Driver Insights
The 2013 Mazda 6 stands out visually because of Mazda’s KODO design philosophy, which emphasizes flowing body lines and a sporty stance. Based on feedback from Sri Lankan owners, the long bonnet and wide grille give the sedan a more premium appearance than many competitors from the same period.
From local ads and forum discussions, Sorento 2012 is popular among families who need a comfortable long-distance diesel 7-seater but don’t want to pay Land Cruiser money. It sits against Mitsubishi Outlander, Hyundai Santa Fe and older Toyota Kluger/Highlander–type SUVs.
