YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Rear seats fit adults or kids in car seats adequately, especially for an economy car. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Great, height adjustable driver seat, with good lumbar support. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Second row seats have lots of room, can slide fore and aft, and can recline. The passenger seats up in a chair-like posture, with great support for thighs. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tons of rear seat room, and the second row seats can slide back/forth and recline. Third row is reserved for small children, however. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Can easily and comfortably seat six (6!) adults in a small package with storage space remaining. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4

The rear doors are the sliding type, which is the most practical (and brilliant) type of rear doors for children. I also like the fact that the middle seats recline and slide, they have storage under the cushions, and a third row of usable seating! see full Mazda Mazda5 review

4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Flexible layout. Individual captains chairs in the middle row provides ample space. 3rd row is best left for kids under pre teens, but a short trip would be ok for adults. 2nd and 3rd rows seats can be folded down flat individually. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2007 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4
5-speed manual FWD
With the seat all back, there is not much room for anyone over six feet tall. see full Mazda Mazda5 review
2006 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tight fit once the front seats are slid back. Third row is useless if the second row is slid back. see full Mazda Mazda5 review

2008 4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review
