Questions people ask
How much can a Mazda Mazda6 tow?
Mazda publishes no towing rating for it: "Your Mazda is not designed for towing. Never tow a trailer with your Mazda."
Can I add a hitch to the Mazda6?
A hitch doesn't create a rating. Without one from Mazda, there is no trailer weight the Mazda6 is rated to pull — check your owner's manual before fitting one.
