It’s been a while since Mazda offered a turbo engine in their flagship sedan but the wait is now over. In addition to swiping the 2.5L turbo engine from the CX-9, Mazda decided to bring us a new top-end trim with improved interior materials, real wood trim and more. Just don’t call it a Mazda Millenia.
Going head-to-head with the new V6 Camry and 2.0L turbo Accord is no small matter, and here is where the Mazda lets us down just a little. But with solid good looks, excellent driving dynamics and more power than before it’s still worth a look.
