2008 Mazda6 range


Mazda has revealed the Australian range and pricing of their new Mazda6 mid-sized car which has just gone on sale in Mazda showrooms Australia-wide.

Available in three versions (sedan, hatch and wagon) and four-trim levels, prices start at $29,740 for the manual Mazda6 'Limited' sedan and up to $46,910 for the automatic Mazda6 Luxury Sports hatch.




Equipped with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine developing 125 kW at 6000rpm and 226 Nm at 4000rpm, the new model makes a paltry 3 kW more than its 2.3-litre predecessor but claimed fuel economy shows an improvement of 4.5% thus reducing the average quoted fuel consumption to between 8.4L/100km and 8.9L/100km, depending on the model.

The Australian Mazda6 line-up and prices are as follows:

Mazda 6 Limited sedan (manual): $29,740
Mazda 6 Limited sedan (auto): $31,800
Mazda 6 Classic sedan (manual): $33,880

Mazda Furai Concept video

Mazda Furai Concept


A while back, we were green with envy when we reported that the guys (well, one guy) over at Inside Line were invited to jump into the cockpit for a couple of hot laps around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in the Mazda Furai Concept.

We were told that it sounded "sensational at full cry" with the three-rotor Mazda 20B rotary engine's exhaust note "reverberating off the concrete pit wall like an entire field of endurance racers".

Could it possibly be that good?

Yes, yes and YES! Anyway, we'll let you be the judge with the following video clip.
