Maz power

I currently drive a new Mazda 6 estate auto (petrol). Nice car but limited mid-range torque. Mazda has recently introduced a new range of turbodiesel engines and I have been able to drive the 2.2 litre 160 bhp version that was extremely impressive - better than the Passat 2.0 litre TD. Two questions: have you tried the car with this engine, and does Mazda intend to introduce an auto version?
