| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Comparable to most compact cars. |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Best among all minivans |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
USED LESS GAS THAN MY OLD 97 VOYAGER |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Impressive considering all this vehicle can do (carry six, or a bunch of stuff). Driven with some restraint (60-65), I can average 30+ mpg on my weekly commute. With a microvan that can seat six. |

| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Better than our previous mini-van, mostly because of size. We drive it harder, so some of that advantage is lost :) |
| 2009 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
reasonable gas mileage for a car that can hold 6. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Best 3rd row MPG - not ready financially or stylistically to go for the minivan. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Expected 5 more miles to the gallon than my old minivan - getting 8 to 11 miles more to a gallon than minivan! |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
With a flexible 4 cylinder engine, and an available manual transmission, I average almost 30mpg with seating for 6 |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Avg under 10L/100km one of buying criteria. good on hwy and not as bad as full sized van in city. Good for long summer road trips. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I average 27 mpg city driving in a mini(micro)van. No one esle comes close. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The vehicle gets close to 30 mpg on the highway, even with a Yakima aftermarket bike/boat rack on top. For a true 6 passenger vehicle, thats phenomenal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
For a van, it was decent |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
average combined mileage is about 30mpg/9 litres per 100 km |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Good fuel economy |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
For its size, decent fuel economy thanks to the 4-cylinder engine, especially when combined with the manual transmission. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Better than any other 6 seat vehicle or minivan (at least on paper), and the only one available with a manual transmission. |
| Mazda Mazda5 Fuel Economy: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan 153-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It uses twice as much fuel as a Prius. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
vehicle is heavy for its size so the fuel economy is not that great. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan 157-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
My 4 speed automatic yields about 10.5 L/100 km on 50/50 highway and city driving with a conscious effort to stick to the speed limit and driving as if I had an egg under my right foot. Eh, I thought it would AT LEAST be under 10. |
