2018 Mazda Mazda6 Touring: Sophisticated Design for the Modern Professional

Imagine finishing a productive day at your office in Aurora, IL, and stepping into a vehicle that feels less like a tool and more like a reward. The 2018 Mazda6 Touring is designed for those who appreciate the finer details of a premium sedan while navigating the rhythms of suburban life. Whether you are heading home through the historic streets of Lockport, IL or meeting friends for dinner, this sedan provides a presence that is both elegant and athletic, perfectly suited for the professional communities of the western suburbs.

Performance & Capability

Under the hood of this Mazda6 is the efficient and responsive SKYACTIV-G 2.5L I-4 gasoline direct injection engine. This powerplant is engineered with cylinder deactivation, a smart technology that shuts down two of the four cylinders when cruising at steady speeds to maximize efficiency without sacrificing the 187HP available when you need to merge onto the expressway. Paired with the SKYACTIV-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission, the driving experience is fluid and intuitive. The Lock-up transmission and Overdrive capabilities ensure that your highway stretches are as smooth as possible.

The chassis is built for engagement, featuring an Independent front suspension with struts and a Multi-link rear suspension. This setup provides a balanced, composed ride that handles the winding roads near the Des Plaines River with precision. Drivers can further tailor their experience using the Driver selectable drivetrain mode, allowing for a more spirited response when the mood strikes. With an impressive 35 highway MPG, this Front Wheel Drive sedan is an ideal partner for long-distance commuting or weekend getaways, offering a refined balance of power and economy.

Technology & Connectivity

In todays fast-paced environment, staying connected is a necessity, not a luxury. This Mazda6 Touring features a sophisticated 8 inch primary display with touchscreen capabilities, serving as the hub for your digital life. With Smart device integration, you can seamlessly mirror your phones interface via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, allowing for safe access to your favorite navigation apps, podcasts, and contacts.

The Mazda Connect system includes Voice activated audio controls and Steering wheel mounted audio controls, ensuring your hands stay on the wheel while you manage your media. For those who prefer wireless options, Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity and Bluetooth wireless audio streaming come standard. With 3 USB ports and Aha/Pandora/Stitcher internet radio capability, every passenger can stay charged and entertained during the drive. The Digital/analog instrumentation display provides clear, concise information at a glance, keeping you informed without distraction.

Comfort & Interior

The cabin of the Mazda6 Touring is a masterclass in ergonomic design and material quality, featuring Black Leatherette front seat upholstery and a Leatherette upholstered dashboard. The 3-level heated reclining front sport bucket seats offer personalized comfort, ensuring a warm start on chilly Illinois mornings. The Power driver seat with 6-way directional controls and Manual driver seat lumbar support allows you to find the perfect driving position for your commute from the surrounding suburban areas.

Passenger comfort is equally prioritized with Dual-zone front climate control and Rear under seat climate control ducts, allowing everyone to travel in their preferred environment. The interior is accented with Metal-look interior accents and a Leather and metal-look steering wheel, elevating the aesthetic of the cabin. Practicality is woven throughout, from the 60-40 folding rear seats that expand your cargo options to the Advanced Keyless Entry with hands-free access and push button start, which simplifies your entry and exit. Even the small details, like the Fade interior courtesy lights and Remote activated perimeter approach lighting, contribute to an atmosphere of thoughtful luxury.

Safety & Driver Assistance

Safety is paramount in the Mazda6, which comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver assistance technologies. The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) is an Adaptive cruise control system that maintains a set distance from the vehicle ahead, significantly reducing fatigue during heavy traffic. For peace of mind in busy parking lots or while changing lanes, the Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems act as an extra set of eyes.

The vehicle is also equipped with Smart Brake Support forward collision mitigation and a Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) to help prevent accidents before they happen. In the event of a sudden stop, the 4-wheel disc brakes with Brake assist and Electronic parking brake with Automatic brake hold provide confident stopping power. The Rear mounted camera offers a clear view of what is behind you, making tight maneuvers in urban settings much simpler. With 6 airbags and an Occupant sensing airbag system, this sedan is engineered to protect what matters most.

Exterior & Design

Wrapped in the stunning Soul Red Crystal Metallic Paint, this Mazda6 Touring demands attention. This specific Tri-coat paint is known for its depth and luster, highlighting the sedan's "Kodo" design language. The front profile is defined by a Black grille with chrome surround and LED low and high beam headlights featuring Auto-leveling and Auto on/off headlight control. The Auto high-beam headlights automatically adjust to oncoming traffic, providing optimal visibility without blinding other drivers.

The side profile is accented by Chrome side window trim and 19 x 7.5-inch gray aluminum wheels, which give the vehicle a planted, athletic stance. A First-row sliding and tilting glass sunroof allows natural light to fill the cabin, while Light tinted windows provide privacy and heat reduction. Functional elements like Turn signal indicator in door mirrors and Rain sensing wipers are integrated seamlessly into the design, ensuring that beauty and utility go hand in hand.
