BEST BUY

"In a Segment of Its Own"

"... as an efficient and fun family hauler, it's in a segment of its own."

— TheCarConnection.com | January 2010

A Real Fuel Saver

"This MAZDA5 is a very logical and practical, especially given our national interest in fuel economy. Here's a vehicle that will seat six people and still let you bring along some belongings, but it won't suck down a barrel of oil every hour at cruising speeds and it's incredibly easy to maneuver through parking lots and city traffic."

— AUTOMOBILE Magazine, 2008 MAZDA5 Touring Review

Price is Hard to Beat

"The Mazda5 and Rondo are in a subclass by themselves, where the Mazda distinguishes itself further with sliding doors and a price that's hard for any small vehicle to beat."

— Cars.com | March 2010

Impressive Price + Cargo Space

"The Mazda5 is pleasant enough to drive and live with, and its starting price and cargo space are impressive."

— Cars.com | March 2010

BETTER THAN COMPETITION

Best Alternative to a Minivan

"We love that Mazda has the cojones to offer a stick in its six-passenger family hauler. If you have to drive a minivan, a Mazda 5 with a manual transmission is your best shot of convincing friends that you haven't totally given up."

— CarandDriver.com | August 2010

MORE PERFORMANCE

"More Agile Than a Typical Minivan"

"It's more agile than a typical minivan and easier to park, which is something to consider for those who don't really need all the space of a bigger van."

— Edmunds.com, 2010 MAZDA5 Review

"Nimble Around-Town Machine"

"... Mazda5 is a nimble around-town machine, easy to park in crowded lots and boasting remarkably good agility, a trait shared by all Mazdas."
