Mazda has revealed its new BEV for the European market today at the Brussels Motor Show. A stylish electric hatchback with a fastback saloon style, the Mazda6e will go on sale in left-hand drive European markets this year before arriving in ÚK dealers in the first half of 2026.

An all-new mid-sized electric car, the Mazda6e brings a fresh take to the well-regarded internal combustion engine powered Mazda6, which across three generations from 2002 to 2023 was a popular model with European and ÚK customers. The all-new Mazda6e represents a fresh take on its predecessors, featuring a modern flowing exterior, sleek cabin design and Mazda's famed focus on the experience from behind the wheel.

Available with two powertrain options to allow for customers differing preferences, the Mazda6e is offered with a choice of 68.8kWh or 80kWh battery. The 68.8kWh version offers a range of up to 300miles and with 200kW DC charging it charges from 10 to 80 per cent in just 22 minutes, meaning a range of 145miles can be added in 15 minutes. The electric motor delivers 258ps for a 0-62mph performance of 7.6seconds.

For customers prioritising longer range usage the 80kWh version enables a range of up to 345miles and with 244ps reaches 62mph in 7.8secs. Both versions produce the same 320Nm of torque with a rear-wheel drive layout. The longer range 80kWh Mazda6e will charge from 10 to 80 per cent in 45 minutes and like the smaller battery version supports DC rapid charging.

Designed under the concept of 'Electrifying Design Crafted to Perfection' the Mazda6e introduces the next evolution of Mazda's 'Kodo Soul of Motion' design philosophy. Its smooth flowing lines and bold features give the car a strong yet refined presence. The low roofline and short-deck coupe silhouette offer a sporty and stylish look while at the same time keeping the functionality of a five-door hatchback.

Standout design details include frameless doors, a bold lighting signature and integrated door handles - all of which create a seamless and modern appearance. At the front the new glowing signature wing lights around the grille to give a unique face to the Mazda6e. It features dynamic illumination which makes the wings appear to flutter when the car is charging, while the lighting also indicates charge status.

In profile, the parallel lines running down the sides emphasise the sleekness of the Mazda6e's silhouette, while the light catching effect of the lower door shapes, is another example of how the surfacing of Kodo design uniquely creates the expression of movement. The Mazda6e's 19-inch wheels have a range-boosting aerodynamic design that features a sporty five-spoke design with flat black surfaces.

At the rear the Mazda6e's stylish rear lamp design and horizontal taillight bar ensure a light signature as distinctive as the front, while newly designed Mazda lettering replaces the brand logo badge at the rear of the car. Another unique for Mazda feature is the electronically extendable rear spoiler that's both aesthetically pleasing and enhances stability at speed.

Inside, the Mazda6e's cabin is flooded with natural light thanks to a panoramic roof that contributes to an airy ambiance and sense of space. Designed to deliver sophisticated simplicity, the spacious interior is inspired by the Japanese concept of 'Ma' which emphasises the beauty of space and the floating centre console and instrument panel enhance this sense of lightness. Premium materials feature throughout both the available trim levels: Takumi and Takumi Plus. Takumi models will feature beige or black artificial leather, while Takumi Plus offers premium tan Nappa leather.

Together, the exterior and interior elements create a cohesive blend of style, comfort and functionality. The smart driver-focused cockpit features a 14.6-inch touchscreen and a 10.2-inch instrument set, complemented by an augmented reality head-up display. Blending craftmanship, thoughtful design and cutting-edge technology the Mazda6e is the perfect car for the return of the Mazda6 as a BEV in the age of electrification, while a 330-litre boot, excellent passenger space and 70-litre front boot ensure strong practicality.



Adding, 'In the ÚK we are facing some unique and complex challenges in the balance between EV legislation and consumer demand but at Mazda we will introduce new models and ensure our product range fits the pace of actual consumer demand in the ÚK with technologies that are amongst the best in the market. When it arrives in ÚK showrooms in 2026, the Mazda6e will be a fantastic and timely addition to our multi-solution approach that includes mild-hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric offerings.

Arriving in the ÚK in 2026, the Mazda6e is the next chapter in Mazda's EV story in Europe.
