Mazda 2 2015 - Toyota Yaris Forums

junorico24 · 12-08-2015, 01:08 AM

My wife is getting one i will find out what the BUZZ is all about.We looked at the accent 1.4 active i got to test drive.It didn't impress me! It felt under powered. The ride was kind of on par with the yaris but was less fidgety over uneven surfaces.
The Mazda 2 max has some impressive kit of goodies and is good looking can't wait to drive it.

Any one wish toyota was Mazda?
Build exciting cars..

The Miata is a ledgend and Ive had a few of those.

If the water pump on my Yaris fails again Im going to consider a M2 if I ever buy another car.

I have said in many of my reviews that every Mazda has a little Miata in it. Lots of fun vehicles. If the Mazda2 hatchback ever does make it to the U.S. (doubtful), it'd likely be my next car.

We used to, but not anymore. Mazda said it's focusing on more profitable cars, now that the price of gasoline has gone so low. Not as much demand for a B-segment car. We do, however, get the Scion iA, which is a Mazda2 sedan with a Scion badge that's sold at Toyota dealers.

Here's my review of it.

I can't go back to a sedan, however. Just can't do it.

Wow, good job Toyota the front end looks like a CARP (fish). And the yaris isn't any better it looks like Darth Vader.

We're getting the Sedan because we have a toddler and planning on another one so the extra trunk space is a bonus.

Considering that the Canadian 2016 Yaris sedan is a re-branded Mazda2 sedan, how much do you want to bet that the next North American Yaris will be a re-branded Mazda2 Hatchback, built at the same factory in Mexico? The only question is will Toyota make it as ugly up front as the iA/Yaris-sedan?

Hey, I love my SE/Manual "Darth Vader" Yaris!

Mazda discontinued sales of the Mazda2 in the USA in 2014/2015.

I don't like the looks of the new Mazda 2 hatchback. Has a huge snout.

Just imagine how it's going to look when Toyota plasters the iA snout on that baby.

I'm not a fan of the latest Mazda2/Mazda3 disjointed proportions either, though it still looks better than the latest Corolla, overall IMO.

I personally wouldn't be surprised if Yota disco'ed the Yaris in the US after this gen.
