The Mazda2 range has been updated in Australia with the launch of the new G15 Pure SP variant. The new model is based around the Mazda2 G15 Pure and adds black 16-inch wheels as well as black mirrors, a black front grille, and chrome tailpipes. The interior is also finished in a combination of black cloth upholstery and red trim.
Elsewhere across the Mazda2 range, the supermini has been updated for the 2022 model year with the availability of a new shade dubbed Platinum Quartz Metallic for both the sedan and hatch models. The Polymetal Grey previously offered exclusively on the hatch is also now available for the sedan. The local range now consists of the G15 Pure, G15 Pure SP, G15 Evolve Hatch, G15 GT Hatch, and GT Sedan. A key update made to all of these models is the inclusion of rear seat belt reminders as standard.
All Mazda2 models sold in Australia are powered by a 1.5-liter Skyactiv-G four-cylinder that pumps out 110 hp and 144 Nm of torque. This engine can be paired to either a six-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission.
Standard features on all 2022 Mazda2 models include LED headlights, cruise control, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, 7-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keyless push-button start, blind-spot monitoring, dynamic stability control, G-Vectoring Control Plus, rear parking sensors, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, reversing camera, and Smart City Brake Support-Forward and Reverse with pedestrian detection.
