Numbers shown in conventional units are converted from these values. Rounding Off • Converted values are rounded off to the same number of places as the SI unit value. For example, if the SI unit value is 17.2 and the value after conversion is 37.84, the converted value will be rounded off to 37.8. Upper and Lower Limits • When the data indicates upper and lower limits, the converted values are rounded down if the SI unit value is an upper limit and rounded up if the SI unit value is a lower limit. Therefore, converted values for the same SI unit value may differ after conversion. For example, consider 2.7 kgf/cm2 in the following specifications: 210—260 kPa {2.1—2.7 kgf/cm2, 30—38 psi} 270—310 kPa {2.7—3.2 kgf/cm2, 39—45 psi} • The actual converted values for 2.7 kgf/cm2 are 265 kPa and 38.4 psi. In the first specification, 2.7 is used as an upper limit, so the converted values are rounded down to 260 and 38. In the second specification, 2.7 is used as a lower limit, so the converted values are rounded up to 270 and 39.

During its rigorous development, some 400 Mazda engineers subjected crucial MAZDA 6 components to testing that simulated 10 years of extreme use. Then, to further prove its reliability, they drove a fleet of MAZDA 6 test cars for a total of more than one million miles.* In fact, by the time you see a MAZDA 6, it will have survived a demanding gauntlet of quality control standards that are among the strictest in the industry. Hundreds upon hundreds of individual inspections are conducted by an army of Mazda inspectors. Each one empowered to reject any part, fit, detail or component that fails to measure up. Because from the smallest interior switch to the virtually flawless exterior finish, quality is an obsession at Mazda. Which is why, as you lose yourself in the pure driving fun of a MAZDA 6, you can be confident that Mazda durability and attention to detail will be there for you. Today. Tomorrow. And many years down the road. Zoom-Zoom. * Test fleet of preproduction MAZDA 6 vehicles covered over one million miles during product development testing.

  • 2007 Mazdaspeed6: Taking Zoom-Zoom to the Extreme
    For Immediate Release Contacts: Jeremy Barnes, Mazda North American Operations, 949.727.6844 Danica Laub, Mazda North American Operations, 949.727.6220 Tim Gilman, Mazda Information Bureau, 949.223.2313 2007 MAZDASPEED6: TAKING ZOOM-ZOOM TO THE EXTREME Introduced in 2006, the MAZDASPEED6 is the fastest-accelerating, best-handling and most-advanced sports sedan Mazda has ever built. With its unique 2.3-liter direct-injection turbo-charged four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission and a high- tech Active Torque-Split All-Wheel Drive system, the MAZDASPEED6 has all the performance and passion of a specialist rally replica, but with the refinement of a luxury sedan. Mazda’s Zoom-Zoom philosophy is applied to every aspect of the MAZDASPEED6, from a subtly aggressive bodykit to a cabin that’s been created especially for the sporting driver. But the MAZDASPEED6 is not just about speed: it’s an extremely unique balance of muscle car performance wrapped in the skin of a sensual, aesthetically pleasing design. The MAZDASPEED6 offers a host of creature comforts that the “rally replicas” could only hope for, such as comfortable and supportive seats with available leather trim, standard six-speaker AM/FM/CD BOSE® audio sound system featuring a six-disc CD changer, standard xenon headlights and available moonroof and DVD-based navigation system. “As our premium model, the MAZDASPEED6 reflects the company’s most advanced performance capabilities – from horsepower to cornering performance to braking, the MAZDASPEED6 is Mazda performance on show,” said Eiji Oyama, MAZDASPEED6 vehicle line manager for Mazda North American Operations.

As part of its mission to reduce fatalities and injuries, since model year 2001 NHTSA has included rollover information as part of its NCAP ratings. One of the primary means of assessing rollover risk is the static stability factor (SSF), a measurement of a vehicle’s resistance to rollover. The higher the SSF, the lower the rollover risk.

  • 2004-2005 MAZDA6 Mazda Added Two New Models to the Mazda6
    2004-2005 MAZDA6 Mazda added two new models to the Mazda6 lineup in the course of the 2004 model year to bolster the sedan, the Mazda6 Sport hatchback sedan and Mazda6 Sport Wagon. The station wagon comes with a V6 engine whereas the other two models can also be ordered with a four-cylinder engine. All three models are available in GS or GT trim. Also new for 2005 is a six-speed transmission, which replaces the five-speed with the V6 engine. It reduces fuel consumption by 0.3 litres in city driving and 0.2 litres on the highway. Interior and trunk The front seats are relatively easy to reach. For average to tall people, the seats are marginally comfortable because the backrest is too low, with the top section on shoulder-blade level, and the cushion is short and narrow. People who fit the seats find them very comfortable, with good side support. The tilt-telescopic steering column helps achieve a very good driving position for all but short drivers, who may bump their knees on the steering column. It is easier to get in to the back than to get out. The backseat provides comfortable seating for two adults. Foot room under the front seats is a bit tight, and head and leg room are limited for tall people. Each section of the 60/40 seatback folds automatically when you pull the corresponding handle in the trunk. The sedan has a big trunk with a rather narrow opening. The Sport version’s hatch opens wide, and the Sport Wagon’s rear door provides easy access to the roomy cargo area.
