Mazda continues lightweight strategy with all-new Mazda6

Posted on 09/07/2007 under: Sedans/Saloons, Mazda

At next week’s Frankfurt Motor Show, Mazda Motor Corporation will underscore its “Sustainable Zoom-Zoom” vision for developing technologies that have less impact on the environment. The world premiere of the all-new Mazda6 will take centre stage and this latest model continues Mazda’s lightweight strategy. Despite its increased dimensions and more comprehensive equipment, it is slightly lighter, uses less fuel and produces less CO2 than its predecessor.

The all-new Mazda2, now on sale in the UK was the first model to break the upward spiral of ever-heavier cars. It is also lighter, more frugal and produces far lower CO2 emissions than the previous model. In Frankfurt, Mazda will be introducing the diesel version of the all-new Mazda2.

The best proof of Mazda’s daring, innovative spirit is the rotary engine. Mazda will celebrate the 40th anniversary of this unique technology in Frankfurt with the presentation of a Special Edition RX-8.

The Frankfurt Motor Show press days are on the 11th and 12th September. The public days are the 15th – 23rd September. Mazda will unveil the all–new Mazda6 during its press conference on stand A08 in Hall 3.1, at 13.45 on Tuesday, 11th September.
