Who they are

A short write-up on each car, one paragraph apiece. We describe them on their own terms rather than picking a winner.

Profile · 1.5 Skyactiv-G (DJ, derde generatie, tweede facelift)

Mazda Mazda2

Mazda's own B-segment (DJ platform), not to be confused with the Toyota Yaris based Mazda2 Hybrid sold only in selected markets. The 1.5 Skyactiv-G delivers 90 hp with mild-hybrid and returns WLTP 5.0 l/100km; owners report 5.5 to 6.0 l/100km mixed (public forums, not measured by us).

Profile · 1.0 TSI (NJ, vierde generatie)

Skoda Fabia

Fourth-generation Fabia on the MQB-A0 platform, shared with the Volkswagen Polo and Seat Ibiza. Strong point is the boot (380 l), large for the B-segment class. The 1.0 TSI delivers 95 hp and returns WLTP 5.3 l/100km; owners report 5.5 to 6.5 l/100km in practice (public forums, not measured by us).
