2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons A member in Pennsylvania, United States |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons A member in Quebec, Canada Looks good, not like a typical minivan |
|
2009 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member3280 Onnly drove with auto box, very feeble. Manual tranny is likely better but not available when tested |
|
2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member3745 I think the car looks sporty for what it is. It also looks and drives smaller than it is, and most people are surprised to learn about the third row of seats |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member3706 Sharp, sporty, compact |

|
2009 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member3571 The six-chair setup of the 5 means that luggage space is limited, and some may find the "three rows of two" arrangement adds difficulty to monitoring children in the far rear seats. In order to carry significant cargo the seats need to be removed. |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member182 Unprecedented car-like handling (steering feel, response, body roll, grip) for a tall wagon-esque people mover |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member406 Neat package - smooth lines, accessibility of sliding doors without the full size profile of a minivan |
|
2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member3069 Plenty of room for hauling. No rear wheel drive train tunnel. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member2871 It looks European in design, it looks sporty for what it is. |
|

|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member405 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! |

|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member931 With all rear seats folded flat, the 5 can fit two adult bikes + one kid bike, or a surprising amount of furniture. |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member2178 Very practical and roomy for the size of car. |
|
2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1899 3rd row in a "car" is nice - we always have the occasional 3rd or 4th child and like that they are somewhat temporarily available. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1689 It uses twice as much fuel as a Prius. |
|
2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member2073 3 rows of 2 = seating for 6 - minivan configuration was #1 reason. |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1830 |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member2104 I think this is a very attractive car in GT trim |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1166 Tracks well in twists and turns. Feels stable and tight in turns. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1686 Seating six adults in a car this size is impressive. |
|
2007 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons A member in Ohio, United States The vehicle gets close to 30 mpg on the highway, even with a Yakima aftermarket bike/boat rack on top. For a true 6 passenger vehicle, thats phenomenal. |
|
2008 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member1768 One of the smallest vehicles with seating for 6. Going to a full size minivan removes the option for a manual transmission, severely reduces visibility and adds too much weight. SUVs are just way too big |
|
2006 Mazda Mazda5 Pros and Cons Member139 Better than any other 6 seat vehicle or minivan (at least on paper), and the only one available with a manual transmission. |
