Now available from Shires Mazda on Deanegate Avenue in Taunton, the 18-strong line-up of Mazda6 models features refreshed exterior and interior styling, additional equipment and a range of significant technical enhancements that improve fuel economy by up to 6.4 percent and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 6.1 percent. For 2011, customers in Taunton are offered a choice of two body styles (hatchback and estate), six engines (three petrol and three diesel) and four equipment levels – S, TS, TS2, and Sport – each highly specified within its price band.“The hugely popular Mazda6 range was given a make-over that was much more than a cosmetic exercise, last year,” comments Don Ricciardi, Dealer Principal, Shires Mazda. “While the car has more aggressive front styling, dynamic and engaging driving characteristics remain at the heart of the 2011 model. The engines, suspension and steering have been fine-tuned, enhancing refinement. Mazda6 is among the best-in-class for CO2 emissions and its ownership experience is underpinned by reduced costs and Mazda’s outstanding build quality and reliability.”
A key customer benefit of Mazda6 is the choice of strongly performing engines. The petrol line up features a 1.8-litre 120ps unit, the 2.0-litre DISI engine delivering 155ps and a 2.5-litre 170ps unit for the range-topping Sport. Diesel buyers can select from three 2.2-litre engines with 129, 163 or 185ps outputs – depending on model. Automatic transmission is available on three petrol models.

The 2011 Mazda6 achieves average fuel economy improvements of 3.2 and 4.1 percent (petrol/diesel) and average CO2 emissions reductions of 4.4 and 4.8 percent (petrol/diesel), so the lower power 2.2-litre, 129ps diesel hatchback now has a CO2 rating of just 138g/km. These improvements move many models into a lower Road Fund Licence band, while improved fuel economy, lower RFL and reduced Benefit In Kind costs all offer buyers significant savings.
Enhanced equipment for the 2011 Mazda6 encompasses ‘smart’ turn indicators and Emergency Stop Signalling System (ESS) for all models. Additional items moving up the range include: rear spoiler and dual-zone climate control air-conditioning (TS upwards); 17-inch alloy wheels, front & rear parking sensors and Hill Hold Assist (TS2 upwards), and swivel-type AFS front lights to better illuminate bends in the road plus 18-inch alloys and a BOSE audio system (Sport).
Full leather trim is now available as an option on all TS2 and Sport models (priced at £1,200 and £750, respectively), and includes powered driver and front passenger seats with a memory function on the driver’s seat.
