Like the five-door, the new three-door weighs in at less than 1,000kg and despite the low kerb weight it should still score a 5-Star Euro-NCAP safety rating just as its bigger brother did last December. This latest announcement brings the Mazda2 range to a total of three vehicles, the other two cars being the regular five-door and Chinese market sedan model. Now all we need is the high-performance MPS-Mazdaspeed version.
Mazda will also use the Geneva show for the European debut of the Taiki concept car and next-generation rotary engine, the Mazda5 Hydrogen RE Hybrid and the facelifted RX-8 sports car.
