Mazda has accustomed us to choices that go against the tide, at times even courageous but always in keeping with its philosophy, and the new Mazda 6e, the subject of a Roman preview following the international one last January, is certainly part of this vision. For its first long-range electric model, in fact, the Hiroshima-based company has not opted for an SUV, a choice that would also be popular in this sector today, but has taken the opportunity to put one of its best-loved models, the Mazda6 saloon, back on the road.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Mazda 6e is based on the Deepal L07, produced by Changan’s Chinese partners, but has been thoroughly customised by the parent company’s design centre in its lines and partly in its shape to take on the characteristic features of Kodo Design and become Mazda’s new top-of-the-range model.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The wheelbase remains unchanged at 2.90 meters, but the body has been extended beyond 4.90 meters (up from 4.88). While retaining the practical rear hatch, the design gains newfound dynamism and elegance, with cleaner lines and improved aerodynamic efficiency \u2014 helped in part by the newly designed wheels. Part sports sedan, part luxury car, the Mazda 6e doesn\u2019t shy away from impactful details \u2014 all functional \u2014 such as flush door handles and a retractable rear spoiler. But it\u2019s inside the cabin that Mazda\u2019s philosophy truly comes to life, showcasing a refined sense of comfort and artisanal attention to detail.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The interior has been redesigned with inspiration from the Japanese concept of Ma<\/em>, the deliberate use of empty space to bring harmony to shapes. This approach is evident in the dashboard and central tunnel, shaped as straight lines in space but separated by empty volumes. A solution rooted in tradition, yet open to innovation, for a model defined as \u201cthe most technologic Mazda of ever\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1138,"featured_media":69853,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69865","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-extra-en"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-07-03 13:30:36","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69865","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1138"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69865"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69865\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":69867,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69865\/revisions\/69867"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69865"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69865"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69865"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
