I own a Mazda 6 so perhaps I
I own a Mazda 6 so perhaps I am biased but also have worked in the automotive business for years. I have found the Mazda 6 to be Dollar for Dollar, the most car for the money in its class. I once worked for Hyundai and have driven the Turbo...while highway acceleration is much greater with the Turbo Engine, however not practical for usable everyday power. I think the small amount of turbo lag in the car makes it fall very short when compared to the Mazda's responsive 2.5 liter engine. Driving the Mazda 6 around town and on curvy back roads makes it a much more enjoyable car to drive. The sport mode in the Grand Touring's Technology package, while adding every other option available through Mazda, will still keep you at an MSRP well under $35K. While equipped with high end technology normally found in cars that cost as much as $60K...Mix that with a MUCH lower cost of ownership than the Turbo Sonata and you have a no brainer here. Mazda rarely has recalls and are one of the top ranked brands for Reliability. Ranked much higher than Hyundai on Consumer Reports Most Reliable Brands...They also have been ranked #1 by the EPA 2 years in a row for best average fuel economy in the United States...Drive a Hyundai Sonata Turbo and then drive a 2015 Mazda 6 Grand Touring with Technology Package and the answer will be very clear...
