It looks like a modified Mazda 121/Ford Festiva/Kia Pride.  It guess it's not a creation of Mazda's M2 studio is it?

Aha - you are right about the 121 / Festiva connection. But it's not M2...

Big clue: this was an official factory offering, not by a modifier or tuner

That's the one! Sold only in Japan and an incredibly rare car for a 'Ford' (only a few hundred made apparently)
