The Mazda 2 has a reasonably plush interior, economical mild-hybrid engines and even the entry-level model is very well equipped, too. However, in key areas like refinement, ride comfort, handling, performance and practicality there are a number of other small car rivals which are easier to recommend.

Even this entry-level trim is very well equipped, and includes cruise control, climate control and Mazda’s brilliant 8.0in infotainment system. The higher, more expensive trim levels only really bring some cosmetic tweaks – so this is the trim to go for.

The cheapest engine in the lineup but also the worst. It’s very slow and absolutely gutless, making motorway journeys a real chore.
