The interior remains largely the same, save new piano black trim on the center console, shift knob and door handles, and surrounding the audio and climate controls. <\/p>\n<p>Mazda remains mum on details about the direct-injected four pot, but don&#8217;t be surprised to find the refreshed 2011 Mazda6 in dealers later this year, with the exception of the wagon, which remains a Japan-, Europe- and Australia-only affair.
