2012 Mazda 5 with a new style and new machinery, and give the buyer a small minivan alternative to the traditional model. Completely redesigned for 2012, the Mazda 5 is the latest evolution of the previous model. Highlights include less power, more comfort swoopier style seating.
Mazda 5 Exterior
2012 Mazda 5 is a row of three, six-passenger compact minivan are available in three trim levels: Sport, Touring and Grand Touring. Basic sport comes with a standard 16-inch alloy wheels, full power accessories, keyless entry, cruise control, automatic climate control (with rear vents and fan control), set the drivers seat height, tilt steering wheel-and-telescope and six-speaker sound system with CD player and additional sound jacks.

Mazda 5 Interior
Revised Mazda5 also includes a high-styled interior, although the holding is more than the current Mazda3. This is partly good: only a hood over the instrument, which increased to the point, it seems excessive. Nacelles Instruments protect from glare, so that the hood is not only futile, it also needs to show. Class one interesting detail: the red piping and stitching on black leather chair that Grand Touring. But the eye of the designer is still needed in other parts. Its too flat panel doors and center console is too plain and looks like an aftermarket accessory cheaper than the factory. Some work hard black plastic does not look cheap, but not many things that include 2012 Mazda5s interior. Overall, the interior of the C-Max is more interesting and better appointed, would be too stylish
Mazda 5 performance
Every 2012 Mazda 5 is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that produces 157 horsepower and 163 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual standard on the Sport, while the five-speed automatic is optional on the Sport and standard on others.

With either transmission, fuel economy estimates of 21 mpg city/28 highway.
Mazda 5 Safety
Standard safety features include ABS brakes, side impact air bags for front seats, side curtain airbags for all three rows and an Electronic Stability.
As a material consideration
Mazda 5 2012 certainly is not for everyone. Some people really need the space is roomy, and there is something to be said for V6 power on hilly terrain or with a full load of people on board. Mazda 5 is also not available with certain features that are common to ordinary minivans, such as power-operated sliding doors, glass or factory-installed navigation and entertainment systems. In contrast, all-new 2012 Ford C-Max - also a mini minivan made on the same platform with the Mazda 5, which has all sorts of electronic features. However, the Mazda 5 has everything you need for passengers and cargo as well as enough space for most young families.
