Test drive Mazda Mazda 6 (Atenza) Sedan since 2007 sedan
Two steps from the ideal
Having earned a reputation of one of the most reliable cars in the world in the past generation, in the current six received a rare in the middle class of a bright, expressive appearance. And she kept, fortunately, the driver. And when a successful car also has a favorable price who is the last in line? The line, by the way, has been able to significantly reduce the Russian importer of Mazda recently. Car delivery is organized from Japan not through Finland, but directly along the Trans -Siberian Railway. In the spring, the six had to wait for 35 months. Now you can choose from the available in the warehouse. And those who still agree to wait a month and a half will receive exactly the modification that they wish.
As a result, even with the abundance of competitors of Mazda-6, like her predecessor, among the leaders of the middle class. Only Avensis is a little better. Moreover, if the lion's fraction of Toyota is bought with a base 1.8-liter engine, then the venue is chosen with a more generous equipment and a 2-liter engine.
What is the price?
And not at all because the initial direct-1,8 for 669,000 rubles is bad. On the contrary, the equipment of such a six is \u200b\u200balmost the richest in the middle class. In addition to the usual air conditioning, music, an electric packet, a set of safety of six pillows, ABS and ESP in Mazda do not save on disks made of light alloy, headlight washing, heating of mirrors and front seats.
However, with only one look at the interior of the second -level version of the touring, many agree to pay extra 58,000 rubles. Here, the eyes are pleased with the inserts under aluminum on the door panels and the steering knitting needles. On the rim of the steering wheel and a knob of the lever KP, pleasant skin instead of rough polyuritan foam. Yes, and the finish palette can be chosen not only strict black, but also a more lively, light beige shade.
Of course, without the fog headlights in Turin, or even more so cruise control, it is quite possible to do. But the rest of the equipment is really useful. Say, an on -board computer with a convenient control panel on the steering wheel. Only three buttons on the left knitting needle. But, without removing the hands from the steering wheel, even a 2-zone climate control can be controlled. What is not the Ai-darer, only simpler and much cheaper? None of the classmates have such a system. Rain and illumination sensors, electric power planting, built-in CD changer all this makes the optimal touring even more convenient.
As an option for such machines, you can order bi-xenon headlights or armchairs with leather trim and electric drive. It will turn out almost a premium sedan. But you can buy two more types of bodies. The surcharge for hatchback and station wagon is quite adequate to their practicality 16 and 25 thousand rubles. respectively.
In the cabin, even the basic version is a complete set of backlight lamps
The noble leather-tone finish is laid only versions of sport, but there is a convenient retractable armrest already in optimal turlah
It is a pity that parking and alarms are available only in the expensive version of the sport. The launch system without a key is combined only with a 2.5-liter engine. Of course, some equipment can be installed at the dealer. But other people's wires certainly will not make the car more reliable.
In principle, sport is not much more expensive than Turoring 56,000 rubles. The six, already claiming a kind of sports image, are very ongoing such versions of aerodynamic bumers and 18-inch discs on low-profile tires. The adaptive xenon headlights and the corresponding paraphernalia in the cabin aluminum overlays on pedals, silver-blue halo around the devices, leather-leather chairs will be very useful. However, sports with a 2-liter engine are combined. That is why the surcharge compared to the base is very significant 174,000 rubles. It is more logical to add another 22,000 thousand and take a sport with the most powerful 2.5 liter engine at a very favorable price, get the dynamics to match German sedans with V-shaped 6-cylinder engines.
Finally, Laksher-2.5 is laid a leather interior with an electric drive of the front seats. To such a set and a machine gun, but, alas, it does not combine with a 2.5-liter engine. True, even without it, the price of a top mazda is already biting 900,000 rubles. It is enough to recall that the Passat, and Mondeo, and even Camry have recently significantly fell significantly. The six, on the contrary,, although a little about 1015 thousand in six months, but continues to rise in price. Which undoubtedly interferes with the growth of its popularity.

Outside and inside
What exactly helps the winning appearance. It is sports, but does not scare excessive aggression, where it is necessary and puffy, but not too much, it looks very advantageous against the background of a common conservative severity for the middle class.
Only sports has the opposite side. Special suspension settings, streamlined body shapes with a low wind resistance coefficient of 0.270.28 are good at high speed. However, take a look at how low the body creeps above the ground. Low thresholds and bumpers, wheels of only 4550 percent profile on our roads in any case can not be called an advantage. To park, for example, next to the curbs should be with the greatest caution.
As you can see, outwardly the sedan (left) from the much more functional hatchback differs slightly
Dynamic forms were reflected in the convenience of planting on the sofa. The falling line of the roof dashingly means a low doorway: in order to sit in the back seat, you will have to show a certain flexibility. But the sofa of six is \u200b\u200bone of the most spacious in the classroom. Yes, and very convenient: the correct tilt of the back, the edge of the pillow is prudently raised up from it, you will not slide on the long journey.
