Mazda MAZDA6 vs. BMW Z4 Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. The Mazda MAZDA6 is quite a bit cheaper to get to the dealership than the BMW Z4. The Mazda doesn't pale in comparison to the Z4 in terms of fuel economy. There isn't much of a difference in gas mileage here, but if you must know, the BMW Z4 is somewhat more economical than the Mazda. The MAZDA6 is tremendously less costly than the BMW Z4 regarding MSRP.

Utility
The Mazda MAZDA6 will most definitely prove more convenient than the BMW for those of you with frequent child-cargo.

Convenience
You'll definitely have to take the BMW Z4 for a fill-up more often than the MAZDA6 because of its tank size and fuel economy.

Comfort
Taller drivers will markedly enjoy the extra head room in the Mazda MAZDA6's front cabin compared to the BMW.

Dimensions
The Mazda MAZDA6 is a little heavier than the BMW Z4. Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Mazda than the Z4 because of its larger tank. The BMW fits in smaller parking spaces than the Mazda MAZDA6. The Z4's shorter wheelbase may produce a less-settled highway ride but a more agile feel in daily traffic than the Mazda MAZDA6.

Handling
With its front-wheel drive layout, the Mazda likely has better traction in rain, snow or ice than the BMW Z4; on the other hand, the BMW Z4's rear-wheel drive layout likely provides better weight distribution. The BMW Z4 and the MAZDA6 have approximately comparable tires. With its tighter turning circle, the BMW Z4 is quite certainly sprier than the Mazda MAZDA6, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the flip side, remember that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
Torque is the force that lets you accelerate quickly, and in this respect, the BMW Z4 is significantly more powerful than the Mazda. The Mazda MAZDA6 could learn a lesson or two from the BMW Z4 when it comes to torque.

Overview
The basic after-sale protection that comes with the Mazda MAZDA6 isn't quite as generous as the BMW Z4's.
