A few days ago, Mazda announced that it regarded Lexus as a hypothetical enemy that was about to attack the premium car market with existing brands. In recent years, the trend of SUVs and electric vehicles has also led to the birth of the CX-60. Just as the Mazda 6, the flagship model, is rumored to be back on the market with a major overhaul of the front-facing rear-drive platform, oil-electric hybrid and powertrain and in-line six-cylinder engine, the idea seems to have been officially killed in an interview with Joachim Kunz, head of engineering and development at Mazda in Europe.
The overhauled Mazda 6 appears to have been shot in an interview with the head of The Engineering Development Department at Mazda in Europe
Joachim Kunz was recently interviewed by foreign media. In the interview he was asked if there was a chance to launch a rear-drive motorhome or Coupe sports car in the future. His response was disappointing, mentioning that "we are certainly looking forward to the creation of a new rear-drive platform, a Mazda 6 with a inline six-cylinder engine or a brand new model." However, SUV models are still the hottest models in the global market at the moment, and the most important thing for us is to catch this wave." This answer seems to mean that the Mazda 6's overhaul may stop here, or wait for the SUV trend to pass.
In recent years, RV has become the hottest model in the automobile market, and various car manufacturers have also actively promoted the sales of their own SVS
Indeed, SUVs can bring more space and better driving visibility than cars. Many families or outdoor players in order to be able to carry more things to facilitate travel, in the car will give priority to the choice of SUV models or hatchback models, the four-door caravan market is slowly no longer the first choice for consumers to buy a car, of course, four-door sedan also has his user. However, the recent birth of the CX-60 has hit the boom in electric vehicles and SUVs, not to mention Mazda's hottest fuel car, the CX-5, which continues to sell well in the global market. The sales of these two SUV models will presumably be the part that Mazda has paid the most attention to in recent years.

The author believes that the majorly revamped Mazda 6 still has a chance to appear, after all, Mazda has just announced that it is about to attack the premium car market, if the major revamp version of the Mazda 6 specifications are really as rumored by the outside world. Perhaps with its interior design aesthetics and new engine platform, the Mazda 6 will be a key factor in Mazda's success in the premium car market.