However, the station wagon has a roof line almost 5 cm higher. Sitting on the gallery in it is much more convenient. Yes, and the appearance of the appearance of Mazda-6-Vegon does not lose at all. If you select the car for the role of family, this is the best choice.
But the buyer of the hatchback must consider that the glass of the fifth door is located almost horizontally. When the sun shines behind, the sofa passengers will certainly bake the back of the head. Order a toning or curtain the problem will be solved.
In addition to the pocket for cards and magazines in the front door, there is a member of the poll
Between the seats a fairly capacious binary box. But how the armrest is not possible to use its lid too low it is located
Even after disconnecting the dynamic stabilization system (DSC OFF button), the Mazda remains predictable and fast in any turn
A glove box is an uncomfortable retractable trough. The magazine is here only in a folded form
Behind the wheel It is a sin to complain to the driver, in whatever body. The creators of the six made sure that he lived easily and the mood was on top.
I open the door of the bulb in the upholstery of the doors illuminate the thresholds. With turning the key on the computer monitor, Hallow's inscription runs. Hello to you, too! The console wins the handles of the radio tape recorder with blue diode light. The laudable friendliness of the car somehow distracts attention from the fact that the display stretched into the narrow line on the front panel is actually overloaded with information. There are climate control data, CD magnetos and on-board computer. Moreover, some indications, such as the time and fuel consumption, occupy the same square centimeters of the screen of the screen. If there were more monitor, there would be no questions. And after all, the six have a large, perhaps a third of the central console, the touch screen. Only such cars are not officially supplied to Russia.
But the ergonomics of landing behind the wheel is almost perfect. The range of adjustments of the chair are enormous for example, back and forth it can be moved as much as 25 cm! And lateral support is very good. The steering wheel moves by 4.5 cm by departure, as much moves along the angle of inclination. Unless a very long -legged driver may need to adjust the angle of inclination of the pillow. But it only has it with electric front seats electric drives. Considering that it is possible to order it for touring only with the skin and xenon, it turns out that 103,000 rubles are not cheap.
In addition, in this case, against the background of leather chorus, some cheapness of some decoration materials becomes more noticeable. The deflectors of the ducts are made of frankly inexpensive plastic, rustic, and even with a small backlash on the axis of the circle of climate control. Of the minuses of the Mazda salon, you can mention by no means an outstanding visibility of back in the sedan and hatchback: the feed is lifted high.
But that’s all. Moreover, after the first kilometers you will probably think about these small nuances. After all, the car is an excellent student in the nomination pleasure from driving.
Governing bodies
1. Block of electric windows. 2. A remote control for mirrors. 3. The external lighting control lever. 4. The wiper control lever. 5. Climate control monitor, CD magnetos and on-board computer. 6. The alarm button. 7. CD magnet. 8. Climate control. 9. The heating buttons of the seats. 10. The cover of an ashtray. 11. The lid of the cup holders.
Dashboard
1. Fuel level indicator. 2. Tachometer. 3. Signal lamps. 4. The indicator of the operating mode of the machine. 5. The odometer and indicator of the outer temperature. 6. Speedometer. 7. The indicator of the temperature of the coolant.
On the roads Even the basic six with a 1.8-liter engine will be able to pleasantly surprise you. Only 120 liters. With. Almost one and a half tons of living weight seemed to be not enough. But the engine captivates with confident traction with idle. Cool, 40 percent, a long rise from the parking lot Mazda took to the second, did not grimaced.
The motor is very cheerful. With an increase in speed under the hood, a characteristic roller wakes up, and acceleration at least to 110120 km/h remains surprisingly alive and vigorous. The clear work of the gearbox, quick, correct reactions to the driver’s actions, a dense suspension, in any turn, an adequate force on the steering wheel of the Japanese again turned out to be a driver with an incendiary character. Only somewhere after 130 km/h, the acceleration does not suffer enough. Only if you need to ride faster, you need to choose a 2-liter motor.
But keep in mind that the 147-horsepower engine gives out everything that is capable of, it needs high speeds. In the mechanical box of such a Mazda-6, one more than six. And not only for the sake of economy, but for the sake of powerful accelerations at intercity speeds. The arrow of the tachometer is in the range of 35 thousand, and the car inspireing-well-assembled pickles gives up to 160170 km/h.
You need to take a version of 2.5 liters even faster. On this, even on a sports route. The machine has a wider adhesion pedal, lowered by 10 mm clearance, wide low -profile tires. You know how to quickly manipulate the μP lever, after 8 seconds Mazda exchange the second hundred. This engine also loves high turns. Only if it is twisting it for all the money, even at 200 km/h it does not fall.
