2008 Mazda2
The car that will form the basis of the new baby Ford for the US market will make it's first public appearance in Geneva this week, and we've got the official images from Mazda right here. The little machine has a style that fits right in with the current Mazda design language, including the prominent front fender curves and the lower body character line that sweeps up into the rear fenders. Engines for Europe include a trio of new gas engines of 1.3 and 1.5L displacements ranging from 75hp to 103hp. The two should be arriving on our shores sometime in 2008.

I could see me using one of those to help save the planet. The only Mazda design cue I see is the front. The rest of it is up in the air.
The rear end design is based off the CX-7 from what i can tell

I own one too, and I still think its about time for them to kick the next styling into gear.
This september when I give my car back- whats to sway me to buy another one if they look pretty much the same?
