Which do you think is a better car? Mazda 2 or Fiesta? and if you had to choose one, Which one would you choose and why? That’s up to you to decide.
Ford already launched the Ford Fiesta last week, and it really looks more better compare to the Mazda 2 which is built using the same platform with the Fiesta.The exterior on both cars look great, but the Fiesta was the best looking car.
Mazda 2 Interior
In our opinion, if you’re in the market for an automatic transmission, the six-speed dual-clutch gearbox in the Fiesta seems to be a much more attractive option than the old-school four-speed automatic in the Mazda 2.Also, the Fiesta can store more cargo and has more comfortable seats.
And for your information, the only member of the KDI team who have driven both models, tells us that the Fiesta is notably more fun to drive than the Mazda 2.

Below are some opinion from some readers:-
Fauziah Amin, Segamat, Johor.
“The Fiesta comes with it along with an interior that looks like it would be a nice place to spend time.”
Aiman Afifi, Kajang, Selangor.
“I don’t hate the Mazda2, I just cannot get over the looks. Mazdas new design theme is stomach turning to me.”
“So, I’d go with the Fiesta, I like the fact it has a 6 speed, looks is nice and high quality.”
Chang KH, Bangi, Selangor.
“I’d go with the Mazda. Mainly because I’d really only get the manual. If I was looking at the auto’s, it’d be the Fiesta for sure. Just say no to 4 speed autos!”
