Codenamed the MX Micro Sport, the newcomer will be aimed directly at the Renaultsport Clio 182 and forthcoming Vauxhall Corsa GSi. The car is powered by the gutsy 150bhp 2.0-litre engine that made its debut in the Mazda 6, and should be capable of reaching a top speed of around 130mph.
Unveiled at this week"s Detroit Motor Show, the MX Micro Sport is tipped to go on sale in Japan during the summer and the US a few months later. Depending on public reaction, it could then reach Europe and the UK next year.
