New Mazda2 pricing and spec announced

The all-new Mazda2 is now on sale in Ireland with first customer deliveries expected in March. The car competes in the highly competitive B-segment, writes Trish Whelan.

This is the fourth member of Mazda's current model generation with SKYACTIV technology.

The 5-door is available in SKYACTIV-G 1.5 petrol 75hp and 90hp and SKYACTIV-D diesel 105hp engines. Manual and automatic transmissions are offered.

Four grades are offered - SE, Executive, Executive SE and GT. Optional style packs are available.

Technology includes a 7-inch touch-screen and MZD Connectivity system. Active safety features include a Lane Departure Warning System, Cruise Control and Smart City Brake Support.

Mazda say it represents a huge leap in refinement and practicality versus the outgoing model with features and equipment not offered by any of their competitors.

Prices are from €15,995-€22,295 with C02 emissions from 89g/km (Tax Band A2, Annual Road Tax of €180 to A4 of €200).
