Mazda Mazda5
The Mazda5 minivan is now gone from the US market, but it's coming back here for 2016, perhaps for the last time. Based on the previous Mazda3 platform, the Mazda5 shuns any SKYACTIV components and keeps its old 157-horsepower 2.5-litre engine. Both the GS and GT trims offer the choice of a 6-speed manual (the only one you'll find in a minivan) or 5-speed automatic. This vehicle’s best attribute remains its practical 6-seat interior, accessible through wide-sliding doors.
