Redesigned in 2002, the Demio introduced a DY platform which Mazda2 used worldwide and Ford versions were discontinued. This new compact car is shared with Ford's Fiesta on the Global Ford B3 platform. It is produced for Europe at a Ford plant in Valencia, Spain and is expected to start sales in North America in 2007 alongside other subcompacts like the Toyota Yaris, Nissan Versa, and Honda Fit. All models come equipped with ABS and EBD and optional stability control, and some models feature e-4WD for traction.
Mazda divided the Demio into three trim levels - Cozy, SPORT, and Casual - each tailored to different demographics. The Cozy trim is highly popular among single women and includes special paint colors and a canvas sunroof as an add-on option. While the SPORT trim is heavily marketed to the young men and the Casual focuses on young families.
The Mazda2 is also available with a variety of Z-family engines including 1.3 L ZJ-VE I4, 1.5 L ZY-VE I4, 1.25 L MZI, 1.4 L MZI, 1.6 L MZI, 1.4 L MZ-CD Diesel, and 1.4 L MZ-CD Diesel. Mazda also released the Verisa in Japan in 2004, which is an upscale version of the Demio.
