Jaguar XF 2015 vs Mazda 6 2018
| Gearbox: | Automatic | Automatic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 2.0 Diesel | 2.0 Petrol | |
| Diesel (Jaguar XF) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Mazda 6) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles. For more information, see the article "Diesel or Petrol: Fuel Economy and Key Differences." | |||

Fuel consumption | |||
| Fuel consumption (l/100km): | 4.3 | 6.2 | |
| Real fuel consumption: | 6.6 l/100km | 7.8 l/100km | |
|
The Jaguar XF is a better choice when it comes to fuel economy. By specification Jaguar XF consumes 1.9 litres less fuel per 100 km than the Mazda 6, which means that by driving the Jaguar XF over 15,000 km in a year you can save 285 litres of fuel. By comparing actual fuel consumption based on user reports, Jaguar XF consumes 1.2 litres less fuel per 100 km than the Mazda 6. | |||

Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | Rear wheel drive (RWD) | Front wheel drive (FWD) | |
| Front-wheel drive cars (Mazda 6) have better traction on slippery roads and when climbing hills, better fuel economy, and are less expensive to purchase. On the disadvantage side, FWD cars usually have less towing capacity, poorer acceleration and harder handling. Rear-wheel drive cars (Jaguar XF) have better handling on dry roads, better acceleration, more even weight distribution and more fun to drive. RWD is also better for towing large loads. The cons of rear-wheel drive are less interior and trunk space and more difficulty maneuvering in wet and snowy conditions. | |||
Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 350'000 km | 420'000 km | |
| Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used, but under equal conditions the average life of a Mazda 6 engine could be longer. | |||
| Engine production duration: | 10 years | 13 years | |
| Engine spread: | Installed on at least 6 other car models, including Land Rover Discovery Sport, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, Jaguar XE | Installed on at least 4 other car models, including Mazda 3, Mazda MX-5, Mazda CX-5, Mazda CX-3 | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. | |||
