The Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer presented the Mazda 2 Hybrid, which looks similar to the Toyota Yaris. This is the fourth generation of this model from the B segment, which is actually a “copy” of the Toyota model.

The new Mazda 2 will be available to European customers from next year, and it brings a different front bumper and radiator grille, five revised equipment packages: Prime, Centre, Exclusive, Homura and Homura Plus, as well as an additional body color (Glass blue).

The basic equipment package includes keyless unlocking, a USB-C connector and a multimedia system that is compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay applications. Richer equipment packages include 16 and 17-inch aluminum wheels, multi-speaker audio system, front and rear parking sensors, LED lights, dual-zone air conditioning, larger multimedia display, panoramic roof, etc.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Mazda 2 is powered by a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine combined with an electric motor with a total power of 116 hp (85 kW). That’s enough power to propel this small city car to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 9.7 seconds with a top speed of 175 km/h (109 mph). According to WLTP norms, the average fuel consumption is 3.8 liters per 100 kilometers.
