Best Models To Consider While Buying Mazda 6 Diesel In UK

Japanese automaker, Mazda, started production of Mazda 6 in 2002 and pretty soon it became an instant hit in UK, Europe and American markets. Its sportier looks coupled with equally agile performance made it one of the most sought after cars in UK. However, choosing the best model from whole lineup is a herculean task. So we have decided to shortlist the best diesel powered Mazda 6s produced from 2002 till 2012. While defining the best we will focus on bhp, fuel economy, insurance group, tax band and 0 to 60 figures only, since they encompass both performance and functional aspects.

Among all the hatchbacks produced from 2002 till 2012, only three set themselves apart from the rest.

Mazda 2.0d TS 5D: The 2.0 litre, 140 bhp diesel engine used in this model produced 360 Nm of torque, propelling it to 60 in 9.2 seconds and giving it a top speed of 126 mph. on highway it reached 47 MPG and was relatively cheap to insure, awarded Grade 20.

Mazda 2.2d Sport 5D: It was the fastest hatchback in whole lineup of Mazda 6, claiming 0 to 60 in 8.4 seconds and still doing 52 MPG on motorways. Its 2.2 litre diesel engine produced 400 Nm of torque and reached top speed in access of 130 miles. From insurance perspective it was awarded a poor 28th grade.

Mazda 2.2d TS2 5D: We are ranking this model as the BEST one among all hatchbacks since it provided performance along with economy. Its 160 bhp engine pushed it to 60 in 8.9 seconds with top speed of 132 mph, while maintaining 51 MPG on highways. It was also cheap to insure as it lied in grade 23.
