The {{Nihongo|Mazda 2|マツダ・ツー|Matsuda Tsū|lead=yes}} is a subcompact/supermini (B-segment) car manufactured and marketed by Mazda since 2002, currently in its third generation. An entry-level model of the brand in markets outside Japan, the Mazda2 is positioned below the Mazda3. The Mazda2 has also been marketed as the Mazda Demio (a name it kept in the Japanese market until 2019), while its direct predecessor was exported as the Mazda 121.
The second-generation Mazda2 earned the 2008 World Car of the Year title,{{cite web |url=http://www.wcoty.com/2008/awards.asp |title=World Car of the Year Awards |publisher=World Car Awards |year=2008 |access-date=2016-03-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180317035552/http://www.wcoty.com/2008/awards.asp |archive-date=17 March 2018 }} while the third-generation model was awarded the 2014–2015 Japanese Car of the Year.{{cite web |url=http://www.autoindustriya.com/auto-industry-news/all-new-mazda2-wins-car-of-the-year-award-in-japan.html |title=All-new Mazda2/Demio wins the Japanese Car of The Year award |first=Marcus |last=De Guzman |publisher=Autoindustriya.com |date=2014-10-13 |access-date=2014-10-13}}
The third-generation model was sold in North America as the Scion iA and Toyota Yaris, Yaris iA and Yaris R.
A separate, petrol-hybrid version based on the Toyota Yaris Hybrid has been sold in Europe under the same Mazda2 nameplate since 2022 alongside the petrol-powered third-generation Mazda2.{{cite magazine |url=https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-2022-mazda-2-hybrid-toyota-yaris-based-supermini |title=New 2022 Mazda 2 Hybrid is Toyota Yaris-based supermini |first=Felix |last=Page |magazine=Autocar |date=2021-12-06 |access-date=2021-12-06}}{{cite web |url=https://www.motor1.com/news/552623/2022-mazda2-specs-photos/ |title=2022 Mazda2 Debuts In Europe As Rebadged Toyota Yaris Hybrid |first=Adrian |last=Padeanu |website=motor1.com |publisher=Motorsport Network |date=2021-12-06 |access-date=2021-12-06}}

When it came to redesigning the Revue, Mazda came up with a tall hatchback, minivan-esque package. Introduced in a time full of negative press coverage, the Demio became a surprise hit for Mazda in Japan, and also foreshadowed the current crop of B-segment minivans such as the Opel Meriva, Fiat Idea and the Renault Modus. Sold as the 121 in most export markets, the DW's replacement was called the Mazda2 in most of the world. The Demio nameplate, however, continued to be used in Japan until 2019.
The original Demio was introduced in July 1996 and replaced in 2002.

The second-generation Demio was redesigned in August 2002. The Demio name continued in Japan, while for export markets Mazda dropped the 121 nameplate and other names in favor of "Mazda2". Since its debut, the 2 has been well received by the market, pushing its Japanese domestic sale to as far as seventh place.{{Citation needed|date=June 2022}}
Mazda developed the model from the B-segment Ford B3 platform, which is shared with the fifth-generation Ford Fiesta along with components such as suspension design. The development of the model was led by chief engineer Kiyoshi Fujiwara, which also oversaw the development of the B3 platform at Ford's European R&D.{{cite web | url = http://www.sae.org/automag/globalvehicles/12-2002/ | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20050828134701/https://www.sae.org/automag/globalvehicles/12-2002/ | archive-date = 2005-08-28 | title = Mazda2/Demio based on Fiesta | publisher = SAE International | date = 2002-12-01 | first = Jack | last = Yamaguchi }} Production of the car for European market was consigned to the Almussafes Ford plant in Valencia, Spain since 20 January 2003.{{Cite news|url=http://elpais.com/diario/2003/01/21/cvalenciana/1043180307_850215.html|title=Mazda empieza a fabricar desde Ford Almussafes con la idea de ampliar su apuesta por la planta valenciana|date=2003-01-21|work=EL PAÍS|access-date=2017-05-21|language=es}}
All models are equipped with ABS and EBD, and stability control was optional. An innovative feature offered in Japan is e-4WD, a hybrid car-type system which uses an electric motor to power the rear wheels of this front wheel drive vehicle when needed. In the Demio, this system is used only as a traction aid, not for increased fuel economy as in most other vehicles.{{Cite web |title=MAZDA:Backnumber {{!}} News Releases |url=https://newsroom.mazda.com/en/publicity/release/2003/200311/1127e.html |access-date=2024-07-25 |website=newsroom.mazda.com}}
There is also a big difference in floor pan and pedal box. The European-exclusive version of Mazda2 (DY) uses a pedal box directly sourced from Ford Fiesta, with their own 4x108 bolt pattern instead of 4x100.{{Citation needed|date=June 2022}}
Three trim levels were available in Japan are Cozy, Sport and Casual.
In Europe, trim levels were S, TS and TS2. The TS and TS2 were renamed Antares and Capella in 2004. The Japanese 1.3 and 1.5 gasoline engines are not available, but Ford's 1.25-liter 16-valve Sigma engine is used, and Mazda's 1.4 and 1.6 gasoline, plus Fords 1.4 TDCi diesel are offered but called 1.4 CDTi by Mazda.{{Citation needed|date=June 2022}}
In New Zealand, the Mazda2 was sold with a 1.5 ZY-VE straight-four engine.{{Citation needed|date=June 2022}}
In 2004, Mazda introduced the Verisa in Japan. The Verisa is based on the Demio/Mazda2 but was targeted further upmarket.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}

