The 2015 Mazda6 is a full-size family sedan that gets a pretty incredible 29 MPG city and 40 MPG highway. It does this with a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine that puts out 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission. We put it to the test to see how the fuel efficient 2015 Mazda6 fares in both a 0-60 test and in a hot lap around the track. Watch and see how much of a price you pay in speed for all that fuel efficiency.

Nicole Wakelin fell in love with cars as a teenager when she got to go for a ride in a Ferrari. It was red and it was fast and that was all that mattered. Game over. She considers things a bit more carefully now, but still has a weakness for fast, beautiful cars. Nicole also writes for NerdApproved and GeekMom.
