2013 Mazda Mazda2 Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

Performance wise, the Mazda 2 is a very good vehicle. Mine has been very reliable but with anything, the better you take care of it, the longer it lasts. The car being small with big windows made driving and parking much easier. The great thing about the back hatchback is, for me, loading totes for my job was easy with the back seats laying down with the back trunk opening wide. My main problem(is) this car has had for me is how small the space is. Very little room upfront and in back. No console or elbow rest. Very loud road noise when driving.

The best part is that everything about it is cheap. The price, the service, the parts. The worst part is that small things fall off here and there and the car is tiny itself. Only comfortable for 2 people. Also, because it's a 2013, the music technology is pretty obsolete. No Bluetooth. No fancy digital interface. Not many bells and whistles at all.

It is a very reliable car. The gas tank is to be expected for the size of the car, but it has fairly good gas mileage. The handling is pretty smooth, even at higher speeds on highways, and feels responsive when it needs to be. The car itself has proven to be very reliable and all of the parts have held up very well.

Bad on gas, loud engine, shakes on highway at speeds over 60. Too small so not enough leg room for passengers.

The interior is very nice. There isn't much room in the cabin, but the hatchback has a good amount of storage. Definitely needed to be a bit bigger.

I bought it used. The rear passenger side door does not open. The engine rumbles when I am idle but then I have only got one oil change in the past year so it is probably my fault. When I drop anything it always ends up in the most inconvenient place either behind me in the backseat or directly under my seat. It is just not a cool looking car. It is short and frumpy but it was all I could afford.

I have a love hate relationship with my car. I love that it is smaller and that it can fit into almost any spot. I also like the interior. It looks pretty clean and uniform most of the time. I would say some of the things I don't like are that you can feel the mechanisms of the car. This was a review that I saw quite a lot before I bought the car but you can feel everything while you are driving. You can feel the bumps on the road. You can feel the breaking of the car. I guess this may be a personal thing but it can get very uncomfortable driving with these issues.

I bought my car primarily because it was inexpensive, economical (good gas mileage) and a mazda, a brand i trust. I did not have high expectations of it being a high performance car. It has been very reliable so far. A very practical car, nothing exciting
