Only full battery-electric (BEV) and plug-in electric (PHEV) models have achieved higher Green NCAP ratings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCongratulations to Mazda on the impressive performance, especially in terms of fuel efficiency,\u201d commented Green NCAP\u2019s Aleksandar Damyanov. Besides its good mileage, the organisation highlighted Mazda2\u2019s low pollutant emissions, noting that the supermini would have scored even better had it been equipped with a gasoline particulate filter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New model even more efficient<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest 55kW\/75PS version of the 2022 Mazda2 currently being rolled out in Europe features a higher compression (15:1 vs. 13:1) Skyactiv-G petrol engine with new technology\u00b2. As a result, Mazda has reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by around 10% compared to the model tested, despite going without the Mazda M Hybrid system, while also adding 6% more torque. And Mazda\u2019s official figures are remarkably accurate in the real world too: The Mazda2\u2019s average consumption during the Green NCAP tests was only marginally higher than the official WLTP combined-cycle figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An initiative from safety assessment organisation Euro NCAP, Green NCAP recognises carmakers whose models go beyond the minimum requirements in terms of efficiency and tailpipe emissions. It does so using a range of road and lab tests reflecting a variety of realistic driving situations including extreme temperatures (from -7\u00b0C to +35\u00b0C), altitudes up to 1,200m, short trips, heavy loads and motorway speeds. The star rating indicates the average results across three areas covering energy efficiency, pollution levels and greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00b9&nbsp;WLTP fuel consumption (combined): 5.9-5.3 l\/100 km; CO2 emissions (combined): 133-120 g\/km.
