2013 Mazda6 shows its face for the first time

Today we bring you the best look yet of the next-generation Mazda6. Previously teased through a series of videos we now have two still pictures of the car’s front-end.

Often times the compromises made from concept to production can lose the ethos of the original vision, but we’re pleased to say that is not the case here. Obvious and acceptable changes have been made to the headlights and the lower section of the front grille.

Of course, the production Mazda6 won’t be as sleek and stylish as the Takeri, but, so far, we’re liking what we’re seeing.

The full reveal of the 2013 Mazda6 is due to take place in September at what will be a very busy Paris Motor Show, with sales to commence early in the new year.

UPDATE: Mazda Australia has alerted to us to some new photos which have been added here (all now available as 2000px super images). A rear three-quarter view reveals more of the Mazda6’s sleek styling. We can also confirm the new Mazda6 will debut at the Moscow Motor Show on 29 August.
