The current Mazda line-up is the best ever, according to the manufacturer.

Speaking as the launch of the Mazda2 in North America was announced, chief executive officer and president Jim O’Sullivan said the range spanned all significant areas of the market.

He said the upcoming model to be introduced in the States was good value, lots of fun and stylish to boot.

"It will be the definition of Zoom-Zoom," he added, referring to the company’s branding.

The Mazda2 is set to be unviled at the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show, which takes place from December 4th to 13th.

Since its original launch in 2007, it has won 48 awards.

News of the Mazda2 follows success for the Mazda3 earlier this week.

It was named as the best family car of the year at the Scottish Car of the Year Awards.

Factors such as its comfort, style and economy were noted as contributing to the win.
