In terms of mechanics, the only big change to the 2019 Mazda6 model is the retiring of its SKYACTIV®-MT manual transmission option. This makes its SKYACTIV®-Drive automatic transmission the standard and only transmission option that improves baseline fuel economy but also ups its price.
However, as an incentive to consider this new, higher baseline price for the 2019 Mazda6 model, Mazda has made the i-ACTIVSENSE® suite of safety features standard across all trim levels, which includes:
- Advanced Smart City Brake Support with Pedestrian DetectionÂ
- Auto-Leveling LED HeadlightsÂ
- Automatic On/Off HeadlightsÂ
- Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic AlertÂ
- High Beam ControlÂ
- Lane Departure Warning with Lane-Keep AssistÂ
- Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & GoÂ
- Rain-Sensing Windshield WipersÂ
- Rearview CameraÂ
- Seat Belt Reminder IndicatorÂ
- Smart Brake SupportÂ
