The 2012 Mazda 6: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2012 Mazda 6; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2012 Mazda 6, here are the facts that matter.

What to check on the 6

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

What the specs mean

Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Its combined rating is 9.5 L/100 km, which means roughly 29 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $14.73. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,700 a year for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA lists 481 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Best uses

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the 6 first, and buy only if it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If the 6 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Money matters

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.73 in fuel.

Narrowing it down

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2012 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
