The Mazda 6 is an important name for the European client, and now the sedan is moving into full electrification for good. The promises are pretty much the same: comfort, plenty of space and an interior that could always sit at the premium big boys’ table. During Eurocharge by Schaeffler we tested the smaller battery version (68.8 kWh) coupled with the 258 hp motor. As a footnote: the second version offers an 80 kWh battery and slightly less power: 245 hp. Whichever option you choose, power is sent to the rear axle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the design – one of the elements that got the most attention – the Mazda 6e didn’t break the brand’s golden rule: Jinba Ittai – the communion between horse and rider, the way the Japanese manufacturer has managed for years to put cars on the market that communicate properly with the one behind the wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below we have prepared all the information on range and consumption recorded in real traffic, charging time spent at stations and energy costs. We’ve put them infographics that are easy to follow and understand, and at the end we’ve also drawn some conclusions based on the figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Important mention on the driving style:<\/strong> Throughout the entire test, the car was driven in “Normal” mode, never “Eco”. It drove steadily, within the speed limits, with an approach as close as possible to the legal speed limit on each road segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
