Mazda2 Sedan Confirmed For Australia

20th April 2015

Mazda has confirmed that a head-turning sedan will be added to the All-New Mazda2 range later this year.

Returning for the first time since 2010, Mazda2 sedan - like the Mazda6 and Mazda3 sedans before it - incorporates the elegant styling of Mazda's award-winning 'KODO - Soul of Motion' design language.

Like its hatchback sibling, Mazda2 sedan will be available with two transmission types, the 6-speed SKYACTIV-Drive automatic and 6-speed SKYACTIV-MT manual, and with two 1.5 litre petrol engine choices.

The standard SKYACTIV-G petrol engine delivers 79kW of power and 139Nm of torque, while the more powerful high-spec alternative puts out 81kW of power at 6,000rpm and maximum torque of 141Nm at 4,000rpm.

It offers fuel economy figures from as little as 4.9L/100km and Smart City Brake Support will be available as an option across the range.

The sedan joins All-New Mazda2 hatch which has sold 6,128 cars since arriving last November. With more than 4,000 sales in the first quarter of 2015, it is the nation's most popular\* light car.

Mazda Australia's managing director, Martin Benders said: "When we first saw the design for the Mazda2 sedan we decided it was a must-have car. Often B-segment sedans can lack style and design flow, but we believe the Mazda2 sedan is the best looking of its type in its segment. Having a stylish sedan on sale alongside a sporty hatch provides even more choice to light car buyers."
