History, Development and General Characteristics

Mazda presented the second generation Demio, i.e. the first actual Mazda 2, in 2002. It was named Mazda 2 in every market outside Japan and only the Japanese units kept the ‘Demio’ name. Even Ford no longer sold the Festiva Mini Wagon badged version.

Nevertheless, the practical and economic car was still being produced in Valencia, Mazda’s factory in Spain.
The specialists considered the 2002 Mazda 2 quite more fun to drive and that it would especially please the young-aged drivers for its practical handling. The 2nd generation Demio was produced until 2006.
