    Will this be the next Mazda 2 sub compact hatchback? There's a magazine picture circulating around the net about Mazda's next sub-compact.

    Toyota will be lucky to have a taste of Mazda's SkyActiv technology then.

    I'm betting that it will just be a rebadge model for South American market. The Demio/2 and Yaris life cycle just isn't aligned to serve as basis to one another. The new Yaris was introduced last 2012. The Demio/2 is been around since 2008.

    What complicates this situation is that their was another Yaris launched in China alongside the Vios.

    Anyway, I don't think that the image posted on facebook is the next Mazda 2 since the grill is a dead ringer for that of the Kodo-fied CX-9. Probably just a render.



    Edit:

    Even the headlights, for that matter, look like chopped versions of that of the CX-9.

    Pogi but probably not the final look yet. Artist used the current body and grafted it with a Mazda 6 front clip. Exciting to see the concept though. If recent Mazda concepts are anything to go by, then this concept should look almost the same as the real thing.

    New teaser of the Concept Hazumi. Looks nice, IMO. And though not obvious because of the exaggerated wheel wells, the bonnet will seem to be longer than normal for a FWD car. A trait that all new Mazdas have, from the CX5, all new 3 and 6.

    If they're going to go SkyActiv on the Mazda 2, I really hope they get very good fuel economy numbers. Design-wise, I believe they'll pull it off (with CX-5, 6, and 3 leading their classes in style for me) so they must squeeze in the economy and functionality traits to the 2 and they'll have a hot-selling product.

    Excuse me, but the term which is more accurate is that they were killed by FGP. Ford Phils, knew that Ford and Mazda will be separating soon. And honestly, people who considers Fords also cross shops on Mazda. They knew Mazda has a potential to cannibalize Ford sales. So, they priced a terribly underspecced Mazda 3 2.0 sedan last 2011 which was already late in the game, with short listed specs and carry over engines while they are preparing to launch their Focus sedan with all the bells and whistles and latest gadgets for almost the same price. I think that's just how you kill an enemy. So when Berjaya came in to the rescue, they were having a hard time cleaning the mess Ford made.

    I hope they get it right next time. If the Manual transmission of the early CX5 is an indication, I hope they would fit one as a tranny choice on the upcoming Mazda 2 and 3 1.5L SkyActiv-G.

    More pics here. Although this is just a concept, I'm sure the production version is close to this

    That is a really good looking car! Mazda is really stepping up. If pricing is right, tapos na ang laban for sure. I hope more buyers are aware how good mazda has been. Puro toyota nalang at mitsubishi
