Currently there are no plans of releasing the Mazda2 in the United States, however with more manufacturers releasing their small cars in the US, and with tightening fuel economy rules, and rising gas prices, one can only hope. We'd love to see this car on our shores!

ALL-NEW MAZDA2 TO DEBUT AT 2007 GENEVA INTERNATIONAL MOTOR SHOW
HIROSHIMA, Japan – Mazda Motor Corporation will showcase the world premiere of the all-new Mazda2 (known as the Mazda Demio in Japan) at the 77th annual Geneva International Motor Show to be held from Tuesday, March 6 through Sunday, March 18, 2007. Also on display at the Mazda stand will be the Mazda Hakaze design concept car and a Mazda3 (Mazda Axela in Japan) armed with Mazda's high-powered diesel engine.
Officially titled the Salon International de l'Auto de Genève, the Geneva Motor show press days are March 6 and 7, and the public days are March 8-18. Mazda will hold its press conference on Tuesday, March 6, at 2:15 p.m. (local time).
The all-new Mazda2 is more than just a model freshening of the current Mazda2. In 2002, the Mazda6 heralded the arrival of Mazda's new generation of Zoom-Zoom vehicles, and now the Mazda2 becomes the first of these to evolve to the next level. As such, the new Mazda2 represents the progression of Mazda's Zoom-Zoom brand promise. Plans to import Mazda2 to North America continue to be considered. However, at this time, there is no current intention to do so.
