MAZDA 6E - FULL ELECTRIC MIGHT BE THE ANSWER FOR MAZDA !

EV Channels Review

The Mazda 6e emerges as a compelling electric entrant, particularly for those seeking a blend of style and practicality. The reviewer highlights its striking exterior design, noting its slightly larger dimensions than the Tesla Model 3 and a sleek, sensual roofline. Interiorly, the Takumi Plus trim impresses with microfiber and animal skin accents, though the reviewer points out the potential for tall drivers to feel a slight lack of headroom due to the battery architecture and the fixed panoramic roof. The car offers competitive features as standard, including a HUD with augmented reality and a glass roof, aiming to rival the Tesla Model 3 on value. However, performance figures, particularly acceleration, lag behind the Model 3. The reviewer strongly recommends the base model with the 69 kWh LFP battery due to its faster charging, quicker acceleration, lower price point, and LFP's user-friendly nature compared to the NMC battery in the larger pack. A significant point of discussion is its Chinese manufacturing, which enables a competitive sub-€45,000 entry price in Europe but raises questions about traditional Mazda driving dynamics. The trunk space is noted as somewhat shallow, but rear passenger legroom is praised as superior to the Model 3.
