The Mazda 2 Sedan has been sighted in Thailand again. This time we can see a full side profile view of the disguised Honda City fighter thanks to spyshots posted on Thailand's Headlightmag forums. We've put Theophilus Chin's rendering of the Mazda 2 Sedan next to it - what do you think of Mazda's attempt at translating the hatchback's design to a sedan body?

Earlier this week we saw a Mazda dealership post up indicative pricing and specs for the new Mazda 2 hatchback and sedan. The sedan was listed for RM85,xxx while the hatchback was given a RM87,xxx price tag. Two ads for the new Mazda 2 Skyactiv on our sister classifieds website oto.my have appeared, listing the hatchback for RM87,670 and RM88,000 respectively.

Other tentative specs listed include 16 inch alloys with 185/60R16 tyres, a 7" touch screen MZD Connect system, daytime running lights, automatic air conditioning, keyless entry with engine push start, head-up display, stability control, dual airbags, reverse camera, i-stop auto start/stop, and paddle shifters.

The tentative specs list sound the same as what we've seen on the Indonesian market R Spec. Both body styles will get a 114 hp, 148 Nm 1.5 litre Skyactiv engine mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox.

We've of course driven it – if you want to find out what the hatchback is like, read Jonathan Lee's impressions of the Mazda 2 from the media test drive session in Japan back in August.
