Mazda’s powertrain line-up will comprise the 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel inline engine coupled to the 48-volt mild hybrid system. The gasoline-powered inline-six is likely to be hybrid. Spyder7 also claims about the possibility that Mazda6 will also come with a plug-in hybrid as well as an all-electric version later on in its lifecycle. It’s not known if the rear-wheel-drive Mazda6 will be sold in the US since the automaker had announced earlier in the year that the sedan, as well as the CX-3, will not be offered within the US.
