Mazda EZ-6-Hybrid REEV

Gave up on Tesla and joined the Mazda fan club. I originally went to test drive a Tesla with the intention of ordering one, but a little incident happened: while test driving, I passed by a Mazda showroom and was immediately attracted by theÍâ¹Û of the Mazda EZ-6 at first sight. Maybe it was love at first sight, so I went to test drive it. Not to mention that driving a Tesla makes me a bit carsick; my wife also gets carsick when riding in a Tesla. But when test driving the Changan Mazda EZ-6, my wife didn¡¯t get carsick, and I myself felt it was more stable to drive. I had heard before that Mazda has good handling, and the experience during this test drive was indeed quite good. I tried the parking assist, IACC adaptive cruise control, lever-controlled lane change assisted driving, and 11 scene modes, and it felt like a very smart cockpit. The zero-gravity seats were also good when I tried them, but I didn¡¯t choose to install them because I didn¡¯t think they were of much use. The electric sunshade felt good, so I chose to install that. I hesitated a bit when choosing the color, but finally chose white. I chose the Mazda EZ-6 because it doesn¡¯t cause carsickness, so I bought it. I used half of the money I originally planned to buy a Tesla to buy Changan stocks, hoping the stock price will rise. That way, it¡¯s like buying stocks and getting a Mazda EZ-6 for free. Hahaha. The salesperson also said my arrangement was very smart!

As someone who already owns two Mazdas at home and considers myself a×ÊÉîÂí·Û (die-hard Mazda fan), I've been keeping an eye on this car for quite a while, and after a test drive, I finally decided to pick it up. Let me elaborate on why I made that decision. First, the exterior is still quite good-looking. This generation's "¹â֮Òí" (Light Wing) front face, coupled with the electric rear spoiler and the¹ᴩʽβµÆ (through-type taillights), paired with Mazda's traditional circular taillights. Although the overall body appears ratherºñÖØ (heavy), the black decorative elements on the sides help toÐÞÊÎ (modify) it slightly, reducing that heaviness. Second, the handling still has that distinct Mazda feel. I was a bit nervous during the test drive, but once I got in the car, I immediately felt that it was very Mazda: the steering wheel is light, but it goes exactly where you point it, with a really good feel. The EZ6 also has good support; when quickly changing lanes at around 70km/h, only the occupants feel the lateral G-force, and the car sticks to the road like glue, with almost no body roll. Furthermore, because the Axela also charges the capacitor when you lift off the throttle, it feels similar to the regenerative braking now. So, with the EZ6, you can also adjust the regenerative braking level to simulate thatÀ­³¶¸Ð (tugging sensation). Another thing that won me over is this generation's HUD (Head-Up Display). It has changed from the previous method that required a physical film for projection to now being able to project directly onto the windshield. The displayed content has also become richer, from just a single speed value to now including speed, navigation, and other information, and it can be adjusted through the infotainment system. Having said all theseÓŵã (advantages) in my opinion, I do think this generation still hasȱµã (drawbacks). What frustrates me the most is the reduction in physical buttons. I find this quite aÖÂÃü (fatal) issue. Even with voice assistance for operations, some basic functions like air conditioning and defogging are safer with physical buttons. If only the driver is in the car and driving, they can adjust these without taking their eyes off the road to look for button positions.

First of all, in terms of appearance, my wife fell in love with this bright red Mazda at first sight. The shape is beautiful, generous, stylish and imposing. There was no car in stock at the store. We saw a customer who had picked up the car, which was red, coming to register it. Our eyes were drawn to it. Then we got into the exhibition car; the interior has a large screen, wrapped in suede and microfiber leather, and the sense of technology is also good, but the instrument display looks a bit small and not large enough. Sitting in the back row, the space is okay, but it feels a bit cramped for the head, maybe because of the battery pack. The storage space is very large both in the front and the back, and it's a pure electric platform with rear-wheel drive, which is good. When buying an electric car, you should choose a pure electric platform. When we went for a test drive, the assisted driving was average; it couldn't actively stop at traffic lights according to the navigation, not as good as Xiaopeng. We experienced the zero-gravity seats, which have heating, massage, and ventilation functions, available for both the driver and front passenger seats. This really´ò¶¯ÁËÎÒ (touched me). We came back and tried the automatic parking function, which my wife really needs, and the function experience was very good. So we decided on the spot. We have already driven it home for several days now.
