The 2L engine is very linear, more so then the 2.5 but it needs to be revved harder to get going as Max torque is at 4000RPM rather then 3250. For a 2L, there is an impressive amount of torque below 4000RPM. This engine is easily more enjoyable to operate then just about all of its competition. Transmission Tuning And Gearing. Currently the Mazda Mazda6 has a score of 8.0 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 44 pieces of research and data elements using various sources. #11. in 2018 Affordable Midsize Cars. #32. in Used Midsize Cars $15K and up. 8.0. The 6’s four receives a bump from 2.3 to 2.5-liters, and now kicks out 170 horsepower. With the five-speed automatic, the four’s acceleration is adequate but uninspiring; curb weight is over 3,300 pounds, after all. With the fluid yet crisp-shifting medium-throw stick, there’s a bit more pep, but still few thrills. bh8O. 102 145 42 90 737 195 309 190
