How many seconds does the old Mazda6 take to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?
2 Answers
The old Mazda6 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.7 seconds. The previous generation Mazda6 still utilizes the classic 2.0L engine equipped with VVT and VIS technologies, delivering a maximum power output of 108KW and generating 183N·m of torque at 4000 rpm. Below is a detailed introduction about the Mazda6: 1. Exterior: The Mazda6 features a redesigned exterior with an oval front grille inspired by sports cars, paired with a wide and low chassis, showcasing Mazda's dynamic performance. As Mazda describes it, the Mazda6 is 'an athlete in casual wear.' The streamlined body gives a refined impression, with body design precision surpassing some higher-class vehicles. Extensive use of new technologies results in a compact structure and high manufacturing precision. 2. Configuration: The Mazda6's robust triple-H body structure, front and rear suspension systems, and extremely rigid axles form an integrated unit that works together to maximize the absorption of kinetic energy during collisions, providing excellent protection for occupants. In this 3H structure, the roof is connected to the A-pillar and C-pillar by crossbeams fixed at the top of the B-pillar; the body uses sturdy B-pillars to connect the high-strength roof and floor; while the floor employs crossbeams to link the front and rear suspensions. This trinity design significantly enhances the vehicle's ability to absorb collision energy.
As an owner of a Mazda6, I find that the 0-100 km/h acceleration generally takes around 8 seconds, depending on the model year and engine configuration. For example, my 2015 model with a 2.5L four-cylinder engine and a 6AT transmission responds quite quickly when I step on the accelerator at startup, with actual measurements ranging between 7.8 to 8.5 seconds. It makes overtaking in the city effortless, though not as aggressive as a sports car, it's more than enough for quick starts at traffic lights. The main factors affecting acceleration time are vehicle weight and road conditions: a full load or rainy days can slow it down by about half a second, while steady acceleration on the highway actually saves fuel. For daily driving, I recommend regular checks on engine oil and tires—these details help maintain smooth acceleration and prevent transmission jerks. If you're prioritizing fuel economy when choosing a car, this acceleration time is quite practical; chasing excessive speed isn't ideal for commuting.
