New GT and GT Sport models spearhead updated Mazda2 range in the U.K.

Mazda has announced a host of updates and changes to its highly acclaimed Mazda2 range in the U.K. Highlights across all models include the introduction of Mazda's G-Vectoring Control technology and detailed improvements to the suspension and steering to deliver improved ride comfort and steering response. In addition, interior upgrades include new seat fabrics, a new steering wheel and enhanced sound insulation.

Thanks to its KODO: Soul of Motion design and SkyActiv technology, the current Mazda2 sets new standards for a Mazda supermini. Launched in 2015, its combination of sharp handling, attractive styling and efficient engines helped it stand out in the ultra-competitive small car sector. Now subtle enhancements, and the launch of two new models - GT and GT Sport - are designed to keep the Mazda2 at the forefront of this ever popular segment.

Now exclusively offered with Mazda's 1.5-litre SkyActiv-G petrol engine, the simplified eight-model Mazda2 comes in both SE and SE-L trim for the 74bhp engine variant. The 89bhp version is offered in SE-L Nav, Sport Nav and GT trim while the 113bhp output engine is exclusively matched to the flagship GT Sport and a six-speed manual gearbox.
