The Mazda Xedos 6, also known as the Eunos 500 in Japan and the Mazda 626 in some markets, was a mid-size sedan produced by Mazda from 1992 to 1999. It was the successor to the Mazda 626 and represented a significant shift in Mazda's design philosophy, moving towards a more sophisticated and luxurious image. The Xedos 6 was designed to compete with European luxury sedans like the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, offering a blend of sporty handling, refined comfort, and advanced technology. The Xedos 6 was powered by a range of four-cylinder and V6 engines, with the most powerful option being a 2.5-liter V6 producing 168 horsepower. It was available with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission, and featured independent suspension on all four wheels, offering a comfortable ride and precise handling. The Xedos 6 was also notable for its advanced interior design, featuring features like power seats, leather upholstery, and a premium audio system. While the Xedos 6 failed to achieve the sales success of its competitors, it remains a stylish and well-engineered car that offers a unique blend of Japanese practicality and European sophistication.
