Mazda2: In a new freshness
ChroniquesDuVasteMonde editor Kathrin Tsainis on the Mazda2: "Rather solid pragmatist as seductive pretty thing."
As far as women's facial treatment is concerned, car makers are looking for facelifts: a little refresher that is necessary from time to time, which, of course, is granted to people more often than vehicles. The Mazda2, for example, one of the bestsellers of the Japanese manufacturer in Europe, has been given three years to shoot a few screws.
Now acts the city runabout, the 2008 title ever World Car of the Year? has housed, with a new front design a little more dynamic, and quite sporty he can also drive, if one chooses the 102-PS variant. Then he starts casually at the traffic light, maneuvering through the city traffic, truck overtaking him on the highway so confidently that my blood pressure does not have to make any big jumps - and all that, even though the Mazda2's engine consumption and CO2 emissions were slightly reduced ,
But the circuit requires more sensitivity than I have to offer: on the way through the five courses, I often land where I did not want to go. Otherwise, the designers have visually increased the interior of the smallest Mazda2 a bit: the cockpit with elements in aluminum and piano lacquer look, the seats with higher quality fabrics.
That he offers a decent safety package with six airbags, speed warning system and light and rain sensor that children - and not too high-legged adults - have good rear space and the divisible back seat can help the trunk to absolutely reasonable size, all that suits him. Because the new Mazda2 is still rather solid pragmatist seductive handsome, but just absolutely skillful.
