Mazda2 Hybrid | the ultimate urban hybrid

  • With unique to Mazda styling features the Mazda2 Hybrid is the perfect urban hybrid.
  • Line-up in the UK features Centre-Line, Exclusive-Line, Homura and Homura Plus grades.
  • Mazda’s solus B-segment offering – delivers an economical small hybrid solution.

 

The latest Mazda2 Hybrid has a more differentiated design appearance thanks to a new, and unique to Mazda, front bumper and grille design. Designed at Mazda’s European Design Studio in Germany, the revised bumper shape combined with unique rear tailgate garnish gives the latest Mazda2 Hybrid a fresh and independent look.

Launched in May 2022, the Mazda2 Hybrid has proven to be a popular addition to Mazda’s line-up, offering customers looking for an efficient and good to drive small hybrid, a solution that benefits from established and class-leading technology.

Updated in 2024, the latest Mazda2 Hybrid is available in four grades: Centre-Line, Exclusive-Line, Homura and Homura Plus. Alongside the Mazda specific elements to the exterior design, the latest Mazda2 Hybrid features connectivity and entertainment upgrades across the range, including wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a colour touch screen central display.

Exclusive-Line models and upwards feature new equipment that includes auto-folding mirrors, Blind-Spot Monitoring, plus front and rear parking sensors, while at the top of the range the Homura and Homura Plus grades feature a new digital instrument binnacle and black roof lining. Exclusive to Homura Plus grade, the Mazda2 Hybrid also features integrated navigation and a panoramic glass roof.

Part of Mazda’s electrified line-up that includes the Mazda CX-60 PHEV, all-new Mazda CX-80 PHEV and Mazda MX-30 e-Skyactiv R-EV PHEV - the Mazda2 Hybrid brings a self-charging full hybrid powertrain technology to the Mazda model range. Part of the long-standing collaboration between Mazda Motor Corporation and Toyota Motor Corporation, this Toyota Motor Europe OEM supplied model features a more Mazda differentiated exterior design but retains an unchanged drivetrain.  

With a combined power output of 116ps driven via a CVT automatic transmission, the Mazda2 Hybrid accelerates from 0-62mph in 9.7 seconds and returns a WLTP combined cycle fuel economy of between 67.3 to 74.3mpg and CO2 emissions of just 87-98g/km depending on the specification of 16” or 15” wheels.

At start-up the Mazda2 Hybrid automatically runs in EV mode, offering smooth, seamless and quiet running on electric motor power in urban environments, with zero CO2, NOx and particulate emissions. During normal driving, power allocation is adjusted between the petrol engine and electric motor for optimum performance and the best possible fuel efficiency. During deceleration and under braking, kinetic energy is recovered as electrical energy for storage in the high-performance battery.

Battery power level is constantly managed via an engine-driven generator to remove any need to recharge the system from an external source. Although it is a compact B-segment vehicle, the new Mazda2 Hybrid’s long 2,560 mm wheelbase offers comfortable accommodation for up to four adults, as well as 286 litres of boot space.

Jeremy Thomson, Managing Director Mazda UK said: “the Mazda2 Hybrid has proved to be a popular addition to our line-up in the UK, so it’s great that we now have a car with a greater element of Mazda exterior design personality. With the latest Mazda2 Hybrid we are ensuring customers in the supermini segment still have the choice of a Mazda in a sector that has seen several key models disappear in recent months.”
