Engine and Transmission
The Mazda2 Hybrid is the perfect option for those environmentally conscious as the new model provides drivers with the best of both petrol and electric worlds, without the need to ever use a charging cable. Thanks to the long-standing collaboration between the Mazda and Toyota brands, the Mazda2 Hybrid is based upon the successful Toyota Yaris and is a self-charging, full hybrid that combines a 1.5-litre 93PS petrol engine with a 59kW electric motor for a total power of 116 PS. Due to the car’s hybrid nature, this means that the Mazda2 Hybrid offers better fuel economy of between 70.6 to 74.3mpg, and zero tailpipe emissions when driving in EV mode.
Hybrid Technology
The Mazda2 Hybrid uses smart hybrid technology to switch between electric, petrol, or a mix of both fuel types to ensure you get optimal performance in all situations without having to change your lifestyle, schedule or driving habits. The Mazda2 Hybrid is a self-charging full hybrid, meaning it features technology that recaptures otherwise lost energy when the vehicle slows down which is then stored by the lithium-ion battery and used to drive the front wheels when circumstances allow, meaning you can drive further on a tank of fuel whilst also contributing to lower CO₂ emissions.
