Mazda's SUVs are so popular that there is a new Mazda sedan - AutoReview.nl

According to Japanese Best Car Mazda is developing a new generation of the Mazda 6. Rumor has it that the Hiroshima brand is not going for a traditional sedan, but for a four-door sedan with a coupe design. To color even further outside the lines, the car will reportedly have a six-in-line combustion engine and rear-wheel drive. That sounds like music to our ears!

Success of SUVs offers financial scope

Mazda would like to develop the new 6, because the Mazda CX-60 and the Mazda CX-90 are a great sales success. That sounds crazy, but that is why there is financial space to develop a new sedan. If you are very enthusiastic now, you have to be patient: according to sources, the introduction date is after 2025.

Vision Coupe

If Mazda designs the new 6, we sincerely hope that it will resemble the Vision Coupe that the brand showed at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2017. This is a sleek four-door coupe with a minimalist but luxurious appearance.

Mazda boss previously denied

However, history teaches us that we should take rumors like this with a large grain of salt. Mazda CEO Joachim Kunz already referred to the realm of fables in 2022. He admitted at the time that it would be 'very nice' to have a sedan with rear-wheel drive and a six-cylinder, but stated that Mazda has no plans for this because SUVs are simply more popular.

Sedan private lease

Even though SUVs are the most popular cars of the moment, there remains room for the traditional sedan. Private leasing is an excellent way to drive a nice sedan for a fixed monthly amount. A sedan private lease you can also contact us via Auto Review:
