I don't see them downsizing the motor and power from the current model when they have competition to compete with.

Losing 220 lbs. overall and shifting weight distribution rearward to 50/50, while keeping the current heavier 2.0L engine up front would be quite difficult.
Not saying it's not possible, but I would definitely tip my hat to Mazda if they could pull that feat off.
