Such a nice interior. Worth the spec upgrade

Great small car...this and the VW polo is my favourite in this class

​ CarsGuide ITS COMING IN 2019 the part of the year! Its on the TOYOTA website as the yaris hatchback and its made by MAZDA on the inside engine decals and stamps on the interior of the car! WITH LED EVERYTHING to include fog lights!

Do you think this would be a good first car?

[estebanposadaduque]

... Friend I just made myself a demo that belonged to VEHICULOS DEL CAMINO (agency in Medellin) ... Gran Touring LX Sedan (red mazda) ... 2020 model with only 4 thousand kms I am happy ! ... and you know that I am fascinated by everything: it also has a CD system ...

Wished bad Mazda would make a Fiesta ST rival.

[inarattarani]

Is the leather on the seats genuine leather, or synthetic/PU fake leather? I can't find the precise information anywhere

[tuanh_duong]

Why can’t Mazda bring this to the States!?! 😭

[lukuscannon]

Actually the GT comes with a 1.5 81 kW engine you are thinking of the lower grade Mazda 2 which comes with the 1.5 l 79 kW engine

[Magdalena-Mabi]

does the top version have apple car included?

[panaoutsios]

Red mazda demio is for love and passion

[PM-doyu]

Pity reviewers always only choose high spec models. Probably succumbing to pressure from manufacturers. Undermines credibility and makes it more of an ad.

[katacc]

Watch this in 1.5x speed, you'll thank me later

Looks are an individual thing. Personally, I don't like 'em at all. I err on the side of "this looks like 2015". NVH has always been a Mazda problem. Body fit hopefully has come a long way since one tested on The Hume & near Benalla, when the rear door popped open for the third time. Price has risen astronomically as well. Yet, Mazda's famous for lots of lovely up market stuff. Why no new 2?

Still no Android auto or carplay... Come on guys!

[anthonywhelan]

I got a manual. Huge mistake. Should be called The Kangaroo.

[clubfan]

Do men buy this car...particularly as a new model?

[sirkokrisz]

It just needs a better sounding engine...
