While the Mazda2 appears to be a mere subcompact, it is actually a high-powered sports car that's engineered for performance. Hop in the spacious cabin with four of your friends and chill out with a cool air conditioning system. Plug in your iPod or cell phone into a front console area 12-volt power outlet and provide the ideal soundtrack by connecting it to an auxiliary input jack.
Its black gauges with white lettering and nighttime illumination provide a futuristic vibe and are always highly visible. Also present is a system of advanced safety measures, including front, side-impact, and side air curtain airbags, along with front safety-belt pretensioners with force limiters and 3-point safety belts for all seating positions.
The Mazda2's 1.5 liter, 4-cylinder engine works with a front-wheel drive to get an incredible 35 mpg on the highway. It also utilizes a rack and pinion steering system and has a rear spoiler and all-season tires.
