Earlier this year, Bermaz Auto launched the 2020 Mazda 2 1.5 Hatchback facelift in Malaysia. It is a fully-imported (CBU) model from Thailand and only a single variant is offered – the 1.5 SkyActiv-G which comes with i-Stop idling technology. There is even a sedan version available for those who want extra boot space. The naturally-aspirated 1.5-litre 4-cylinder engine produces 114 PS @ 6,000 rpm and 149 Nm @ 4,000 rpm, which powers the front wheels via a 6-speed SkyActiv-Drive automatic transmi

There are plenty of choices in the B-segment hatchback market, for Mazda, the model that represents the brand in this segment is the Mazda 2 hatchback. How much is Mazda 2 Hatchback? Bermaz Motors currently has 2 variants in their line-up. Both variants share the same 1.5-litre engine and are equipped with G-Vectoring Control. The only difference between the 2 variants are on the appearance - LED projector headlamps, keyless operation and the infotainment system in the top spec variant versus ha

(Model | Gallery) What you're looking at on this page is the Mazda 2 Hatchback Mid. The lower and more affordable Mazda 2 was introduced when Bermaz Motors introduced the facelift with G-Vectoring Control version to our shores. With the 2 Mid, you lose all of Mazda's infotainment system that you get on the higher spec car like the MZD Connect, the touch screen display and even the head-up display. The higher spec Mazda 2 is priced at RM 94,670 without the signature Kodo Red, this puts the 2 Mid

Earlier this year, the 2020 Mazda 2 1.5 Hatchback facelift with Mazda 2 skyactiv arrived on our shores. Being a fully-imported model from Thailand, it's priced at a rather heady RM 103,670 (OTR with SST). That makes it the most expensive B-segment hatchback in Malaysia. There is only one spec available, both the hatchback and sedan have identical specifications and price. Sadly, airbag count remains at 2 despite the facelift. The 2020 Mazda 2 1.5 Hatchback with Mazda 2 skyactiv is indeed pricey

Sudah jadi lumrah dunia, yang cantik-cantik selalunya direbuti dan susah nak dapat. Apa yang kita orang biasa-biasa boleh buat hanyalah memandang dari jauh dan pasang angan-angan percuma. Tapi, bila bercakap pasal apa yang cantik, pasti lain orang lain pendapatnya. Kecantikan itu cukup subjektif, ia bergantung kepada minat dan persepsi masing-masing. Kita juga perlu ingat yang kereta-kereta cantik tak semestinya kereta mahal saja. Ada saja kereta-kereta biasa di luar sana yang cukup cantik dan b

Eye candies are usually exquisite works of art that seem to be out of reach for many of us. Whether they’re models, artworks, or even cars, these beauties can’t be experienced by many of us regular folk. But hang on, as the overused saying goes: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Calling something pretty or beautiful is purely subjective. For some of us, we enjoy the beauty in what some might consider the mundane. Let’s face it, some of us would much rather get the girl next door than a super

Baru-baru ini, Toyota telah mendaftar tanda dagang nama dan reka bentuk Corolla Hatchback di Vietnam. Secara tak langsung timbul spekulasi bahawa model ini bakal diperkenalkan di negara tersebut. Pendaftaran tanda dagang tersebut dilaporkan oleh media Vietnam, dan nama Corolla Hatchback in adalah antara nama lain yang didaftarkan oleh Toyota di Vietnam. Ini kerana pesaing seperti Mazda menawarkan variant sedan dan hatchback bagi model Mazda 3 di Vietnam walaupun model sedan lebih laris. Toyota C

Mazda 2 mungkin merupakan hatchback yang tua di pasaran, namun ia masih diminati ramai peminat pemanduan. Ini juga bermakna generasi baru mungkin boleh membuat debutnya pada tahun 2021 selepas 7 tahun di pasaran. Laman web automotif Jepun Best Car Web telah menghasilkan beberapa imej lakar Mazda 2 generasi akan datang. Anda dapat lihat falsafah reka bentuk Kodo yang sama dengan Mazda 3 Hatchback yang sangat cantik. Malah bahagian belakangnya mempunyai penampilan yang nampak seperti mini-Mazda 3.

The Mazda 2 may be an ageing car but it’s definitely one that is catered to enthusiasts. With that being said, after 7 years on the market, the Mazda 2 is definitely due for a new generation that could debut in 2021. As we had reported before, the team over at Best Car Web has produced some interesting renders of what the next-gen Mazda 2 could look like. Judging by the renders, the Mazda 2 could retain the same Kodo design philosophy of the fantastically gorgeous Mazda 3 Hatchback. Even the rea

As you know, the Mazda 3 comes in two body types, a sedan and a hatchback (which distributor Bermaz Auto prefers to call it a Liftback). Nameplates aside, the Mazda 3 family actually includes an SUV (or if you insist, crossover). The Mazda CX-30 is essentially a jacked up, shorter wheelbase version of the Mazda 3. Distance between the wheels is 70 mm shorter, with a 40 mm taller ground clearance. The shorter wheelbase also means that the CX-30 has less legroom in the rear than in the Mazda 3, it

Toyota recently registered both the Corolla Hatchback’s name and design in Vietnam, fuelling speculations that the model could be introduced in the country. The trademark filing was reported by Vietnamese media, which mentioned that the Corolla Hatchback was just one of many names registered by Toyota in Vietnam. After all, rivals like Mazda offers both the sedan and hatchback variants of the Mazda 3 in Vietnam, though the sedan variant outsells the hatchback variant by a fair margin. To recap,

