Insurance rating class (Germany)Dated, data up to and including 2024

Applies to all generations of this model

Always correct for age. A group of younger cars is not automatically more reliable

  • GDV rating class: Mazda2

    According to the GDV rating-class register (rate year 2024), Mazda2 has KH 15-18 (scale 10-25), VK 10-21 (scale 10-34), TK 12-23 (scale 10-33). Note: this range comes from 26 known engine variants in this rate year. GDV only looks at make and model here, not at the generation. With a count this high, several model generations may be pooled together. Note: this is an index figure or rating class, an insurance statistic about the whole model. It is not a chance of defects and not a prediction for this car.
