Geneva 2008 : 2 doors down
Under the spotlights at the Mazda stand is a Mazda2 three-door hatchback created especially for the 2008 Geneva Motor Show.
As with the five-door hatchback version, the new Mazda2 three-door hatchback has a roomy interior, despite its compact and dynamic exterior design. The three-door version includes handy walk-in functionally, which tips the seatback forward and slides the passenger seat forward for one of the segment’s widest access widths for easy entry. It then returns to its original position. Once inside, passengers find themselves in a roomy and comfortable interior.
A relatively long wheelbase (2,490 mm), an innovative roof header shape, reduced roof-lining thickness and a lower rear hip point height combine to deliver plenty of head, shoulder and leg room both front and back. The driver’s seat can be slide adjusted up to 250 mm and height adjusted up to 55 mm. This is combined with adjustable steering wheel height and a centre console-mounted manual shift lever for a sporty, wrap- around cockpit with room for people of nearly all shapes and sizes.
Mazda2 three-door hatchback comes with the same petrol powertrain line-up as the five-door hatchback. The base MZR 1.3-litre has variable valve timing and comes in two power derivatives (depending on market): a Standard Power version producing 55 kW/75 PS and a High Power version producing 63 kW/86 PS. Both use just 5.4 litres of petrol per 100 km and produce a low 129 g/km of CO 2 emissions. The largest petrol engine is an MZR 1.5-litre that produces 76 kW/103 PS of power, while using just 5.9 litres of fuel per 100 km and producing 140 g/km of CO2.
Also onboard is a MZ-CD 1.4-litre common-rail turbo diesel, special for the European market, with high fuel efficiency and low emissions. It produces 50 kW/68 PS of maximum power at 4,000 rpm and 160 Nm of torque at a low 2,000 rpm for lively acceleration and driving fun. At the same time, it uses just 4.3 litres of fuel per 100 km (combined) and produces a very low 114 g/km of CO2.
