Hiley Mazda Of Hurst

2011 Mazda Mazda2


Due: July 2010

Starting Price: $13,980



For those that like their micro cars with a bit of “zoom-zoom,” Mazda introduces its Mazda2 mini hatchback -- which trumps Toyota’s Yaris in the fun department. The Yaris provides 106 horsepower (six more than the Mazda2), but the Mazda2 is tuned for a more exciting ride. And while the Yaris is no ugly duckling, the Mazda2 is definitely the better-looking of the two. Inside, though, is where the Mazda2 really wins. It features a clean layout and satisfying list of standard features -- including an auxiliary jack for MP3 players and keyless entry. Meanwhile, the Yaris forces folks to pay extra for power door locks and windows, and even an audio system.
