View dealThe Mazda 2 Hybrid is a five-door supermini built around one idea: low fuel bills with no plug, no cable and no charging routine. It's the small, efficient end of Mazda's line-up, sitting well below the CX SUVs in size and running costs.
It suits town and commuter driving above all - short journeys, stop-start traffic, tight parking spaces. At 3.94 metres long with five seats and a 286-litre boot, it's a genuinely compact car that still works as a family second car.
The choice is simple. One hatchback body, one self-charging hybrid automatic with 114bhp, and four trims: Centre Line, Exclusive Line, Homura and Homura Plus.

Manufacturer data for the versions we currently offer. Last updated 19 September 2026.
The current 2 Hybrid is the fourth-generation car, on sale in this form since 2024. It's a small petrol-electric hatchback designed for efficiency first, with official WLTP economy of 67.3 to 76.3mpg depending on the version.
Reviewers consistently praise the same things: real-world economy that lives up to the claims, light steering and easy manners around town, and a cabin that feels solidly assembled. The common criticisms are engine noise under hard acceleration and modest rear-seat space.
Practical details back up the everyday case. Five seats, a 286-litre boot that grows to 935 litres with the rear bench folded, insurance groups 14 to 15, and Mazda's 6-year or 100,000-mile warranty. Servicing falls due every 12 months or 10,000 miles.
Because the running costs are low and the specification is generous from the first trim. Every 2 Hybrid gets adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, a rear-view camera and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so no version feels stripped out.
Safety is a strong card. The 2 Hybrid holds a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, scoring 86% for adult occupant protection, 81% for child occupant protection, 78% for vulnerable road users and 85% for safety assist.
Leasing also matches how this car is usually used. Fixed monthly rentals, a manufacturer warranty covering the whole term on normal contract lengths, and none of the resale worry at the end - which matters more in the supermini class than people expect. CO2 sits between 85 and 96g/km depending on version, which is useful if the car is going through a business.
There's only one, which makes this the easiest decision on the page. Every 2 Hybrid uses the same self-charging petrol-electric system with an automatic gearbox and front-wheel drive, so your real choice is trim.
A 1.5-litre petrol engine works with a small 0.7kWh battery to produce 114bhp, with 120Nm of torque, 0-62mph in 9.7 seconds and a 109mph top speed. It never needs plugging in - the battery recharges as you drive and brake, so there's no charging routine to think about. The automatic gearbox suits urban driving well.

Four trims, all with the same engine, so you're choosing wheels, cabin kit and parking aids rather than performance.
The entry trim, and far from basic. It brings 15-inch alloy wheels, cloth upholstery, climate control, a reversing camera, a six-speaker audio system with a 9-inch centre display, wireless Apple CarPlay with wired Android Auto, and an artificial leather wrapped gearshift.
The Centre Line is currently available from £255.12 a month.
Exclusive Line moves to 16-inch alloy wheels and adds the parking and convenience kit most drivers miss first: front and rear parking sensors, smart keyless entry and start, plus blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. Upholstery stays cloth.
The Exclusive Line is currently available from £268.70 a month. Against the Centre Line, that is currently £13.58/mo more expensive.
Homura is the sportier-looking one, on 17-inch alloys with privacy glass in the rear side and rear windows. Inside you get cloth and synthetic leather upholstery, a digital instrument cluster, dual-zone climate control, ambient lighting and Qi wireless charging. LED headlights with manual levelling and LED daytime running lights are included.
The Homura is currently available from £283.14 a month. Against the Exclusive Line, that is currently £14.44/mo more expensive.
Homura Plus keeps the 17-inch alloys and artificial leather trim, then adds built-in satellite navigation with voice control, a windscreen-projected head-up display and a fixed panoramic glass roof. Worth knowing: the roof lets in a lot of light but reviewers note it trims rear headroom slightly.
The Homura Plus is currently available from £303.80 a month. Against the Homura, that is currently £20.66/mo more expensive.
