mazda-2-to-cost-from-7999

Mazda can be summed up in a single word: bold. Not only do its cars generally look like nothing else on the market, but it’s also invested heavily in innovative engine technology.

So, while many car makers have moved to smaller turbocharged engines, Mazda instead offers larger motors that are still efficient. For example, the entry-level petrol option in the Mazda 3 is a 2.0-litre unit –&nbsp;far larger than what you’ll find in most rivals – but it remains very clean.

Highlights of Mazda’s line-up include the MX-5 sports car, which has won our Convertible of the Year Award multiple times, and the CX-5 large SUV, which was named as our inaugural best car for dog owners.

The three-door model of the Mazda 2 will cost from 7999, and it's on sale now. The car is available with 74bhp and 84bhp versions of a 1.3-litre petrol engine or a 67bhp 1.4-litre diesel engine. A 101bhp 1.5-litre petrol motor will be added from the end of July. There are three trims: TS, TS2 and TS2. Standard kit is the same as the five-door model's, although the front seats tilt and slide to allow access to the back, the rear windows are not electric and the side sills available with the Sports Styling Kit are a different design.

The car is expected to get a five-star Euro NCAP rating, as achieved by the five-door model.
