Mazda 6 Sedan vs Toyota Camry
Verdict
For Malaysian buyers, the Mazda 6 Sedan offers a competitive price of RM 180,359, significantly lower than the Toyota Camry's RM 221,800. The 6 Sedan's 5.7 L/100km fuel economy is appealing, especially compared to the Camry's lack of data in this area. However, the Camry's superior power output of 201 hp and advanced safety features like auto emergency braking may justify its higher price for those prioritising performance and safety.
Pick the 6 Sedan if you value fuel efficiency and a lower price.
Pick the Camry if you want more power and advanced safety features.
