Irvine-based Mazda North America will be raising the veil on the long-awaited 2011 MAZDA2 at L.A. Auto Show at the Los Angeles Convention Center in December. Designed and engineered by Mazda, the MAZDA2 has received accolades in countries throughout the world and was named 2008 World Car of the Year.

With its North American release, MAZDA2 will bring a yet-to-be-seen element of style and driving dynamics to the North American subcompact segment that no other competitor can offer. The vehicle will be sold in the U.S. and Canada beginning in late 2010.

Takashi Yamanouchi, representative director, president and CEO, Mazda Motor Corp., will address the media at a press conference, scheduled to begin at 11:05 a.m., Wednesday, Dec. 2. In addition to a stock MAZDA2, a selection of unique MAZDA2 vehicles will be on display to showcase the car's creative potential and versatility.
