2017 Mazda6 updates and features

The flagship vehicle in the Mazda lineup returns for an impressive 2017 run. One of the most fun-to-drive midsize sedans adds more premium refinement and continues to provide consumers with versatility, practicality, style, and excellent performance. More 2017 Mazda6 updates and features are on the way!



What’s new on the 2017 Mazda6

Like the 2017 Mazda3, the 2017 Mazda6 adds all-new G-Vectoring Control (GVC) in the North American market. GVC technology helps improve new SKYACTIV®-VEHICLE DYNAMICS that integrate control of the transmission, engine, chassis, and body to enhance the feel of the Mazda6.

How exactly does GVC benefit drivers? GVC is able to benefit drivers by providing more control over their cars. You’re able to navigate with more confidence since engineers at Mazda have lessened the need for steering correction and have enhanced sound insulation, providing a more enjoyable ride.
