What the Mazda Mazda6 sticker says about fuel
Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the Mazda6, latest tested year 2021:
The label also prints an estimated $1,800 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles.
How the Mazda6's sticker figure changed
Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2003 to 2021. Worth checking before you compare a Mazda6 sticker from one year with another:
Over that span the combined figure rose by 13 mpg, so an early sticker and a recent one describe noticeably different cars. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.
Safety ratings printed on the label
The second required block: NHTSA's five-star crash results. This is what the Mazda6 sticker carries as of its 2021 rating:
Stars are awarded per test, so a car can hold five overall and fewer for rollover — tall vehicles usually give ground there. Compare against every rated model in the safest cars ranking.

Where to find the VIN on a Mazda Mazda6
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every Mazda6, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Mazda Mazda6 all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Mazda Mazda6 whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
