Mazda 6 Dead for 2022, but Maybe Not Gone Forever

  • Mazda is discontinuing the 6 mid-size sedan for the U.S. market.
  • The 2021 model year will be its last and it won’t return for 2022.
  • A future Mazda 6 is rumored to be on its way with a new rear-wheel-drive platform and an inline-six engine.

The current third-generation 6 has been around since 2014 and will not be available for 2022, meaning Mazda is the latest automaker—following Ford, Chrysler, and a few others—to exit the popular family-sedan segment.
