Mazda’s first mainstream electric vehicle, the Mazda 6e, is today available for pre-order at Mazda dealers across Australia offering cutting-edge technology, sophisticated styling and exceptional value for money for Australian customers.

Ushering in the next evolution of Mazda’s signature design philosophy, “Kodo: Soul of Motion”, the Mazda 6e adopts an ‘Authentic Modern’ approach featuring smooth and flowing lines that give it a striking, yet sophisticated presence. The long roofline and short-deck coupé silhouette create an athletic look, while maintaining the functionality of a five-door hatchback.

Perched on a generously sized 2,895mm wheelbase, the Mazda 6e’s minimalist five-seat cabin is open and inviting, heavily influenced by the Japanese concept of “ma” – the beauty of empty space. The seamless integration of advanced technologies and Mazda’s signature craftsmanship enhance the driving experience, while making all occupants feel at ease.

The Mazda 6e will exclusively offer a RWD electric motor, that delivers up to190 kW of power and a maximum of 290 Nm of torque. The system offers a frugal combined energy consumption of 15.9kWh/100km, and boasts a WLTP driving range of up to 560 km from the 78 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery.

Equipped with a CCS Type-2 charging port, the Mazda 6e is capable of DC charging from 30 – 80 percent in as little as fifteen minutes.

The All-Electric Mazda 6e is offered in two generously equipped model grades; comprising GT and the flagship Atenza, both of which offer an irrefutable value proposition.
