Baby Mazda Is Hot 2 Trot

Young sports car fans are the next target for Mazda as the Japanese maker prepares to launch a high-performance supermini based on the Mazda 2.

07th January 2004

Codenamed the MX Micro Sport, the newcomer will be aimed directly at the Renaultsport Clio 182 and forthcoming Vauxhall Corsa GSi. The car is powered by the gutsy 150bhp 2.0-litre engine that made its debut in the Mazda 6, and should be capable of reaching a top speed of around 130mph.

Unveiled at this week's Detroit Motor Show, the MX Micro Sport is tipped to go on sale in Japan during the summer and the US a few months later. Depending on public reaction, it could then reach Europe and the UK next year.
