According to Mazda, the 2014 Mazda6 was designed to be a
game-changer in the mid-size vehicle segment. An adaptation of
Mazda's TAKERI concept, the all-new Mazda6 incorporates the
automaker's KODO "Soul of Motion" design language, featuring
dynamic exterior styling with a strong presence and excellent
aerodynamics, an upscale interior with premium materials, and an
outstanding balance of ride comfort, stability and a fun-to-drive
demeanor.
Adding to the stylish performance of the 2014 Mazda6 will be
Dunlop's SP Sport 5000 tire–exclusive on the vehicle's 19-inch
fitment in size P225/45R19.
"Mazda and Dunlop share a passion for style, quality, innovation
and performance," said Garth Ely,
Dunlop's director of brand marketing. "So, Mazda's choice of Dunlop
tires for the all-new Mazda6 is great reflection of the character
of the Dunlop brand."
The Dunlop SP Sport 5000 is a stylish, high-performance
all-season tire which offers confident traction and a smooth, quiet
ride. An asymmetrical tread pattern helps deliver superb dry and
wet handling, while a high-performance tread compound provides
enhanced grip and control in a range of driving conditions.
Jointless Band Technology helps maintain the tire's shape, enabling
smooth performance at highway speeds.
