Japanese automaker Mazda announced recently that they would be unveiling a three-door hatchback version of the very popular Mazda2 later this year. According to the company's newsletter, they will be adding the three-door hatchback for the first time in their offered lineup of the Mazda2.
According to Mazda, the Mazda2 three-door hatchback has the same attributes as the five-door hatchback which has become very popular among car enthusiasts. Furthermore, the three-door hatchback was made to look sportier and to handle better. Apart from those attributes, the three-door Mazda2 will also be priced much lower than the five-door Mazda2 variant.
One of the biggest events of its kind, the 78th Geneva International Auto Show, will be where the Japanese automaker will unveil the new variant of the Mazda2. The said motor show will be held from March 4 until March 16 this year. The said event is expected to draw a lot of attention and the new Mazda2 variant is expected to be a show stealer.
Mazda has been known to be focusing on the very stable European auto market. Thus, the Mazda2 variant which they will unveil at the Geneva International Auto Show has been designed to suit the taste of European auto buyers. The automaker gave three available engines for the three-door hatchback. The first one is a 1.3-liter gasoline engine and the second is a slightly bigger 1.5 liter gas engine. The third engine option is the same MZ-CD 1.4-liter common rail turbo diesel found on the five-door hatchback.
True to the automaker's fight against climate change, the three engines have been designed to produce very little greenhouse gas. This is achieved while not sacrificing the performance that consumers have expected from the Japanese automaker.
To date, the Mazda2 has already received much praise and awards. According to the company's newsletter, the Mazda2 has received awards from different countries. "Launched in September 2007 as Mazda's first new-generation Zoom-Zoom vehicle to evolve to the next level, the new Mazda2 was an immediate hit with European customers," reads the company's newsletter.
