The G25 Sport models have the smallest price increase – $300 – because they are the model that received the fewest upgrades.

All of Mazda6 2023 models get an updated power steering system, while the G25 Touring and later get wireless Apple CarPlay for their switch-over 8.0-inch MZD Connect touchscreen infotainment system.

The G35 GT SP and G35 Atenza models feature the brand’s Cruising and Traffic Support semi-autonomous driving assistance.

Mazda says the six-speed automatic transmission has also been updated to “provide a more direct gearshift response and enjoyable driving experience”; while “the throttle pedal response has been increased to provide a more direct and intuitive connection to the engine’s torque”.

The 20th Anniversary Special Edition, which celebrates two decades and more than 144,000 Mazda 6 units sold in Australia, is based on the G35 Atenza and is available only in Artisan Red and Rhodium White metallic paint colors.

Other standout exterior features include 20th Anniversary badging and glossy silver 19-inch alloy wheels.

Inside, the Mazda 6 20th Anniversary Special Edition offers a brown interior nicely decorated with Leganu suede and Nappa leather. The front headrests are also embossed with the 20th Anniversary logo.

While the Mazda 6 is now discontinued in the US, Canada and the UK, Mazda Australia says it’s still an “important model” here. It is still unclear how long it will last, however, as it is now more than a decade old and there is no future replacement.

Despite its age, Mazda has sold 1511 6 units in 2022, becoming the second best-selling model in the segment, although far behind. Toyota Camry (9538 sales).
