The 2018 Mazda6 Signature is a beautiful mid-size sedan with impressive value and performance

The luxury look of the Mazda6 doesn’t match its low price, starting at only $23,000 to a top price of $32,750 for the Signature trim.  The Mazda6 feels much more expensive, I think it is a bargain.

The 2018 Mazda6 Signature is the top trim level of the Mazda 6 lineup and it comes with many improvements in appearance and driving performance. I enjoy the enhanced sophisticated beautiful exterior look, and the matching luxury details of its interior. As I enter the cabin of the Mazda6 I can feel the excitement and pleasure of driving a beautiful and fresh luxury car. The luxury interior is enhanced with new seats with high-density, vibration-absorbing urethane foam to improve comfort in the cabin. Thicker and stronger steel in the floor for less noise inside the cabin. 

The Mazda6 Signature is more luxurious than most mid-size sedans on the same price range. This is a great alternative for buyers of sedans who want luxury premium style at a lower price.

In general in most Mazda vehicles the top trims Grand Touring or Signature models have been selling more than twice as expected by Mazda, giving inspiration to create more luxury cars, including this flagship sedan Mazda6, receiving improvements and a more luxury Signature trim level on the new 2018 version,

It features a new turbocharged 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that delivers 250 horsepower and 310 pounds per foot of torque.

The new suspension has been completely re-engineered for better driving performance. The Signature is only available with a six-speed automatic transmission. The only model available with manual transmission is the entry base model, the Sport.

The 2018 Mazda6 Signature is equipped with 19-inch wheels, automatic headlamps, automatic windshield wipers, LED fog lights, automatic high beams, a rear spoiler, steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, a speed-warning road sign reader and leather upholstery.
