I wish it was a bit quieter and a bit less "cozy" in terms of passenger space, but the Mazda 5 offers great cargo versatility and a surprisingly sporty character in a reasonably sized, reasonably economical package.
Don Sikora
The Mazda 5 offers a great blend of sporty personality and clever practicality.
Jennifer Geiger
Though Mazda 5 is nothing to look at style-wise, its blend of comfort, value, and utility make it a must-see if you're shopping for a midsize car and open to thinking outside the sedan.
John Biel
Even in top-line Grand Touring trim--and with the optional navigation system--the Mazda 5 in this test stickered at $25,595 delivered. At that, it seems like a terrific option for thrifty empty-nesters or young families because of its utility. Power is sufficient and fuel economy is commendably high for a people-hauler.