Mazda 2这个车型或许已经有些过时了,但它依旧很受车迷们的青睐。不过,尽管如此,但市售了足足7年的Mazda 2,在2021年肯定需要更新换代了。 与我们之前报道的一样,Best Car Web的团队制作了一些下一代Mazda 2的外观假想图。从渲染的图片上看,Mazda 2可能会保留与惊艳的Mazda 3 Hatchback相同的“魂动”家族设计语汇。 连车尾看上去都像是迷你版的Mazda 3,这其实并不是一件坏事。确实,即将退市的Mazda 2也许是最好看的B级掀背车了,但这张假想图中的新一代Mazda 2也一样有着十分惊艳的造型。 不过,最重要的新闻,应该是关于Mazda 2的未来的。我们之前报道过,在欧洲市场上,下一代Mazda 2可能会基于TNGA-B Toyota Yaris(与东南亚地区的Yaris不同)开发。 但从Best Car Web提供的消息来看,下一代的Mazda 2将采用全新的平台设计,至少日版车型是这样的。 所以,欧洲市场得到的是贴牌的TNGA Yaris,而日本市场(希望大马也是) 的Mazda 2则会使用新的定制平台。目前相关的信息还很少,但是据说车

Pasaran hatchback di Thailand ternyata hangat dengan persaingan antara keluaran-keluaran terbaru tahun ini di negara itu.

Like the B-segment sedan market, the B-segment hatchback market is also a very competitive segment. Depending on which hatchback you pick, some are either very practical, or offer class-leading ride and handling prowess.

Unlike the B-segment sedan, the B-segment hatchback isn’t as popular in Thailand. But it is definitely heating up. Topping the B-segment hatchback sales chart for the month of October is the Toyota Yaris which was given a facelift back in August. Toyota sold 2,538 units of the Yaris in the month of October. The Thai-spec Yaris facelift, just like the incoming Malaysian-spec, is equipped with Toyota Safety Sense ADAS suite including pre-collision system (AEB) and lane departure warning. However,

Walaupun Honda Malaysia belum lagi membuat pengumuman rasmi, kami boleh sahkan yang Honda Jazz 2020 generasi keempat (4G) yang juga dikenali sebagai Fit di Jepun tidak akan dilancarkan di Malaysia. Setelah tahun 2021, Honda Jazz baharu sudah tidak akan masuk lagi ke pasaran kita – mengakhiri barisan model 3 generasi sejak 2001. Namun, Honda City Hatchback yang baru saja membuat debut globalnya minggu lepas, akan mengisi kekosongan yang ditinggalkan oleh Jazz. Jika anda tertanya-tanya, Honda Mala

Hot on the heels of the unveiling of the 11th-generation Honda Civic sedan, it looks like its sibling the Honda Civic hatchback is set to make its world debut. We can expect this variant to surface as early as November 2021. According to a Japanese media source, the all-new Civic hatchback will use the same platform as its sedan counterpart, instead of the one in all-new HRV/Vezel (which, in itself is just an improvement of the exisiting platform). In doing so, the powertrain and major trim opti

The Mazda 3 Touring Car Racing (TCR) is the latest addition to Mazda’s motorsports program, which will hit the racetrack in 2020. Information on specifications are scarce but what we do know is that power comes from a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, making 350 horses mated to a 6-speed transmission with paddle shifters. The designers have spent countless hours to ensure that the Mazda 3 TCR is compliant with all TCR regulations and flows with the smooth lines on the Mazda 3, retaining the signat

Bermaz Auto has quietly discontinued the Mid Spec Mazda 2 Hatchback and Sedan in Malaysia, just shy of 2 years since the model was launched here. We understand that Bermaz decided to discontinue the Mid Spec variants is due to the impending price hike for fully imported (CBU) cars that is set to happen in June 2020, as all variants of the Mazda 2 are imported from Thailand. The price hike would mean that the Mid Spec Mazda 2 would be priced too high in the already price-sensitive B-segment marke

Bermaz Auto has opened bookings for the new 2020 Mazda 2 facelift in Malaysia, days after discontinuing the Mid Spec variants of its popular B-segment model. As such, only the high spec variants of the Mazda 2 (with LED headlights) remain.

No, you didn’t read wrongly. What we know as the stylish B-segment Mazda 2 with supreme cornering talent was first launched as a tall hatchback with minivan styling. At least that was how Mazda described the car, but one look at the 2, or at that time known as the Demio, and you immediately see a minivan rather than a B-segment hatchback. When the name Demio was introduced in 2002, it was actually the second generation of the model. A quick search on Google will only bring you back to 2002 but t

Although Honda Malaysia has yet to make any official announcement, we can reliably confirm that the fourth generation (4G) 2020 Honda Jazz (known as Fit in Japan) will not be launched in Malaysia. After 2021, the Honda Jazz will be no more, ending a 3-generations run, since 2001. Instead, the Honda City Hatchback, which made its global debut in Bangkok yesterday, will fill the void left by the Jazz. In case you are wondering, no Honda Malaysia didn’t have much say in this, neither did their coun

Now that the Mazda 2 has been on the market for a full 6 years, it has already lived through a "standard" generation cycle so a new generation is probably due soon. Best Car Web wasted no time at all to start reimagining how the next generation Mazda 2 will look like based on the new generation Mazda 3 hatchback launched last year. For the next generation, the Mazda 2 have been reimagined to be a smaller Mazda 3. Hence why Best Car Web has rendered to show the new Mazda 2 hatchback bearing a sim

The upcoming 2020 Mazda 3 Hatchback Turbo will have seriously impressive numbers that might make you consider twice about getting a VW Golf GTi or even the Hyundai i30 N. According to an official video released by Mazda Mexico, the 2.5-litre turbocharged engine will be powering the Mazda 3 Hatchback Turbo, producing 230 PS and a blazing 420 Nm of torque. Those figures match what we had speculated before. It will also be in an all-wheel-drive configuration and it will only be mated to a 6-speed a
