The all-new Mazda6 Sedan was unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show last week and here we have some snaps of the stunning new motor.
Following on from the Mazda CX-5, the all-new Mazda6 is the second of a new generation of Mazda vehicles which will adopt the full range of SKYACTIV technology and the “KODO – Soul of Motion” design language – which is kind of futuristic looking, don’t you think?
The i-ELOOP is Mazda’s unique brake energy regeneration system, which begins charging a capacitor the moment the driver takes his foot off the accelerator, and it makes its debut on the new Mazda6. Electricity stored in the capacitor can then be used to power electric components throughout the car.

In freeing the engine from much of the duty of providing electricity to these components, more fuel energy goes directly to powering the car resulting in further improvements in fuel economy. In addition, a variety of advanced active safety technologies have been adopted. It’s all very technical, but it really is changing the face of production cars for the better.
Mazda Ireland has not yet announced the prices of the all-new Mazda6 and instead they’ve decided to tease us with the images above. Deliveries are expected sometime in early 2013, so we’ll have to wait a little longer before we get our hands on one of these for a spin.
