2023 Mazda 6 Touring Review - You Don't Need An SUV |
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The SUV has become ubiquitous in city streets across Malaysia, utilised by families who really don't need the raised driving position but enjoy the sense of superiority over other road users. The excuse is practicality, but if that was really the case, why has the estate car or wagon bodystyle fallen by the wayside?
Mazda has emerged as one of very few carmakers in Malaysia who maintain an offering of an 'extended' saloon, and the Mazda 6 Touring has been updated once again for the 2024 model year. With a comprehensive suite of active safety kit (finally) alongside the already refined presentation, we spend a week with the Mazda 6 Touring to understand why exactly the SUV is unnecessary.

Great review as always. I got the saloon early of this year and been so happy with it. Back then the price was still at 21x ish. Considering what I get in return with 5 years Free Service & Warranty, it's a great value. It's just so special and you're right, it's rare. Makes it even more special.
My absolute dream car.
I totally agree that this hits the spot compared to an SUV. I cannot accept body rolls on taller vehicles. Thank you Aiman, great review as usual!
Great review - as a Mazda6 touring owner I completely agree - it's a very nice car to drive. I think the petrols are a bit down on power. My 2017 2.2 diesel (220 bhp / 500 nm) runs perfectly, both on motorway and B-roads. I just got wireless Android Auto from an easy-to-install adapter, so infotainment feels more modern now - I rarely use the original mzd-connect software, but the mzd-dial + buttons are perfect. No fumbling around with touch-screen. Great !

This is the only estate that doesn't make one look like a 70 year old. Mazda did a thing with the 6. And you, sir, are among the best car reviewers on the internet.
as mazda owner, i do agree 99.5% with aiman... another 0.5% is the car is eye-catching design .. for me, the great exterior design, combine with modern minimalist elegant design on the interior plus with great handling,good power..
Very well presented. My new favourite presenter.
These is the best reviewer in Msia. His English is soo immaculate, really enjoy watching his reviews. Kudos bro….superbly done & u might convince me with this mazda estate. I hv always prefer something different vs the msian’s crowd. These mazda estate is currently in my shortlist to replace my 6 y/o passat B8.
homicidal squirrel. :D Great review as usual Aiman. Interesting D-segment option to think about. The only estate in the class.
Terbaik aiman ... sometime I hope how about buat dwi bhs @ bhs campur English malay dlm penyampaian ...pasti best
I have the 2021 Mazda 3 but I will like to trade it for the Mazda 6
Is there a 12V outlet in the boot?
Is it possible to replace the space saver tyre with a full size tyre? Looks like there might be some space to. For a car that's designed for road trips, a full size spare tyre is a no brainer...
This and the volvo v90 is my dream car
OMG I thought it was dead. I hope this comes to America!
Great car, would be my first choice the M 6 if I had to buy a new car. Please please do something about that background noise (music?)
Fantastic review as always 👍🏼 thinking of getting an early batch of 2013/14 model used , what do you think?

The seats are less comfortable, the dashboard is different, but mainly you won’t have the GVC and upgraded gearbox modules which makes the car more drivable. Try looking at the models post 2017 onwards.
Finally Mazda Malaysia! A Touring
Could you please review and compare this with SUBARU Outback? It is a car that I thought is ideal for family and my dream car to own.
The sedan looks better in my opinion , also , sedan has way better rear leg room with its longer wheelbase... gorgeous car nevertheless
Great review! How would you compare this with a cx5?

It's about the same for cabin & cargo space, but definitely has greater agility & refinement.

Cabin is much nicer than CX5, also drive way better and has lower consumption. No brain to buy SUV.

Even in KL hard to come by. Got mine at the Glenmarie showroom but have yet to see the IPM models be available for test drive since.
SUV with AWD. Space, and still survive during flash flood. On a practical note, unless you do east west highway to use the driving dynamics, traffic jams will be a problem. Then visibility is also a problem when you everyone around you is using a SUV.
World class presenter, best in Malaysia.

Prefer wagon over saloon version.
isn't the wagon lighter, shorter and shorter wheelbase than the sedan?
@jonchai10

Heavier due to the added roofing over the boot. Yes, shorter wheelbase.
Most people in KV buy suv / tall vehicle because of frequent flash flood 😂
Wagon are better then suv …
😅😢wish Both P1&P2 make Wagon cars
Mazda has some pretty good cars but the Mazda 6 is getting old. The current Mazda 6 model is easily more than 12 years old. Normal Japanese cars will be totally upgraded every 6 years or so. It looks like Mazda is not able to update the model since it is quite a small car company as compared against Toyota or Honda. So the constant face-lift.
You need SUVs to survive the floods. This wagon won't survive.
Lovely car but the asking price is wayyy above its punching weight.
