Chang'an-Ford will produce Mazda 2 in its Nanjing plant, which is the second assembly plant of Chang'an Ford and now under construction.

Mazda recently officially joint the "Chang'an - Ford" alliance, taking 15 shares from Ford party. Now the equity between Chang'an, Ford and Mazda is 50:35:15, which is approved by the Chinese government.

In return, Chang'an-Ford will take shares in the FAW-Mazda Motor Sales Co., Ltd., which is now the sales company of Mazda in China dealing with the major Mazda brand products.

this info is useless

Why ? More competition is good for the customers and besides it's always nice to hear a new model to be produced in China.

Mazda 2 is already beeing tested on Chinese roads.

That is the best looking Mazda I've seen yet. Yes, the Miata and RX-8 are cool designs, but this is more to my liking. Unfortunately, I reside in the U.S. and Mazda wasn't committing the Mazda2 to NA when I read about this car a month or so ago. Should do decently in China, though.

I don't like the Mazda3 design enough to jump on it, but this Mazda2, in sedan form, is a nice looking car, that should do well on gas, too.

Lookin' sharp to me! I like! Too bad it might not come to America for a long time.

I think Mazda has designed a subcompact that will really sell pretty well for them. It'll be a long time until it comes to the U.S., but it should sell in the UK, India, Japan, South America and generally everywhere else in Europe. It does have some serious competition...the Fiat 500, Kia Rio, Hyundai Accent and even the Smartfor to mention just a few. But it looks good and sound. Wonder what kind of gas mileage it gets.

Mazda 2 was officially launched in China yesterday, on November 27, according to Gasgoo.com.

The model will be available in three versions: 1.3L MT will be sold at 83,800 yuan ($11,420), while 1.3L AT is priced at 91,800 yuan ($12,510) to 101,300 yuan ($13,870). It will be sold in 50 authorized dealers across the country as of January.

"By introducing the four-door sedan and five-door hatchback to the B-car segment in China, we have completed our product lineup in the B, C and D segments," said Noriaki Yamada, President and COO of Mazda Motor (China) Co., Ltd.

According to Mazda spokesman Ken Haruki, Mazda's sales in China this year is expected to reach about 100,000 cars, and the company aims to sell more than 180,000 cars in 2008 and 300,000 in 2010.

Mazda2 Jingxiang is launched at RMB 86,800-115,800 in Beijing.

April 2, 2008 - Chnagan Mazda launched its high-quality new sedan model -- "Mazda2 Jingxiang," which means "Mazda2 dynamic flying" -- in Beijing today as the car's world premiere. The new Masda2 vehicles are sold at prices between RMB 86.800 ($12,000) and RMB 115,800.

To cater to the different needs of Chinese customers, the carmaker has released six Mazda2 Jingxiang models with 1.3 and 1.5L engines, and the minimum fuel consumption ranges from 4.9L/100km to 5.3L/100km. The lowest and highest prices are set for the 1.3 manual and the 1.5L automatic luxury models respectively. The Mazda Advanced Impact-energy Distribution and Absorption System is also featured in the safety design of the Mazda2 vehicles.

The latest version of Mazda2 has a "dynamic and elegant" form designed to capture new customers in the rapidly growing Chinese B-car segment. The new models will greatly strengthen Mazda's product lineup in China. Mazda says it will maintain its pursuit of harmony between driving pleasure and environmental and safety performance, and always strives to be a brand that provides an exhilarating driving experience.

In order to achieve its mid-term target of production and sales of 300,000 units in China in 2010, Mazda will continue to promote the Zoom-Zoom brand promise. The Masda2 Jingxiang and the all-new Mazda2 five-door hatchback are the first models of Mazda's evolved Zoom-Zoom new generation products. The new Masda2 concept has received excellent reviews since its global rollout schedule was announced last summer.

The Mazda2 Jingxiang, based on the techniques and features of the all-new Mazda2 manufacturing, is made for the Chinese market at the Changan Ford Mazda Automobile Co. plant in Nanjing. The Nanjing plant is able to make 160,000 units a year and "features cutting-edge eco-friendliness, efficiency, and an employee-friendly working environment."

As it appears, Chinese Mazda 2 is not getting facelift in near future. Chang'an will rather introduce sport version of the car:
