Comments on: Mazda6 estate for Paris debut: official images http://paultan.org/2012/09/06/mazda6-estate-for-paris-debut-official-images/ Malaysia's Number 1 Source for Automotive News Sun, 26 May 2013 03:55:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: kadajawi http://paultan.org/2012/09/06/mazda6-estate-for-paris-debut-official-images/#comment-807538 kadajawi Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:31:07 +0000 http://paultan.org/?p=129069#comment-807538 Not very surprising. Look at any recent D segment wagon and their sedan counterpart. Audi, Merc, BMW, Ford, Opel, Citroen, … all at least as good looking as their sedan counterpart. It is just that we don’t get to see those.

Audi A4 Avant
Mercedes C class T model
Mercedes E class T model

And many more. And they all look pretty good.

In Germany you hardly see big sedans. A4 and A6 are usually sold as estate, Passat too. C and E class as well as 3 and 5 series are often (maybe not as often as Audi and VW) sold as estate. The Toyota Avensis, if seen, is usually an estate. Volvo obviously too. Mondeo is popular as estate. The list goes on and on and on.

Also what has helped the estate in general was that it is not just seen as a practical thing nowadays. It’s more of a lifestyle thing, it has to look good, and the estate shape, when going down a bit coupe like at the back, does lend to it. Even the Ferrari FF is an estate. Sort of.

This new design language works better on the sedan. The back of this wagon don’t seem to gel very well with the new front.

Bring more wagons!

Designwise it is a thing of beauty. The extra glass allows the design to flow gracefully to its conclusion. Better than the sedan. I will print it out and put it on my wall and visualise driving it…

Please bring more wagon in Malaysia. The practicality is unmatchable by sedan and hatchback!

This has to be the best-looking wagon after the Audi A6.

Love it!

Anyway, yep, very stylish indeed. Mazda’s new design language is really working out for them.
