Yesterday Mazda released photos of the new Mazda 2, for production release in late 2008. The sub-compact car is just one of the many that are coming to the US. GM, DCX, BMW, Toyota, Honda, VW, and now Mazda. Mazda is going to be releasing this car right around or near release of many of these other Sub-Compacts are coming to North America.
The design is starting to follow Mazda’s “FLOW” philosophy, also looks very close to BMW’s Flame surface treatment, what ever you call it, it works. This is a very well proportioned 4 door vehicle, with some nice design elements in the rear, with the matte black color break. The car has more wedge then I have ever seen in a production vehicle. Mazde is trying to give it a very sporty look with all that wedge. I will hold further comments until I see this in person.
