New Mazda6? :Yawn: Pass.

They need to bring out something interesting. Hell... a new B segment car is more interesting.

It could be the NEW Mazda 2 for you guys...I read somewhere that the spy shots of the new 2 in Germany, will be shown at "an Auto Show" as a concept,but will be the production model!

I know the new 2 has the same engines,suspension as the existing one in Australia, Japan and Europe.

its a new concept- the Nagare(means "flow") https://www.rx8club.com/general-automotive-49/mazda-nagare-la-auto-show-103478/

it appears as if they have found the direction they want to go by combining some of the Senku elements with some found Franz's Kabura. They let Franz design this one as well.

From what I understand Nagare is nothing more than a concept. One designed to show the future of Mazda. It will in no way ever make it to production. So slapping a rotary in it, while natural for Mazda, means nothing. This isn't a new vehicle, it's a new idea, and I hope this isn't what all the hype was about.

Probably hydrogen rotary to make the concept car cool. Senku had it too, where did it go tho? it was merely to show off their design and technology. This only tells us that we might see more curves on future Mazdas.

im thinking this is what the Show Officials were talking about when they said World Debut. This is a closer to next gen Mazda production then Kabura and Senku were. Remember the Senku and Kabura and Sassou were the various design studios entry into a sort of competition. So the Nagare is of a melding of the most favoured bits from the previous spate of concepts into a car that shows the actual form to which mazda's styling is now headed.

At least thats my take. Im waiting on more confirmation

As for the Senku's engine, I believe it was a DI-Renesis/Electric hydrid?

Whatever this debut vehicle represents I am interested to get more details of it.

I think its electric, hydrogen, gasoline hybrid. But we'll never see it, it doesnt really matter, just to showcase technology.

I guess we're in that phase where everything is a concept. I'd really like to see something special come out this car show season from Mazda, but me thinks it's going to be another year or two before that happens.
