2012 Mazda 2

[lamborghinione]

The rumored 2012 Mazda 2 designed to deliver 30km/L(World's fuel efficient car beating hybrids), will carry
Mazda's SKY active technologies below:The 2 still likes to smile.



1. SKYACTIV-G
A next-generation highly-efficient direct-injection gasoline engine that
achieves the world’s highest gasoline engine compression ratio of 14.0:1
with no abnormal combustion (knocking)
- The world’s first gasoline engine for mass production vehicles to
achieve a high compression ratio of 14.0:1
- Significantly improved engine efficiency thanks to the high compression
combustion, resulting in 15 percent increases in fuel efficiency and torque
- Improved everyday driving thanks to increased torque at low- to
mid-engine speeds
- A 4-2-1 exhaust system, cavity pistons, multihole injectors and other
innovations enable the high compression ratio

2. SKYACTIV-D
A next-generation clean diesel engine that will meet global emissions
regulations without expensive NOx aftertreatments — urea selective
catalytic reduction (SCR) or a Lean NOx Trap (LNT) — thanks to the world’s lowest diesel engine compression ratio of 14.0:1
- 20 percent better fuel efficiency thanks to the low compression
ratio of 14.0:1
- A new two-stage turbocharger realizes smooth and linear response from
low to high engine speeds, and greatly increases low- and high-end torque(up to the 5,200 rpm rev limit)
- Complies with global emissions regulations (Euro6 in Europe, Tier2Bin5
in North America, and the Post New Long-Term Regulations in Japan),
without expensive NOx aftertreatment

3. SKYACTIV-Drive
A next-generation highly efficient automatic transmission that achieves
excellent torque transfer efficiency through a wider lock-up range and
features the best attributes of all transmission types
- Combines all the advantages of conventional automatic transmissions,
continuously variable transmissions, and dual clutch transmissions
- A dramatically widened lock-up range improves torque transfer efficiency
and realizes a direct driving feel that is equivalent to a manual
transmission
- A 4-to-7 percent improvement in fuel economy compared to the current
transmission

4. SKYACTIV-MT
A light and compact next-generation manual transmission with crisp and
light shift feel like that of a sports car, optimized for a front-engined
front-wheel-drive layout
- Short stroke and light shift feel
- Significantly reduced size and weight due to a revised structure
- More efficient vehicle packaging thanks to its compact size
- Improved fuel economy due to reduced internal friction

5. SKYACTIV-Body
A next-generation lightweight, highly-rigid body with outstanding crash
safety performance and high rigidity for greater driving pleasure
- High rigidity and lightness (8 percent lighter, 30 percent more rigid)
- Outstanding crash safety performance and lightness
- A “straight structure” in which each part of the frame is configured to
be as straight as possible. Additionally, a “continuous framework”
approach was adopted in which each section functions in a coordinated
manner with the other connecting sections
- Reduced weight through optimized bonding methods and expanded use of high-tensile steel

6. SKYACTIV-Chassis
A next-generation high-performance lightweight chassis that balances
precise handling with a comfortable ride feel to realize driving pleasure
- Newly developed front strut and rear multilink suspension ensures high
rigidity and lightness (The entire chassis is 14 percent lighter than the
previous version.)
- Mid-speed agility and high-speed stability — enhanced ride quality at
all speeds achieved through a revision of the functional allocation of all
the suspension and steering components

para talagang nakangiiti etong mazda2. gustong gusto sa mga kodakan. hehe.

[ilovetwodie]

i like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wanna get one again!!!!!!!!!!! woo!!! superb!

[caloyski5]

bring in everything except the design.. the current one looks waaay better imho. ngayon kasi taong nakangiti, yung design na yan parang taong bigay todo ang tawa

[foifoi05]

looks like a photoshop to me

[chyll2]

hehe nakakatawa lang yung marketing side.. ang daming skyactive components.

sana nilagyan na rin ng skyactive rims, skyactive lights, skyactive etc..


anyway, I am still doubtful about the 30kml mark, but if they can deliver 20kml+, then sulit na rin.. sa design, I think di sya big departure from the current Mazda 2 and I really think the the current hatch is better looking as compared to this.
