About the Mazda Demio
The Mazda Demio, known as the Mazda2 in some markets, is a compact hatchback that appeals to urban drivers and small families in Kenya. With its nimble handling and compact dimensions, it's ideal for navigating Nairobi's traffic and tight parking spaces. The Demio is popular among first-time car buyers and those upgrading from motorcycles due to its affordability and ease of maintenance. Its presence in the Kenyan market is bolstered by the availability of petrol, diesel, and the rare LPG variant, catering to different fuel preferences.
Pros
- Compact and easy to park
- Fuel-efficient petrol engines
- Good handling
- Affordable maintenance
- Stylish design
Cons
- Limited rear legroom
- Diesel maintenance costs
- CVT reliability concerns
- Road noise at high speeds
- Lower ground clearance
Reliability
The Demio is generally reliable, with the petrol engines being particularly robust if serviced regularly. Diesel models require more attention to the fuel system and turbocharger. High mileage units may start showing wear on suspension components due to Kenya's rough roads.
Maintenance
Routine maintenance is straightforward, with service intervals typically every 5,000 to 10,000 km. Petrol engines are easier and cheaper to maintain compared to diesel. Automatic transmissions, common in the market, need regular fluid changes to prevent issues.
Parts availability
Parts are widely available in Nairobi's Kirinyaga Road and Grogan areas, as well as in major towns like Mombasa and Kisumu. Genuine and aftermarket parts are accessible, though diesel-specific components like injectors can be pricier. Mazda's authorized service centers can source genuine parts, but at a premium.
Fuel economy
The petrol variants, often equipped with the 1.3L or 1.5L engines, are known for their frugality, especially in urban settings, making them economical for daily commutes. The diesel variant offers better highway fuel economy and torque, but requires careful maintenance of the turbo and injectors.
What to check before buying
- CVT fluid degradation
- Suspension wear on rough roads
- Turbo issues on diesel
- Fuel injector clogging (diesel)
- Air conditioning failures
