Company car drivers will benefit from lower tax bills thanks to revisions to the Mazda6 range.

On sale now, the revised range now features 12 hatchback and seven estate models, with prices starting at £16,995.

Economy and emission levels have been improved across the range, with the 129bhp 2.2-litre diesel engine now emitting 138g/km. As a result, it falls one benefit-in-kind tax banding.

In general terms, the diesel-engined models are now 4% more fuel efficient, while CO2 emissions fall on average by nearly 5%.

All diesel models now fall below the 150g/km CO2 level.

Elsewhere, the Mazda6 also benefits from a mild facelift while the suspension and steering systems have been revised to give better refinement.
