city

The little Mazda in the city definitely feels at home: it is smooth and agile, and the combination of easy handling and direct steering makes it ideal for getting around in traffic.

Il engine Naturally aspirated four-cylinder 90 hp engine and 148 Nm provides good sprint in the first two gears, but large gear ratios and lack of torque at low revs severely degrade the pickup, forcing the driver to shift gears a couple of gears. to get a good sprint.

By the consumption On the contrary, 1.5 surprised by the lack of thirst, 5,9 l / 100 km in urban conditions are quite worthy of a turbodiesel.

The shock absorbers are quite soft, absorb potholes and bumps well, and vibration from the engine is also minimal. On the other hand, the dimensions (150 cm high, 170 cm wide and 406 cm long) are in line with competitors in the segment.

Power 90 HP allows the little Japanese to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in 9,4 seconds and reach a top speed of 183 km / h.

Lack of turbocharging severely degrades sprint, but balanced chassis, short travel 5-speed gearbox and the engine that kicks in at high revs makes it pretty interesting even in mixed mode.

шосе

On the track, thanks to the very long fifth wheel coupling, the engine is practically inaudible. There is a rustle at high revs, but nothing shocking. Standard cruise control and head-up display (a system that allows you to display speed and other data on the screen) make the Mazda2 a real car. good travel companion even over long distances.
