In North America, the 5-speed automatic optional on the V6 models were replaced by an [[Aisin]] 6-speed automatic for the 2005 model year. The four-cylinder model received a [[Jatco]]FS5A-EL five-speed automatic in the following year. Power was directed to the front wheels in most markets, although full-time [[all-wheel-drive]] models were available in Japan, Europe, and Australia. Not all configurations were available in all areas – for example, the Mazda 6 as released in Australia was available in 2.3L four-cylinder guise only, when the 626 it replaced had been available with a choice of four- or six-cylinder engines. The [[Ford Mondeo V6 engine#Mazda MZI|MZI]] V6 engine was only fitted to vehicles manufactured at Mazda's [[Flat Rock Assembly Plant]] and destined for the U.S. and Canadian domestic markets.{{citation needed|date=February 2021}}
 
Mazda's [[Hofu (Mazda factory)|Hofu Plant]] in [[Yamaguchi Prefecture]] produced the Mazda6 for international markets from February 2002 to August 2007. In North America, Mazda6 production was handled at the [[Flat Rock Assembly Plant|AutoAlliance International]] plant in [[Flat Rock, Michigan]]. The first Mazda6 rolled off the AAI assembly line on October 1, 2002, one month after 626 production ended. There are also satellite plants building Mazda6 models in China and [[Thailand]] for local markets.
