2010 Mazda 5: Overview

Vehicle Highlights

The 2010 Mazda 5 gains some new safety features. Mazda 5 shares elements of its basic design with the Mazda 3 compact car, but has a longer, taller body with seating for six, minivan-style sliding rear-side doors, and a one-piece liftgate. Sport, Touring, and Grand Touring versions are available. All have a 153-hp 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard on Sport. A 5-speed automatic is optional on Sport and standard on Touring and Grand Touring. Seating comes in three rows of two. The 2nd- and 3rd-rows fold, and the 2nd-row seats should recline and slide fore and aft to adjust for cargo or passenger space. Available safety features include ABS, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags. New for 2010 are traction control and an antiskid system. A sunroof is standard on Touring and Grand Touring. Grand Touring has leather upholstery, heated front seats, and xenon headlamps. A navigation system is optional for Grand Touring.
