Speaking to Australia's CarAdvice, Masahiro Moro, Mazda's North American president and CEO, said all-wheel drive won't fit in the current Mazda6. "I think we are not able to combine four-wheel drive and the 2.5-liter turbo. We have a layout issue with the sedans. That's why a four-wheel drive isn?t deployed on the Mazda 3 and 6 so far," he said.

I think this would entice buyers. Also, if the Camry, Accord, Malibu, Optima, Sonata, and Impala had an AWD platform, this may also help sales.

There's a big shift to AWD these days.

The Mazda 6 is a great looking car, just never considered it because of the dismal horsepower numbers.
