The bigger, faster and smarter 2009 MAZDA6 will roll into the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show with a radical look and feel that is worthy of the vehicle's performance capabilities. Mazda will showcase two MAZDA6s at its booth at the SEMA show in Las Vegas. The Troy Lee MAZDA6 features custom paint by Troy Lee Designs, with paint prep and detailing by L&G Enterprises, paint material by PPG and body modifications by Funktion USA, to create an exterior design that is truly distinctive. To give the MAZDA6 a high-performance look and feel, 18" Momo Strike wheels, Hoosier tires and window tinting by A-1 Tinting are added. Suspension modification by Eibach Springs, cross-drilled, 6-piston big brake kit by Wilwood Engineering and custom brake fabrication by JD Performance builds upon MAZDA6's already superior handling performance.

David Green brings his award-winning styling to another SEMA showcar – Green Energy. The exterior features clean lines that run from the front to the rear spoilers, with DG Motorsports taking the lead on the styling components. The MAZDA6 is fitted with 19" Volk Rays wheels and Yokohama tires. Kustom Shop and Dan Hatch/TMI Custom bring it all together with the striking paint. The Green Energy is an elegant vehicle that is sure to get noticed on the road.

The Totally, Completely, 100% New MAZDA6

The 2009 MAZDA6 is all new, and built specifically for the North American market. Lessons learned from the first MAZDA6 and Mazda's newer successful vehicles—especially the Mazda CX-7 and award-winning CX-9—encouraged a clean-sheet approach to building the best mid-size sports sedan the US market has ever experienced.

All efforts have been focused on a single four-door sedan bodystyle offered in two basic series: the MAZDA6 i powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and the MAZDA6 s powered by a 3.7-liter V-6. The lineup also includes a comprehensive choice of equipment levels, interior colors and distinct interior trims.

Compared to the original MAZDA6, the new edition rides on a 4.5-inch longer wheelbase (109.8-in) with wider front and rear track. Overall length is greater by 6.1 inches and width rises by 2.3 inches. Trunk volume has been increased by nearly 10 percent. This larger package not only facilitates increases in every significant interior measurement, it moves the MAZDA6 from the bottom to the top of the mid-size class as defined by SAE and EPA volume measures.

The new powertrains rise to the task of moving the new MAZDA6 with authority. The MAZDA6 i's new 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine has 170-horsepower while the new MAZDA6 s's 3.7-liter V6 produces a rousing 272 horsepower. Along with output gains ranging from nine to 28 percent, fuel economy also rises.

Headquartered in Irvine, Calif., Mazda North American Operations oversees the sales, marketing, parts and customer service support of Mazda vehicles in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico through nearly 900 dealers. Operations in Canada are managed by Mazda Canada, Inc., located in Ontario; in Mexico by Mazda Motor de Mexico in Mexico City; and in Puerto Rico by Mazda de Puerto Rico in San Juan.
