New Mazda 6 vs used Volkswagen Arteon – alternatives
If the Mazda 6 doesn’t quite have enough space for you, try a Skoda Superb. With the amount of rear leg room it has, it really ought to be sold as a limo. It’ll also ride with more compliance than the sportier Mazda and knocks it for six when it comes to loading up the boot – it's truly cavernous.
Perhaps the Volkswagen badge isn’t quite premium enough for some. For such people, a used BMW 4 Series Gran Coupé may fit the bill. You’ll lose out on interior space, but gain more engaging handling and one of the best infotainment systems in the business.

Remember on the previous page where we mentioned the difference in depreciation between these two cars? Well, the Arteon is expected to be worth just over £4500 more than the 6 over three years.

The Arteon is also much better equipped and feels far more modern and luxurious inside. Credit to the Mazda 6 for being a very good executive car, it’s just that on this occasion it is rather outclassed by the Volkswagen, which is why a used Arteon is the better buy, and the perfect choice for your suburban driveway.
