FactSold in the US as the Scion iA, it was the brand's only four-door sedan and the only Scion not built in Japan.
Mazda unveiled the third-generation Mazda2 hatchback in July 2014, previewed by the Hazumi concept, with "Kodo" design and Skyactiv engines, transmissions, body and chassis loosely derived from the CX-5; the sedan followed in November 2014. Built in Japan, Thailand and Mexico, it was not sold by Mazda in the US or Canada, where Toyota sold it from 2016 to 2020 as the Scion iA and Toyota Yaris iA / Yaris. The Demio was the 2014–2015 Japan Car of the Year, and from the 2019 facelift the Japanese car took the Mazda2 name. Engines include 1.3 and 1.5-litre Skyactiv-G petrol units, a 1.5 Skyactiv-D diesel, a 1.5 mild hybrid and, from 2024 in Colombia, a 2.0.

Owning one
An estimate, for the 1.3 Skyactiv-G (92 hp) trim: fuel on its EPA figure and a dated national price, upkeep on a per-mile average for the kind of car it is.

Sold in the US as the Scion iA, it was the brand's only four-door sedan and the only Scion not built in Japan.

Mazda built this generation of the 2 in Mexico, then refused to sell it in the US or Canada under its own name — Toyota badged it instead, first as the Scion iA and later as the Toyota Yaris.

China got a sunroof nobody else could order: the Chinese-built Mazda2 was the only market worldwide offered one on this generation.

European Mazda2s took their pedal box straight from the Ford Fiesta and had their own 4x108 wheel bolt pattern instead of 4x100.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.

Japan was a minor market for the Swift: when it passed 2 million sales in 2011, about 39% were in India and 27% in Europe, against roughly 15% at home.

To adapt the Horizon for America, Chrysler bought nearly 100 Volkswagen Rabbits purely to reverse engineer them.

The Mk3 Focus RS's AWD system could send 100 percent of engine power to the rear wheels alone — built not in Ford's home country, but at the Saarlouis plant in Germany.

In June 2003, a Mégane II became the subject of the first ever live televised crash test with a real human driver at the wheel instead of a dummy — filmed by Top Gear.

This Wagon R redesigned its rear doors specifically to kill off the D-pillar — bigger doors with built-in quarter glass solved what earlier generations needed a whole extra pillar for.

The BX was the UK's best-selling diesel car for four years from 1987, and 2,315,739 were built in all.

Six months before Suzuki retired the Fronte name for good, the CN11S's 796cc version was already being built in China under a completely different name: the Anchi 6330.

Built to use up Chrysler-Simca's parts bin, it took its engine and gearbox straight from the front-wheel-drive Simca 1100 but mounted them amidships instead.
