Mazda1 mule seen testing

Well i guess some of us were wrong about the direction the Kiyora concept was going

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...ra#post2628549

you can see I was thinking more of a 3 coupe size while Paul thought future mazda2.

Its actually smaller than a 2. dont be fooled as the article say by the old mazda2 panels. this is a mule

new article http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/au...1_scooped.html

zoom 44....this car it's the chinese version of 2 made for home market bt FAW in China.

readed on many forum..it's a refuse

EDIT. i have read the Auto Express article....IMHO the wheelbase is similar to my 2...nto shorter.

BTW mazda1 it's expected to be smaller than 2 and w/ only 3 doors

btw....i dont think that FAW-Mazda it's allowed to develop a global model (like Mazda 1) and stuff like a 1.3 DISI w/ I-stop....

those kind of things are made in Japan IMHO...

Interesting...

Rear doors show a 1/4 Glass and frame, the Export (Jap/Australian) 4 Door Mazda 2 has a one piece set up.

Also the rear hatch has an opening handle (Mazda 2 does not) and the rear window looks considerably shorter in height the 2.

Front Fog light inset and across inset "Curve" is also unique.
