Per the carmaker, Mazda6 will be succeeded by the CX series wagons for the Japanese domestic market.

“Successive Atenzas and Mazda6s have been loved by many customers for a long time, with a cumulative total of 226,437 units sold in Japan . The CX series of wagons will take over this role, and we will continue to deliver a lively experience to our customers through driving pleasure that is in tune with the times,” Mazda Executive Officer in Charge of Domestic Sales Kazuyoshi Todo said in a statement.

Production of the Mazda6 will only be up until April 2024.
