The first of a new generation of B-segment contenders from Mazda was unveiled last week in the form of the Mazda 2 hatchback, but the ‘Zoom Zoom’ company won’t be stopping there. In a world where many car buyers are downsizing their car purchases, one does not simply ignore the B-segment, so Mazda will be building more models on their Mazda 2 platform.
The Mazda 2 hatchback will also spawn a sedan variant, which our friend Theophilus Chin has rendered above. This is of no surprise since the last-generation Mazda 2 also had a sedan bodytype, and the traditional sedan is a popular body style in many high growth markets.
After the sedan, Mazda will also be building a small crossover SUV based on the Mazda 2. Based on the current Mazda SUV line-up’s naming scheme, this small SUV will most likely be called the Mazda CX-3, reflecting its positioning as a smaller model than the Mazda CX-5. It will compete against other freshly hatched B-segment SUVs such as the Honda HR-V a.k.a. Vezel, the Ford EcoSport and the Peugeot 2008.

Sweet..take my money mazda…
Waiting for Ah Beng the Proton supporter to come here and say, Proton GSC is much better than this Mazda. Then he will flood this thread with nonsense about how greatProton is
Do we really have to bring Proton in every single discussion? Seriously?
Because of Proton, all B-segment car price above 70k while Saga muka tak malu enjoy 40K price.
Competition my ass.
Ok, you don’t like Proton, we all get it, so go come out with a proposal, get involved in the movement or something, put your time and effort for the cause to have Proton priced higher or foreign cars priced lower. Go do that instead of spamming in paultan.org.
You know how there was an annoying Toyota Sam Loo guy here? These no-Proton comments are just as annoying. Go do something about it if you’re really that concerned about the cause instead of spamming online. It’s not going to help and it annoys other readers. Thank you for your understanding.
Yes we are seriously obligated to bring up Potong to ever paultan post. Can’t handle the criticism, please improve or close shop. Thanks
Mazda2 sedan price must be twice Saga price. If not, nanti Proton marah.
haha … i doubt it … looking at the current akward m2 ..
this car lots of wind noise when the windows r down.
Only proton doesn’t have wind noise when the window are down! oh wait i forgot power window rosak haven’t go SC
Shut up and take my money.
i like it pls come below 80k…and come take my money
Significant improvement!!Come on Mazda.Make my choice easier.
AIYO, AGAIN, WIN LIAO LO IF LOOK LIKE THIS.
This car really makes City and Vios look really cheap..
I would say City is on par if not better, the shark fin antenna adds a lot of points. Having said that, this Mazda definitely has a better looking front view.
City and Vios can NEVER compare with Mazda2 because the latter is a GLOBAL car where as the two is only REGIONAL build to suit the local market. Mazda 2 can be found all over the world.
Despite having a longer wheel base for M2 as compared to the previous model.
This M2 will not able to beat the City for rear interior space with longer overhand engine bay and the interior is similar to Suzuki swift.
Mazda 2/3/6/CX5 look good from outside but their interior space is suck and no where near their competitor from Honda City/Civic/accord/CRV.
To beat Honda/Toyota in malaysia, Madza need to redesign the cramp interior space to win more customer.I have many friend wanted to buy the CX 5 but end up getting CRV.
Mazda need to learn from BMW where they have improved their interior space for 3 & 5 series now.
Maybe about time u & you friend slim down….wakakaka
i don think cx5 is a lot smaller than the current crv….crv is bigger but it seems that the space has been used better in the cx5. i do commend that the previous gen crv was larger and space was used better
argh! how i wish the diesel version is introduce here together with EUro4 !!! it would be most economical car in market !
Yes, I agree….. but our diesel SUCKS!! I heard Mazda’s Clean Diesel already comply to EURO 6 and does not require any NOX treatment.
wow… if the new mazda2 really looks like theo’s… that would be simply awesome!!!
shut up and take my mon… sorry, i forget i’m poor…. :(
