All-new Mazda2 wins Japan Car of the Year

The all-new Mazda2 (also known as Mazda Demio) was named the 2014-2015 Car of the Year Japan on 13 October. Mazda’s next-generation supermini is thus the second Mazda to capture the coveted award in three years after the Mazda CX-5 won in 2012-2013. Recently launched in Japan, the all-new Mazda2 is the fourth new-generation Mazda equipped with the full range of SKYACTIV technology to go with its striking KODO – Soul of Motion design. It thus joins the Mazda CX-5, Mazda6 and all-new Mazda3.

The all-new Mazda2 has a wealth of new technology and innovative design features. These include the SKYACTIV-D 1.5-litre, a brand-new clean diesel delivering generous torque together with CO2 emissions under 90g/km, and an extraordinarily ergonomic cabin including the first head-up display in this class and MZD Connect, Mazda's remarkably safe and easy to use in-vehicle connectivity concept. The all-new Mazda2 also comes with the company’s state-of-the-art i-ACTIVSENSE active safety systems.

All passenger cars with expected annual sales of at least 500 units and announced or launched in Japan between 1 November 2013 and 30 September 2014 were eligible for this year's award. The all-new Mazda2 is the fifth Mazda to win it.
