Mazda Launches Subtly Refined Verisa Subcompact Hatch in Japan


Despite the introduction of a newer generation of the Demio, which is known as the Mazda2 in overseas markets, Mazda continues to offer a crossover-ish version of the previous model called the Verisa in Japan. The tall subcompact hatch, which is pretty much the Japanese equivalent of Europe's Ford Fiesta (previous generation) -based Fusion, enters the 2011MY with some modest updates.

These include the introduction of new colors for both the fabric and leather seats, a revised instrument panel that includes a fuel consumption gauge and an "eco-lamp" to support economical driving, restyled hub caps and improved standard equipment on some model grades. The refined Verisa goes on sale in Japan from today.

  • The Verisa C features new Coral Brown fabric seats, which are brown in the middle and beige on the sides
  • The Verisa L has new Cool Black leather seats with a black and sand-colored two-tone design.
  • To match the new seats, the Verisa L has a black and sand-colored leather-wrapped steering wheel.
  • Both grades have a newly designed instrument panel with blackout meters.
  • Newly designed hub caps for both the 14-inch and 15-inch wheels.

Equipment (functionality)

  • Automatic headlights and front rain sensing wipers (which automatically switch on according to ambient conditions), and water-repellant coating (on the front door windows and door mirrors) are standard equipment on the Verisa L grade.
  • A fuel consumption gauge (showing average fuel consumption) and an eco-lamp have been added to the instrument panel on all model grades.
