Vehicle Highlights

An exterior facelift and interior trim changes highlight 2004 for Mazda's minivan. MPV is among the smallest minivans and comes in one body length. It uses a 200-hp V6 engine and 5-speed automatic transmission. ABS is standard. The LX has 16-inch alloy wheels, the top-shelf ES 17s. Front side airbags and traction control are optional on LX, standard on ES. MPVs seat seven. The 2nd-row bucket seats slide together to create a 2-passenger bench. The 3-passenger 3rd-row bench folds into the floor. Dual sliding side doors are standard and have roll-down power windows. Power-operated side doors are available. Revised front and rear styling changes MPV's look for '04. Interior trim revisions are accompanied by a new steering wheel, bright gauge surrounds, and a spring assist designed to ease the 3rd-row's fold-into-the-floor function.
