 2013 Mazda6 Mule Caught Testing Skyactive Technologies [Spy Photos] |
|
Jan 27, 2012 - 5:21 PM - by AutoGuide.com

Out photographers have snapped several spy photos of the upcoming Mazda6 undergoing testing in the frozen European north. Underneath this current-generation body there's plenty of new equipment to evaluate, from an all-new Skyactiv chassis and suspension system, right down to the engine and a start-stop system mated to an innovative regenerative braking system.
The next-gen Mazda6 will look nothing like this mule, which sports a chopped-up body similar to the prototypes we've already driven. Instead, it will share the swooping lines of the Takeri Concept car, unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Mazda has confirmed north America will get a diesel engine in early 2013, but hasn't confirmed which model it will arrive in yet.
Look for the debut of the new Mazda6 next fall at the Paris Motor Show.

2013 Mazda 6 to Debut at 2012 Paris Auto Show |
|

According to reports, the all-new Mazda 6 will be unveiled at the upcoming 2012 Paris Auto Show.
We have already seen a solid hint at the styling of the new Mazda 6, with the Takeri concept (pictured above) which the automaker revealed at the Tokyo Motor Show this past December. The new production version of the 6 will probably share some of the major styling of the Takeri, with maybe a few small changes.
The Takeri was built on an all new light weight platform, and features Mazda's Skyactiv technologies to inrease fuel economy. Mazda has engineered a new 2.0-liter 4-cylinder (as seen in the 2012 Mazda3), however, the Takeri concept made use of the brand's new Skyactiv diesel engine, capable of producing 165 hp and over 300 lb-ft of torque.
Mazda has said it will offer a diesel engine in North America in the near future, but has yet to confirm if it will arrive in the new 6, or perhaps the CX-5.

Mazda Demio Smart Stylish Looks, Well, Smart and Stylish: 2012 Tokyo Auto Salon |

One of numerous Mazdas on display at this year's Tokyo Auto Salon, the Demio (sold as the Mazda2 in North America) Smart Stylish, delivers as promised with a classy look that adds some luxury appeal to this sub-compact.
Based on the new ultra-efficient Skyactiv 1.3-liter model, the Smart Stylish gets a complete aerodynamic overhaul, with new front and rear bumpers as well as side skits and some large BBS wheels. Bringing the package together is a lowered suspension.
