Are you on the look out for a new car that settles in comfortably with your company brand? A car that’s economical, available in automatic and looks absolutely stunning – well, I’ve done some snooping around and found the perfect company car for you.
The Mazda 2 has been named the 2008 World Car of the Year up against the Ford Mondeo and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. It’s much admired for its striking design, sporty driving performance and outstanding eco-friendly features. But wait, don’t buy one now… wait for the 2010 Mazda 2 also known as the Demio and take everyone’s breath away!
Earlier this month Mazda Motor Corporation released an official releaseannouncing that it has started production of the Mazda Demio at its new plant in Thailand. This new little number has already been named Car of the Year in more than 20 countries and won more than 50 awards across the world.
The official pictures showed the new Mazda2 with some significant cosmetic improvements. Adopting the styling signature now found on the rest of the Mazda family, the new Mazda2 gets the same five-point ’smile’ lower grille and large, vertical fog light housings.
When it comes to being on the road the Mazda 2 is perfect for your company brand and for the driver. This trendy little diva oozes quality workmanship and along with very impressive ride qualities. It competes with the Toyota Yaris, Nissan Versa, Honda Fit, Chevrolet Aveo and Ford Fiesta. The Mazda is whisper quiet, free of vibrations, rattles and buzzes, visibility is clear, and generously sized windows add to the spacious atmosphere of the interior.
Since eco-friendliness is such a trendy topic for contemporary consumer society you’ll be happy to know that you can ride the environmentally friendly wagon with a car that’s ‘green’ and economical. When looking at CO2 emissions you can expect from 112 g/km in the 1.6L diesel engine up to 125g/km in the 1.3L petrol engine. And when talking fuel efficiency you’re looking at a mere 5.4-litres of petrol per 100 kilometres.
The demand for subcompact cars are booming and the Mazda2 has caused all sorts of fuss in the B-segment car market in South Africa. The Mazda2 would be a great opportunity to associate your company with the values accompanying the Mazda brand. These values include eco-friendliness, trendiness, energetic and fun. I suspect the 2010 version’s eye-catching city slicker to cause many heads to turn.
