A diesel, 40mpg, with 310 lb. ft torque. I think Mazda will have a winner on their hands if this were true.

Interesting how they're already doing a facelift after it recently just had one. Also I wonder if it's going to be like an added packed where you can sub for the diesel or just an all together new car.

On a side note that new scion sounds interesting

Please don't believe everything you read on the internet:

The next 6 will definitely have strong Shinari looks (Like all the future Mazdas, it's called Kodo) but it won't be a 2012 car, that's for sure.

yeah 2012 seems a little too soon, the scion would be cool with more power though.

Mazmart is correct that 2012 is too soon but the rest is pretty much correct. The next Mazda6 will be Shinari styled and come with the new Sky-D and new Skyactive manual and automatic trannies. I think we might see it this fall though as a prototype with a 2012 (for 2013 MY) launch. but maybe not until spring of next year.

If sales of the wagon were high before, then they still be making it as we speak.
