2012 Mazda5 Test Drive & Car Review

The 2012 Mazda 5 has a base price of $19,625. The only motor choice available is a 2.5 liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 157 horsepower and 163 lb-ft. of torque. Fuel economy is 21 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway.

What's cool about the Mazda 5 is that it features a sliding door just like a minivan should. This allows for easy access to the third row. The Mazda 5 also features a pair of captains chairs in the second row that are very plush and comfortable. The 2012 Mazda 5 is very fun to drive. The steering is responsive and the engine has enough torque to get you moving. There is no other vehicle like the Mazda 5. If you want a sharp looking and sporty minivan then get this car!

There are other minivans, but THIS one is a Mini Minivan

In the middle row when you said there might be a bigger guy in front of you, i thought you were gonna push the whole seat back so you have leg room. what good does leaning back do?

Had a 2012 blue it was a decent car got 28 mpg consistent. Thought it was ugly as sin though.

Is the Mazda 5 better than the dodge grand caravan ?

[connorcaricchio]

I am going to buy one for my first car and I will tell my friends that it is an compacked SUV with sliding doors

I think Jeff is well over 6ft. Must be at least 6'4" or something, because I have this car (I'm 6ft) and my head just comes over the top of the roof line. There is also stacks of room in the back. It is a spacious car.

@MIA7Xthies it might not help with leg room, but reclining angled my body in a way that made me feel like I had more room, and increased my overall level of comfort. Great question though.

He sings it's praises yet looks like a goddamn giant in there. Who's paying him?

[esinar]

Lol the only reason I came here was because I thought it had suicide doors like the Rolls Royce... Didn't even consider the fact that they could've been sliders HAHA

@3:14 mpg is wrong. The official is 21 city 28 high way. I get 28mpg even with mixed driving during the summar in a 2015 sport trim.

this isnt a mazda its a nissan lafiesta

[RMasters]

He looks cramped in there, in every seat. Thus an interesting vehicle!

[Numberseven]

It's the smallest minivan I've ever seen!
:D

[cbrrebates]

The car is too small. If it's rear ended, people on the 3rd row will be in big trouble.

The guy sounds like he's hired from mazda to make every single pointless lies about the car to make it good

[eugenebarnes]

21/28 mpg is shitty.ok if gas is free, but it's not.