The range extender test car was a version of the Mazda2 prototype electric car with a 0.33-liter rotary engine, lithium-ion batteries, 75 kW electric motor driving front wheels and 10-liter fuel tank. This would double the range of the Demio EV, meeting Japanese requirements that the fuel tank and engine not provide more range than the electric motor. The {{convert|1280|kg|lb|abbr=on}} car would have a {{convert|200|kg|lb|abbr=on}}, 20 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, powering a {{convert|75|kW|PS hp|0|abbr=on}} / {{convert|150|Nm|kgm lbft|abbr=on}} electric motor.

New colours, including the Aero Grey Metallic and Airstream Blue Metallic are both available. The Evolve and GT trims add a black interior and red stitching, which was initially only available on the Pure SP trim level.
Additionally, new seat designs and a new key fob are introduced. Auto-folding side mirrors, dusk sensing for the LED headlights, and rain-sensing windscreen wipers are standard. Mazda claims the new 2 has improved {{CO2}} emissions.
In Australia, the updated 2 went on sale in June 2023. Deliveries started in July.
In February 2025, the petrol-powered Mazda2 was discontinued in the UK, with the Toyota Yaris-derived Mazda2 Hybrid as its successor.{{Cite news |last=Martin |first=Charles |title=Mazda 2 supermini axed after a decade on sale |url=https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/mazda-2-supermini-axed-after-decade-sale|website=Autocar |location=UK |date=17 February 2025 |access-date=2025-03-21 }}

The Mazda2 uses Mazda's Skyactiv-Drive six-speed automatic and Skyactiv-MT five- and six-speed manual gearboxes{{Cite web|url=https://www.carbuyer.co.uk/news/141132/mazda2-2014-release-date-price-specs|title=Mazda2 2014 release date, price & specs|website=Carbuyer}} as well as stop-start technology ("i-STOP" turns the engine off when the car is stationary) and a brake energy regeneration system ("i-ELOOP" uses braking to charge a capacitor for all car electronics, in place of an alternator charging a battery).
The Mazda2 was initially offered with a 1.5-liter gasoline engine and a 1.5-liter diesel engine—the Skyactiv-D, 1.5-liter diesel engine debuted at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. The gasoline engine will be available with 74 bhp, 89 bhp or 113 bhp, while the diesel will produce 104 bhp. The diesel engine was discontinued in Europe in 2019, and an additional 1.5-liter mild hybrid gasoline engine was offered since 2020. The latter is only available with 6-speed manual transmission.
In February 2024, Mazda introduced the Mazda2 Grand Touring LX Carbon Edition hatchback in Colombia, which is powered by a 2.0-litre petrol engine producing {{convert|140|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|186|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} of torque.{{Cite web |last=Fernández |first=Nicolás |date=2024-02-12 |title=Así es el nuevo Mazda 2 motor 2.0 L que ya se vende en Colombia |trans-title=This is the new Mazda 2 2.0 L engine that is already sold in Colombia |url=https://www.elespectador.com/autos/asi-es-el-nuevo-mazda-2-motor-20-l-que-ya-se-vende-en-colombia/ |access-date=2024-07-01 |website=ELESPECTADOR.COM |language=spanish}}

