Isn't this car called the Mazda Atenza in Japan? Is this worth noting? -SpeechFreedom (talk) 15:44, 7 May 2011 (UTC) ---> Yes, this car is called the Mazda Atenza in Japan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buhin (talk • contribs) 18:40, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
It is very obvious in this article that only the American awards are noted. Therefore, I've included a British gong.
I also got rid of some of the 7 competitors listed. It now has an American rival, a budget rival, a European rival and a prestige rival. I removed the MKXlink aswell - rather irrelavent apart from the platform.
This should probably have stayed using the most common name, Mazda 6, versus the Atenza name, used only in one country. Friday (talk) 18:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
If the naming is going to stay, then quite a bit has to be re-edited as this article is written from the perspective of Mazda6. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I am not agree with him. And I agree that Sox23 said, Atenza name used only in Jpn. -- 202.28.25.71 (talk) 07:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
The model name outside of Japan is "Mazda6" as one word only not "Mazda 6" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.173.152 (talk) 06:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
How can I go to the talk page of Mazda6? It looks this is the talk page of Atenza. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
From the specification of Euro version, it looks like it is more closely related to a Ford Fusion, i.e. still based on the CD-3 developed by Mazda, rather than the EUCD of Ford Europe. North wiki 02:46, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
The Mazdaspeed6 should be merged to this article, its only one variant of this car and it its now quite shortly article anyway
Disagree. This vehicle is a completely different model than the Mazda6 here in N.A. (and other parts of the world). The Mazdaspeed6 shares many common parts (as do the Chevy Cavalier and Pontiac Sunfire), but they are different models aimed at different markets and are completely separate models. Mazdaspeed6 should remain its own article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.221.5.153 (talk) 12:59, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
I think more important than whether this is marketed as a different model is whether the automotive press treats it as a different model. And they do. Friday (talk) 14:45, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
all so very wrong, it is a different car because the stiffened the frame up more then 50% harder than a reg mazda6, it is a high compression turbo AWD model and the AWD alone makes this car a very different model and class of car then a FWD mazda6, and in europe for your info it is the same car as here in N.A. 2.3L-turbo-AWD-High compression.... shut up now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.190.236.49 (talk) 23:42, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Disagree. Just because it was built based on the Mazda 6 platform, doesn't mean it is not a separate vehicle. That logic gives greater importance to the source of parts and body design than the production, marketing and use of the vehicle, which is far more relevant to the distinguishing of models. To say that the Mazdaspeed 6 is a variant of the 6 is to say that the first motorcycles, fire engines, bulldozers and tanks were just "model variants" of bicycles and work trucks, the platforms from which they were built. If it's rebuilt, marketed and sold in full production as a different car with a different name for a different purpose, it's a different car. - (Note, The standard Subaru WRX is officially a version of the Impreza, while the WRX STI is officially a different car.)
It is a completely different vehicle, aimed at different markets, with very different capabilities and engineering than the Mazda 6. Turbocharger, 4-wheel drive system and frame stiffening etc. are found nowhere else in Mazda's lineup during the model years of this car.
Both Mazda and all major automotive press consider this to be a separate vehicle. Officially.
Also - Where did the rest of this article go? It was very long and well written. I believe it is being considered for merging due to its brevity, and that restoration is a better alternative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kbeder (talk • contribs) 15:33, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
assembly: Rayong, Thailand (for Thailand)
What I know is Mazda 6 is not available in Thailand if who want the 6 are not import it from outside Thailand. --Love Krittaya (talk) 17:24, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Transmission(s) 5-speed automatic 6-speed automatic (mated with V6 for NA market only) 5-speed manual 6-speed manual
6-speed automatic is not only for NA market but also JP market
https://ssl.mazda.co.jp/purchase/estimate/atenza-sedan In japan, you can choose the Atenza with 4WD and 6AT. The transmission is mated with I4 2.5L engine.

The result of the proposal was support for move, and per our well-settled common names guideline. I have considered the opposition and find it wanting. The article should be at the name far more commonly used, known, and likely to be searched by English language speakers. The opposition argument using Mazda6
verses Mazda 6
to show neither is the common name actually lends support for the move as the common name, rather than argues against the move as it was offered. The two forms of the same name with a spacing difference combine to show an even larger disparity between some form of Mazda followed by 6, as compared with Mazda followed by Atenza. We use the "Principle of least astonishment" when we think about Wikipedia title disambiguation. A person searching for Mazda6, Mazda 6 (or any close variant) will not be surprised by finding themselves at the one over the other, but they certainly will be astonished when finding themselves at Mazda Atenza.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:51, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
Mazda Atenza → Mazda6 — Per WP:COMMONNAME and per Talk:Mazda3#Requested move. The car is available worldwide and well-known as "Mazda6", according to the article, the current name "Mazda Atenza" was only used in Japan. Aubergine (talk) 01:34, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
A photo of the newer version should be put up top with the old one. It's kind of misleading otherwise. Or maybe someone can get a photo of them side by side? ChildofMidnight (talk) 17:47, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
This article reads like a damn car commercial. It's obvious Mazda had its technical people put up this article. Mazda, you are shameless sell-outs, you'll even compromise education and knowledge just to make a buck.

"The second-generation Mazda6 is based on the modified first-generation Mazda6 chassis which Ford also still uses as their CD3 platform"
I suggest changing the "Ford also still uses as their CD3 platform" to "Ford continued using the CD3 platform"
The Ford Fusion hasn't used the CD3 platform since 2013. 70.109.187.104 (talk) 06:32, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
