Good little car, though I just took it to get a blue slip (roadworthy) and it failed! Due to a bad oil leak and a ticking noise which turned out to be electric sparks flying in the engine. It's in to get fixed with Mazda but they were unable to give me a replacement car which is really inconvenient considering I bought it brand new to avoid this sort of thing.
Easy to park, good on fuel.

It's fantastic, i couldn't ask for anything better. I just bought another for my misses and she loves it.

I use to have Toyota aurion and traded it in for this one.
Its great!
Its reliable, inexpensive and worth the amount paid. Great value!

The car feels solid and well made. As a not very tall person I found the seat adjustment on the driver's seat excellent and can see out very well. Three adults can fit in the back with plenty of headroom for 6 foot plus guys. The petrol tank is listed as fitting 45 litres, but I have never put in more than 35 litres when flashing empty and this has lasted me about 500 Km. Great power going up hills for a small car!
Very economical and zippy to drive. Lots of room inside and driver's seat adjusts for height.
Clutch can be a bit touchy if you are not used to it.

I love my little car. I know a few people who own one and they are all very happy with their purchase too. I would certainly recommend this car for someone who doesn't need or want a large family sedan.
Just about everything, especially the price! It's bigger than it looks. At first I thought it was a bit small, but then I sat in it and found it quite roomy. Then I drove one and I was sold. I like that it's quite high - certainly improves visibility when driving. I actually like driving this car. It's great for driving around town but there are no problems with 110 km on the highway either.
I don't like the red back light at night - I find it difficult to adjust to. Yellow or blue would be a lot clearer at night.

I bought my Mazda2 just over two years ago. I am still really happy with the car. It is great on fuel. I have had it serviced at my Mazda dealer every 6 months so far. The cost has ranged between $150 - $190. They have been really helpful and checked out any little problems I may have been experiencing. I needed to get a new electronic window switch and they replaced it absolutely free of charge as it was under warranty. They always wash my car too when I take it in.
Stylish, well built, great post-purchase customer service

The Genki is my second Mazda, previous was a 323 .. both are fantastic little cars ... my Genki is yellow, which I wanted .... seat is extremely comfortable, love everything about it, economical, easy to park, etc etc
great to drive, easy to park, economical, looks good, love the yellow .. everyone can see it!

Great car bright green, but the high pitched noise when you get up to 100km,when you take your foot of the gas it stops then when you put your foot on the gas it starts up again. You get quite a headache by the time you drive for a bit. Anybody else have this trouble
Reliable, inexpensive, feels lovely to drive, high seats, easy to get out of and into.
High pitched noise. glove box it weird.

I love love love my Mazda. It has required very little maintenance and performs well under all circumstances. Even though the inside is quite small, it doesn't feel that way. It feels roomy inside even in the back.
I love everything about my Mazda 2. It is stylish, pretty, and wonderful to drive. It is excellent on fuel, has enough grunt to get up hills with ease and corners really well. It over achieved if anything.
I really don't dislike anything about my Mazda 2. There has not been a situation that I've found that the Mazda could not handle itself.

I have never really been a big fan of the Mazda until recently. Since 2004, Mazda has changed and improved to a new level of competitions. The main reason I believe is its new elegant design and powerful engine at such a great price. I had a Mazda 3 hatchback. It wasn't the best car but it was definitely a great car to drive. The Mazda 2 sedan is similar but more affordable and easy to get around. Excellent city car.
Beautiful and stylish design. Good on fuel. Nice and fun to drive. Easy to park.
Can be a little bit noisy at times.

By far the best I've owned, great features. Was comparing to the Honda City decided to go with due to the better features i.e ESP, alloy wheels, 6 CDs stacks and most importantly price! Cannot the Madza 2 sedan you will not be disappointed.
Fuel efficient, massive boot room, safety, excellent drive. Great value for money.
High rear definitely need the rear parking sensors. Only get one remote key.

This is a great car to zip around town in. With a good turning circle overall design it is easy to get in and out of spaces. Comes in a variety of stunning colours. My biggest issue with this vehicle however is the high price paid for a base model and very little interior features. The car is very basic inside and does not really offer any more than the previous model. It is only suited to a smaller driver as there is not much leg room. The seats are also not the most comfortable. A nice car externaly but disapointing inside
A flash little design with good fuel economy
Quite a high price for very little features

The new mazda 2 has come a long way from the previous models and I could not be happier with my car. It its spacious, looks great and travels smoothly. It has a lot of power for a little car and I have had no dramas with it at all. The green is what attracted me to it from the start and I haven't stopped loving it.
Mazda 2 comes in a huge variety of different colours, including the lovely metallic green. They are fuel efficient and come with loads of great features, such as 6 stacker cd player, roomy and power windows. The Maxx and Genki come with mags and nicer seat coverings also.
The fuel tank is small so while it is extremely efficient, I only get around 550 out of a tank before filling up.
