.
