Mazda has confirmed prices and specifications for the full 2023 Mazda2 hatch and sedan range, which is now available at dealerships from $22,410 before on-road costs.
Mazda first took the wraps off its mid-cycle refresh for the third-generation (DJ) Mazda 2 earlier this year highlighting the equipment and styling upgrades, though has been forced to rise prices by $120 in light of rising production and logistics costs.
The major highlights included some mild styling tweaks to the front grille, a revised front bumper, asymmetrical highlight for the front and rear bumper and a shark fin antenna.
There’s also two new paint colours, Aero Grey and Airstream Blue, a set of new 16-inch alloys for the range-topping Mazda2 GT, and a new carbon-fibre inspired roof design for the Pure SP.
Inside the cabin, there’s a new set of seats, a decorative dash panel, a wireless Apple CarPlay upgrade with wired Android Auto and a six-speaker sound system.

The entry-level Mazda2 Pure comes riding on 15-inch alloys and picks up LED headlights, cloth upholstery with a leather gear lever and steering wheel, keyless start, cruise control and a 7.0-inch infotainment display.
Upgrade to the Mazda 2 Evolve and you’ll pick up a set of black 16-inch alloys chrome exhaust tips, black mirrors, the shark-fin antenna and the carbon-inspired roof finish.
