Very Nice Sedan

Car has superb comfort, ergonomics and is fun to drive. I've had no problem with the infotainment system though sometimes it is a little slow, but overall nothing to worry about. It plays from USB very well, and my Samsung Android Note8 syncs fine with the system. The 2.5 turbo engine is very smooth and has more than enough power. The car is very quite on the highway and the radar cruise works very well. Steering feels great once I shut off the Lane Assist which can be somewhat annoying. Many features are customizable through the infotainment from the safety features to lighting, to door lock operation, etc. It's nice to tailor the car how you like. Overall the car has a feeling of high quality and leaves me wanting for nothing. Performance is very good and the gas mileage on a recent road trip was 37mpg, and that wasn't highway driving, but on state roads with elevational changes and no traffic. Better than I expected, no doubt. 1 Year Update: Car has maintained my original observations with a couple of updates. The gas mileage has averaged 30.6 mpg. I wish the infotainment screen would display the entire listing in XM. It cuts off part of the song title. I had Android Auto installed at no cost through Mazda. It is a nice addition, but I more often than not just use the Mazda system for most functions still. Overall great car and I still enjoy it even more than they day I purchased it. It has held up perfectly so far.

I have had my 2018 Grand Touring Reserve for just7up under a month now and I absolutely love the car. I have actually gone against the current trend of people moving out of sedans into SUVs as I did just the opposite. My wife was never comfortable with the size of our Lexus RX and since we no longer have a large dog to haul around we made what some may consider to be a rather dramatic downgrade in size, luxury and quality. We purposely went smaller, but let me assure you this new Mazda holds its own very well in terms of quality and luxury. The Signature model of this car is available for those who desire even more luxury. The car drives beautifully, is noticeably quieter than the Lexus, has more standard safety and comfort options, and is a bargain price wise. It's still early but so far I have not had a single regret over the trade we made and, perhaps best of all, my wife loves the car also. An update: Now, after owning this car for 3 years and 30,000 miles I don't believe I would change a single thing about my initial review. I still love the car. We have taken 3 road trips of 3-4 thousand miles and the car is a joy to drive. Mileage is consistently in the low to mid 30 mpg range and the seats are supportive and comfortable for long range driving. The only regret I have about this car is Mazda has made the decision to discontinue it after the 2021 model year. [

Fun car to drive!

I traded in my 2006 Acura TL for the 2018 signature series mazda6 and am a first time Mazda owner. I was looking for a sedan that would be fun to drive but would not break my bank. I think mazda6 signature 6 with the 2.5L turbo is a very good choice for that. I am impressed with the interior and exterior design and also the practical aspect of this car being a family sedan. I like that it comes with a lot of the latest technology both in terms of safety and entertainment. I have had this car for a little over three weeks now and so far I am liking it. The torque that car has is really good but a four wheel drive option would be better with this much power. Couple of bugs/defects? I have noticed so far: The lane keep assist and another safety feature that depend on the front windshield mounted camera stops working when the car is sitting in the sun for some time and as you start driving it gives a message is that these safety features are disabled. This was not a good thing to find out specially because out here in phoenix during the summer this will be a constant issue, the dealer did not mention this to me prior to purchasing and later they said that this is an industry wide issue (not true for all vehicle, maybe some). As the interior of the car cools down the safety features are supposed to be working again but the message sometimes does not go away until you re start the car. Also I am noticing that the thermostat that measures the external temperature gives out a reading which is quite a bit off (around 5 degrees). I plan on contacting mazda customer service abut these issues and see what they have to say. Over all I am enjoing this vehicle so far.

I wish the car indicated “Signature” or 2.5T. Get rid of the skyactive logo—nobody cares or knows what it is. Averaging 25mpg in suburbs Camera resolution is terrible. Looks like the camera on my old Moto Razr phone. Good pickup speed even w/o Sport mode Great trunk size. Ventilated seats are nice Heated steering wheel is only warm at 3 and 9 o’clock. Why not all the way around? Signature trim should come with remote start Navigation takes too long to load after starting car. Sometimes when backing up, you don’t get the option for the 360 view. The normal backup view does not have the dynamic indicator lines, only the backup view on the smaller 360 view mode. When you turn the car off, the auto up windows do not work (ie before opening a door). You have to hold the whole time. When you turn the car off, the sky light won’t close at all (ie before opening a door). You have to turn the car back on. For some reason, if water is on your car from previous rain, a significant amount falls into the front windows if open. When raining the front sensor goes crazy and thinks you are close to an object. (False warnings).

Car is beautiful and a pleasure to drive. Compared it to Accord and Camry and liked it the best overall. grand touring reserve that has so many great features, is comfortable and fun to drive! And Apple car play is so awesome, displays your phone on the screen for maps and apps, music system great, heat and heated seats front and back, and safety features are very up to date and helpful.
