2016 Mazda6 i Grand Touring

Recently I had the opportunity to drive the 2016 Mazda6 i Grand Touring for a week. She’s all things beautiful and sleek, and not just a pretty face. This new 2016 Mazda6 i Grand Touring from Mazda was luxurious. The white leather interior, fully equipped with every feature I didn’t even know I could have including:

  • Power sliding glass moonroof
  • 19″ alloy wheels with dark silver finish
  • Rear lip spoiler
  • LED headlights
  • Auto on/off headlights
  • Auto-dimming driver’s side mirror
  • Steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters
  • Navigation system
  • Heated front seats
  • Leather-trimmed seats
  • 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar adjustment and memory settings
  • 6-way power-adjustable passenger’s seat
  • Bose® Centerpoint® Surround Sound Audio System with 11 speakers (including woofer)
  • SiriusXM Satellite Radio
  • Smart City Brake Support

The Bose Centerpoint Surround Sound Audio System with 11 speakers including a woofer was mint. I can’t believe the sound coming from such a little space. I’m all about the sound, so a car has to have great sound. And this car for the price is excellent (the Grand Touring package starts at $30,195). All thought features in a mid-size sedan that you can basically race with (but won’t because would be illegal and uncool for about $32K).

2016 Mazda6 i Grand Touring
The MAZDA6 Grand Touring features the 184-hp, 2.5L SKYACTIV-G DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine with VVT and SKYACTIV-Drive 6-Speed automatic transmission with sport mode. It handles beautifully, corners like it was meant to be a race car, and still get mileage better than you expect from a sedan with this much power: EPA-estimated mileage city/highway (mpg): 26/38 (28/40 with Technology Package).
For me, multiple outlets and charging USB ports is huge. I’m a traveler and I have kids. Done. Those things are important. Also, a good navigation system. I love the vehicle I own, overall, but I despise it’s navigation system and the sync. It’s a 2014 and the system was a top of the line at the time we bought it (new, mind you). But I never use it, because even new, it sucked. Oh they talked it up, but no. This one was easy to use, easy to see, it told me where to turn at just the right time (not too early, not too late). The console had a good amount of space without being crowded. Ample trunk space for luggage, groceries, or whatever. If I only had two kids, I would absolutely consider this car.
