There's a lot to gain by losing a little excess weight. Improved performance and increased fun. However, as any Mazda engineer will tell you, dropping 100kg (220lbs) can only happen gram by gram. Building a lighter vehicle without compromising its structural rigidity or crash performance requires a wealth of knowledge and an obsession for detail. That's why the engineers at Mazda developed the "Gram Strategy", a process that involves meticulously analyzing the every element of the Mazda2 and re-engineering to lighten each part by at least one gram. Plus, Mazda's "Triple H" construction frame used lighter yet stronger high-tensile steel. The result: A leaner and meaner Mazda2.
