SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
Even though the current Mazda6 may be little more than a holdover until a new model comes in 2022, Mazda's midsize sedan still makes an alright option in the market. Despite that, there may be an option to make it more appealing: a wagon version.
Like most good things in the automotive world, though, the Mazda6 wagon isn’t sold in our market.
The wagon version of the Mazda6 can be had with either a 2.5-liter SKYACTIV-G gasoline engine or a 2.2 SKYACTIV-D diesel engine, good for 191 and 185 horsepower, respectively. Depending on the market, either engine can be equipped with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission.
Would a wagon version of the current Mazda6 make it more appealing to you, or would you rather hold out to see what the next-genertaion model has in store?

Always wagon.
If they'd put the 2.5l turbo with a manual in it. I'll take mine with blacked out window trim.
In reply to Colin Wood :
If the tow rating was at least 2,000#, instead of the sedan's 1,000#; I'd be all over it. Otherwise, I'm content with my CX-5 Sport with 6 speed manual....my "Miata on stilts" that DOES have a 2,000# tow rating.
Honestly, not that appealing to me. Its really long.
The 3 hatch is far more appealing.
I have a 3 hatch and I would trade it in for the 6 wagon. Would like the manual though which is unlikely in the US.
False dilemma.
This makes it more appealing and I'm still more curious about the replacement.
The windows look unduly squished, Mazda has lost... er, not lost their way, but they've wandered away from my tastes in the styling department... But as an actual wagon option it absolutely has my attention in a way the sedan absolutely does not.
Are they trying on a new, um, "design language" for the next generation?

Yes
Oh hell yes. 6 months ago we bought a lightly used E400 wagon. If a Mazda6 wagon in signature trim with the turbo motor was available we totally would have bought that new from Mazda. The 3 wasn't big enough and we are one of the 37 people in the US who don't want a small or mid SUV, mostly as we have a real SUV (Suburban 2500) for appropriate use.
