Mazda has introduced a new model year version of its Demio supermini (known overseas as the Mazda2) in Japan.
Most notably, the Japanese
automaker has updated the 13C-V Smart Edition with enhanced
aerodynamics through the employment of a rear roof spoiler and
undercover, which result in a 0.4km/L improvement in fuel economy, from
20.2km/L (47.5mpg US) to 20.6km/L (48.5mpg US) under Japan's JC08 mode
test cycle.
While
it may not seem much in absolute numbers, the improved fuel economy
allows the Demio 13C-V Smart Edition II to qualify for a 50 percent
reduction in the vehicle acquisition and weight taxes under Japan's
eco-car tax reduction program.
Other
model year changes across the range include the new Border Black seat
color option for the Sporty Package and Comfort Package and the
introduction of two new exterior colors named Stormy Blue Mica and
Clear Water Blue Metallic.