Only fans of the machine do not have to choose: such a six can only be 2-liter. However, this tandem seems to be created for urban life. From a place and kilometers up to 60 per hour, Mazda tears, just hold. The transmissions of one or two steps down will turn on at the right time. In manual mode, the automatic transmission allows you to hang on the selected stage for a long time. Unless on the highway the car is no longer so quick. If at high speed it is to lose up to 4050 km/h, then again to gain the same rubles fifty will not turn out immediately. And the possibilities of a mischievous chassis in turns driving six in the 2.0at version cannot be completely disclosed. For some reason, for some reason, I really do not want to ride a Mazda in a common stream. In addition, it is so much noticeable that the machine, alas, is noisy. Most of all, the rumble of tires on the rough asphalt is especially strongly felt by passengers of the sofa. The rustle of pebbles and sand flying from under the wheels on the thresholds and arches is also heard very clearly.
In general, the Mazda does not like a measured, comfortable rhythm of life. And its dense suspension is perhaps a little harsh. And the sensitive steering wheel reacts nervously to the rut of asphalt roads. Moreover, the lower and wider the tire, the greater the likelihood of loss of stability in the selected course.
Engine
1. Clot of the glass of the glass gunner. 2. Expansion tank of the cooling system. 3. A probe of engine oil level. 4. The cork of the oil -loading neck of the engine. 5. Air filter case. 6. Battery battery.
And without them
Of course, the primer with an ardent beauty is completely contraindicated. In an unloaded state, road clearance is only 13 cm, and the sport is still a centimeter below. Beautiful, powerful bumpers, elegant, painted in the color of the body of the threshold lining can very quickly be scratched and broken. Plastic guides of air flows in front of the front wheels hang even lower. Well, at least they are made of flexible plastic.
The only plus for the sake of aerodynamics the bottom is made almost flat. So, below it is hardly something to tear. Having selected highly profile winter tires, you can still improve geometry. True, the speed of passage of turns will fall. But there is nothing to do.
We load the suitcases
The trunk of the six is \u200b\u200bvery roomy, in addition to two large suitcases, several smaller bags will easily fit in it. True, the sedan has a rather narrow opening of 470 mm. But the depth is as much as 1105 mm. The loops and pneumopores are made so that they do not think of the luggage. In addition, access to the bins is convenient: you can unlock the lock from both the key fob and the button on the outer part of the lid. In the upholstery of the lid, of course, there is a pen.
The hatchback from the point of view of cargo capacity is even more functional. Outwardly, it is almost indistinguishable from the sedan, but the opening of the fifth door is more than impressive. If you fold the back of the sofa, the pillow drops with it below with it. Now at your service is almost perfectly flat in size 1840 x 1040 mm. After loading the door, it is not necessary to clap: it will tightly and reliably attract the closer in the castle.
Folding the back, you will increase the hold length of from 1105 to 1840 mm
The hatchback has the highest opening, and the trunk volume is an impressive 510 liter of only 9 liters less than the station wagon
For storing tools and other trifles under the floor, a plastic pallet is provided
Alas, a full -fledged spare wheel is not supposed to be six. But at the site of the reconciliation, it would fit. And the subwoofer would have enough space
The most successful cargo cargo is a station wagon. The maximum volume of its hold is 50 liters larger than that of the hatchback. Inside there is a larger number of fasteners, the space under the floor is organized. Here, for example, you can remove the curtain when it is not needed.

Safety
Euroncap tests have not yet passed. But the car has everything to achieve excellent results: six pillows with a two -stage filling of frontal, hard, with zones of programmable deformation of the body, traumatic safety pedals and steering wheel. The Japanese also do not forget about the bulbs of light bulbs that all five of the cabin are fastened.
The machine can not only soften the consequences of the accident, but will also fight for its prevention in every way. The anti -lock system with an emergency braking amplifier, which provides a powerful, reliable slowdown, clearly works clearly. The dynamic stabilization system will be useful to lovers to polyghat on a slippery road, avoiding uncontrolled sliding. And custom -made adaptive headlights will help to get more safely in pitch darkness.
Operation, service
The dealer network of Mazda is developing rapidly. There are salons already in 26 cities of Russia. 10 centers operate in Moscow, in St. Petersburg 4. At first, an interval interval per year or 20,000 run was installed on the new product. But since 2008, you will have to go through every 15,000 km. The warranty is still three years or 100,000 km.
Before going to the service, it is better to call several and find out the cost of work and spare parts. Unfortunately, Mazda has no single prices. The change of front pads, for example, will cost 7200 in one center, and in the other 9000 rubles. The prices given in the table include both work and consumables prescribed during maintenance.

Bright, temperamental, with a comfortable, ergonomic salon and a spacious trunk, Mazda-6 can give its owner undoubted pleasure from driving. At the same time, in the touring version for 740840 thousand rubles. And it costs quite adequate money. If she were quieter and softer on the go, there would be no end to her hand and wallet at all.