While the Mazda2 is produced in North America at Mazda's plant in Mexico, the company did not sell the vehicle in Canada or the United States (except in Puerto Rico). Instead, the Mazda2 was sold by Toyota Motor North America in those markets between 2015 and 2020. The rebadged Mazdas received different model codes starting with DA, DB, or DD.
In Canada, the vehicle was sold as the Yaris Sedan across all model years.{{cite web|last=Litwinenko|first=Jerrold|date=2015-04-01|title=All-new 2016 Toyota Yaris sedan coming to Canada this fall|url=https://www.ctvnews.ca/autos/all-new-2016-toyota-yaris-sedan-coming-to-canada-this-fall-1.2306941|access-date=2018-03-29|publisher=CTV News}} In Mexico, the vehicle was sold as the Yaris R, alongside the larger and lower-priced Yaris Sedán (a variant of the Vios and later the Yaris Ativ). The Yaris R was sold in three versions.{{cite web|date=2015-07-27|title=Toyota anuncia producción del subcompacto Yaris R en México|url=http://www.toyota-pressroom.com/noticia/356/toyota-anuncia-produccion-nbspdel-subcompacto-yaris-r-en-mexico|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150806192732/http://www.toyota-pressroom.com/noticia/356/toyota-anuncia-produccion-nbspdel-subcompacto-yaris-r-en-mexico|archive-date=2015-08-06|publisher=Toyota Mexico}}
In the United States, the sedan was sold under several names. In the initial 2016 model year, it was marketed under Toyota's youth-oriented Scion brand as the Scion iA, where it was the only 4-door sedan and only model not to be built in Japan to be marketed under the brand. After discontinuing the Scion brand, the car was rebranded as the Toyota Yaris iA for the 2017 and 2018 model years.{{cite web|last=Capparella|first=Joseph|date=2016-03-17|title=Scion, Living On: Scion iM, iA To Be Renamed Toyota Corolla iM, Yaris iA|url=http://blog.caranddriver.com/scions-living-on-scion-im-ia-to-be-renamed-toyota-corolla-im-yaris-ia/|access-date=2016-03-17|work=Car and Driver|archive-date=20 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160320143300/https://blog.caranddriver.com/scions-living-on-scion-im-ia-to-be-renamed-toyota-corolla-im-yaris-ia/|url-status=dead}} For the 2019 and 2020 model years, the sedan was rebranded again as the Toyota Yaris Sedan.{{cite web|last=Fink|first=Greg|date=2018-03-26|title=2019 Toyota Yaris Sedan Revealed: iA No More|url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/2019-toyota-yaris-sedan-official-photos-and-info-news|access-date=2018-03-27|work=Car & Driver}}
When first introduced, like all Scion vehicles, the iA only had one trim level (monospec) and only offered buyers a choice of exterior color and a choice between 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmissions.{{cite web |first=Joseph |last=Capparella |date=December 2016 |url=https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2017-toyota-yaris-ia-manual-tested-review/ |title=2017 Toyota Yaris iA Manual |work=Car and Driver |access-date=2018-03-27}} For 2019, with the Yaris Sedan rebranding, the vehicle received a minor facelift, and L, LE and XLE trim levels were introduced with a variety of interior and exterior options.{{cite press release |url=https://pressroom.toyota.com/releases/2019+yaris+sedan+offers+ideal+blend+value+fun.htm |title=2019 Yaris Sedan Offers Ideal Blend of Value and Fun |publisher=Toyota |location=US |date=2018-03-26 |access-date=2018-09-11 |archive-date=19 June 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190619175445/https://pressroom.toyota.com/releases/2019+yaris+sedan+offers+ideal+blend+value+fun.htm |url-status=dead }}
The hatchback variant of the Mazda2 was not initially sold by Toyota, which instead offered a Yaris Liftback based on the Toyota Vitz (XP130). After the Vitz was discontinued, a model called the Yaris Hatchback, based on the Mazda2, went on sale in October 2019 for the 2020 model year.{{cite magazine |first=Joey |last=Capparella |date=2019-01-28 |url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a26062013/toyota-yaris-hatchback-mazda-2-confirmed-2020/ |title=Toyota Is Replacing the Old Yaris with a Rebadged Mazda 2 Hatchback |magazine=Car and Driver |access-date=2019-02-03}}{{cite web |date=2019-04-05 |url=https://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/about/news/allnew-2020-toyota-yaris-hatchback-combines-technology-cargo-capacity-and-practicality |title=All-New 2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Combines Technology, Cargo Capacity and Practicality |work=toyota.ca |access-date=2019-04-12}}
