Fuel economy is from Japan’s official tests and is usually better than you’ll see on UK roads. MLIT doesn’t list power or torque.

ABF-SKP2V

Listed 2011–2016. The ABF prefix (our explanation, not MLIT’s) means petrol goods vehicle or bus certified to Japan’s 2005 emissions rules. Check ABF-SKP2V against ULEZ and clean air zones.

Each row is one version as MLIT lists it. A version can appear twice when MLIT gave figures on two tests that year. Low-emission stars and trim names aren’t shown. MLIT gives fuel economy in km/L; the mpg figures are our conversion to UK gallons. Japanese tests are gentler than real UK driving, so expect less.

SKP2V build year by chassis number

Japan’s carmakers list the chassis numbers each code was built with every year from 2015. Find the serial below, or use the build year finder.

From the JAMA chassis number lists: 車台番号一覧表. We keep only the chassis code, serial ranges and year. JAMA calls them reference information, not a certificate.

Check an SKP2V before you buy

Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start SKP2V-, and the engine and gearbox should match one of the versions above. Our free check reads the UK MOT history and compares it with the chassis code.

Questions

What engine does the SKP2V have?

MLIT lists the Mazda Bongo SKP2V with L8 1,798 cc petrol.

What fuel economy does the SKP2V get?

Officially between 10.2 and 11 km/L (about 29–31 mpg), depending on the version, on Japan’s own tests. Real-world figures are usually lower, especially against the older 10-15 mode test.

How heavy is the SKP2V?

Between 1,290 and 1,400 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.

Is ABF-SKP2V the same as SKP2V?

Yes. ABF-SKP2V is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and SKP2V is the model code. The chassis number starts with SKP2V-.

About these figures

The model types, engine codes, capacities, gearboxes, drive, weights, seats and km/L figures are copied from MLIT’s yearly lists of cars on sale in Japan each March, so “listed” years are list years, not exact production dates. The English model names, mpg conversions, emissions code explanations and chassis number matching are ours. Lists before 2013 were printed as PDFs that we read by machine; where an older list gives an engine code that doesn’t match its capacity, we’ve used the figure the same model type has in other years. Check anything that matters against the car’s own papers. Spotted a mistake? Email [email protected]. All Mazda model codes.
