The 1991 Mazda MPV, the first generation of the iconic minivan, marked a pivotal point in Mazda's history and the evolution of family vehicles. It was the first minivan to be designed and built by a Japanese manufacturer, breaking the American dominance in the segment. The MPV offered a unique blend of Japanese reliability and a more car-like driving experience compared to its American rivals. It was offered in three trim levels: LX, DX, and the top-tier LXi. The MPV was powered by a 2.6-liter V6 engine, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, producing 140 horsepower. This powertrain provided a balance of fuel efficiency and adequate acceleration, making it suitable for both city driving and highway cruising. While not the most powerful engine in its class, it was known for its smooth operation and reliability. The MPV was also renowned for its spacious interior, seating up to seven passengers comfortably. The interior featured a combination of cloth and vinyl upholstery, with a simple and functional dashboard layout. The MPV offered generous cargo space, even with all seats in use, making it particularly practical for families and active individuals. Additionally, it boasted features like sliding doors, making it convenient for accessing the cabin, especially in tight parking spaces.

Despite being a pioneer in the minivan segment, the 1991 Mazda MPV faced stiff competition from established American players like the Chrysler Voyager and the Dodge Caravan. While offering a compelling package, it lagged behind in terms of fuel economy and interior refinement. However, the MPV earned recognition for its reliability, affordability, and engaging driving experience. The 1991 Mazda MPV was a significant step forward for both Mazda and the minivan segment, setting the stage for the continued evolution of this popular vehicle type. Its influence is still felt today, as Mazda continues to produce a range of popular and innovative minivans, reflecting the legacy of the original MPV and its contribution to the automotive world. The 1991 Mazda MPV represents a unique chapter in automotive history, offering a glimpse into the past and the potential of Japanese ingenuity in designing practical and family-friendly vehicles.
