The Mazda5, produced from 2005 to 2010, is a compact MPV (multi-purpose vehicle) that carved a niche for itself in the market by offering a unique combination of versatility, practicality, and sporty handling. Built on the Mazda3 platform, the Mazda5 offered a spacious interior with seating for six passengers, thanks to its innovative "3+3" seating configuration where the second row could be split into two individual seats. This allowed for flexible seating arrangements, catering to families, groups of friends, or even cargo hauling needs. Under the hood, the Mazda5 was powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, mated to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. While not a powerhouse, the engine provided adequate power for everyday driving, while the Mazda5's precise steering and well-tuned suspension provided a fun and engaging driving experience, especially compared to other MPVs of the time.
The Mazda5 was praised for its practicality, offering numerous storage compartments and a versatile cargo area that could be expanded by folding the second and third-row seats. The interior was also designed with comfort and functionality in mind, offering generous headroom and legroom for all passengers. While the Mazda5's styling may not have been as eye-catching as some of its competitors, it was certainly distinctive and offered a more refined look compared to other boxier MPVs. Overall, the Mazda5 was a compelling option for families or individuals looking for a practical and fun-to-drive compact MPV that could handle a variety of situations. However, it was discontinued in 2010, leaving a void in the market for a compact MPV with such a focused combination of versatility, performance, and style.
