Although not currently available in the United States, the Ford-Fiesta-based Mazda2 (also known as the Demio in some markets) has been a big hit in the B-class segment in Europe and Asia. And since Mazda showed the MX Micro Sport Concept at the 2004 Detroit auto show, there has been some speculation that the third-generation Mazda2 may reach the States when it arrives for the 2008 model year.

The upcoming Mazda2, which is an evolution of both the MX-Micro Sport Concept and the Sassou Concept from the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, should begin arriving in select markets late this summer.

The compact five-passenger, front-wheel drive Mazda2, seen here, was photographed in northern Sweden during cold-weather testing on Friday.
