Mazda 2 2007-2014 Specifications

The 2007-2014 Mazda 2 offers two engine options: a 1.3L MZR inline-4 producing 75 hp and 84 lb-ft of torque, and a 1.5L MZR inline-4 producing 103 hp and 101 lb-ft of torque. The 1.5L engine provides better acceleration and higher top speed, making it ideal for highway driving, while the 1.3L engine is more fuel-efficient and suited for city driving.

The Mazda 2 is available with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The manual transmission offers a more engaging driving experience, while the automatic provides smoother shifts and ease of use in urban environments.

Standard safety features include dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, and a reinforced safety cage. Optional features include side airbags, curtain airbags, and electronic stability control (ESC) on higher trims.

The Mazda 2 achieves an EPA-estimated 29 mpg city and 35 mpg highway with the 1.5L engine, which is competitive with vehicles like the Honda Fit and Toyota Yaris from the same era.

Mazda recommends oil changes every 7,500 miles or 6 months, tire rotations every 5,000 miles, and a comprehensive inspection every 15,000 miles. Brake fluid should be replaced every 2 years or 30,000 miles.

Standard features include air conditioning, power windows, and a 4-speaker audio system. Higher trims offer options like a touchscreen infotainment system, keyless entry, and alloy wheels.

The Mazda 2 offers 13.3 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up and 27.8 cubic feet with them folded. This is slightly less than the Honda Fit but comparable to the Toyota Yaris.

The Mazda 2 is not designed for towing. The maximum payload capacity is approximately 850 lbs, including passengers and cargo.
