Question 1

Is the Mazda2 Hybrid a Toyota?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Mazda2 Hybrid is based on the Toyota Yaris and shares its 1.5-litre petrol-electric system, here with 116 PS and an e-CVT automatic. It charges its own battery and never needs plugging in.

Question 2

How much road tax does a new Mazda hybrid pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

A hybrid is taxed on its engine's CO₂ figure, with the petrol factor of 0.6. The Mazda2 Hybrid therefore pays a small CO₂-based amount, while the plug-in CX-60 and CX-80 usually pay only the €30 minimum.

Question 3

Is the plug-in Mazda CX-60 worth it without a charger?

Accepted Answer

Rarely: the CX-60 and CX-80 plug-ins save fuel only when charged regularly, and run on a heavy petrol engine once the battery is empty. For long motorway runs without charging, the 3.3 diesel versions suit better.

Question 4

Should I buy a new or a used Mazda hybrid?

Accepted Answer

A new one brings the full factory warranty, hybrid system included. A young used one costs less, but check how much warranty it keeps and, on a plug-in, that the charging cable comes with it.
