Vehicle Comparisons:
2019 Honda Accord vs Mazda6
If you’re looking for style and efficiency when driving through the streets near Miami, Doral, and Hialeah, then you need a sedan. The modern sedan is packed full of features that’ll make every drive exciting. With so many on the market, finding the right one that meets your standards can be a fun process.
Here at Braman Honda, we compared two of the more popular models, the Honda Accord vs. Mazda6, to show you what each of them will offer you.
2019 Honda Accord vs Mazda6 Performance
These two sedans are incredible examples of what a sedan could be, as they both feature plenty of power under the hood. However, the 2019 Accord has the edge with its powerful 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo engine that produces up to 192 horsepower. The 2019 Mazda6 still features a strong 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, but its lack of turbo power means its maximum output is only 187 horsepower.
You may think that the extra power on the Honda Accord would mean a poorer fuel economy, but the Accord is the exception rather than the rule. Even with the extra power, the Accord features an EPA-estimated 30 city/38 highway MPG.* The Mazda6 can only muster an EPA-estimated 26 city/35 highway MPG.
Honda Accord vs Mazda6 Interior
Inside these sedans, you’ll find plenty of space for cargo and passengers. The front seats in the Mazda6 offer a comfortable 38.4 inches of headroom and 42.2 inches of legroom. However, the Honda Accord is just slightly ahead, offering 39.5 inches and 42.3 inches, respectively. For a more substantial difference, take a look at the rear legroom. The Mazda6 offers 38.7 inches, but rear passengers in the Accord can enjoy an impressive 40.4 inches.
Trunk capacity is also a big deal for anyone who wants to make driving a sedan a long-term arrangement. Both vehicles have more trunk space than you might think. The Mazda 6 offers a generous 14.7 cubic feet–but that can’t quite compete with the incredible 16.7 cubic feet offered by the Accord.
Accord vs Mazda6 Safety
When it comes to safety, Honda makes sure to equip their sedan with the latest technology to keep you out of harm’s way. They’ve been pioneering safety features since their founding, and that legacy can be found in the Accord.
The advanced Honda Sensing® suite comes standard on all trim levels and is full of useful driver-assistance features, like Lane Keeping Assist System and Collision Mitigation Braking System™. The Mazda6 also comes with a range of driver-assistive features to help give you more confidence while driving.
One feature in the Accord that the Mazda6 doesn’t offer, though, is its Traffic Sign Recognition System. This will notify you of information on signs you pass that you may have missed. This is especially helpful when you are unsure what the speed limit of the road is.
2019 Honda Accord vs Mazda6: The Verdict
As always, the Mazda6 proves to be a good car for all types of drivers and a formidable opponent against the Honda Accord. However, the Accord is an excellent choice for drivers near Miami, Hialeah, and Doral, especially with its ample power, space, and safety features.
