Bat-Holding Teen Smashes a Mazda6 Over a Magazine Cover...We Think

While nothing really surprises us any more, it's not everyday that you see a youngster going berserk on a fairly new vehicle.

To be honest, though, we have some reservations about the authenticity of this episode and whether it was staged or not (for whatever reason), but ultimately, we will let you be the judge of that.

Following the release of new photos of the Mazda6 Wagon last night, the Japanese automaker has now confirmed the engine lineup for the European market versions of the mid-size model ahead of its premiere at this month's Paris Motor Show.

When sales of the Mazda6 begin in Europe later this year, the sedan and wagon variants will be available with the brand's new SKYACTIV-D 2.2-liter turbo diesel engine in either Standard Power or High Power versions rated at 150hp and 175hp respectively.

New Images of the 2014 Mazda6 Station Wagon

Here are some new pieces of the puzzle that is the 2014 model year Mazda6, and more specifically, fresh photos of the station wagon variant that will make its first public appearance at this month's Paris Motor Show.

2014 Mazda6 Sedan Fully Exposed, Mega Gallery with 55 Photos

With the 2012 Moscow Motor Show (August 31 to September 9 for the public) just around the corner, Mazda has released a full set of photos and all sorts of details on its all-new 2014 Mazda6 mid-size model, which in some parts of the world including Europe, will also be offered as a station wagon.

The Mazda6 is the (more mundane looking) production version of the aggressive Takeri Concept from 2011 and it encompasses the firm's new "KODO – Soul of Motion" design language as well as a full range of SKYACTIV technologies.

"We have created a design in which the wild and dynamic expressions of motion artistically realise a powerful presence," says chief designer Akira Tamatani. "Simply looking at the car heightens one’s expectations about the driving experience even before actually riding in it."

Mazda says it has used soft materials on areas frequently touched by occupants, such as the door trims and the upper part of the dashboard panel and has paid special attention to details.
