- Hello and welcome to Saabkyle04! UA-cam's largest collection of automotive variety! In today's video, we will take an up close and personal in depth look at the newly redesigned 2012 Mazda5 Grand Touring. Boasting practicality and fun, this vehicle is a nice choice for those looking for a more practical vehicle without sacrificing on the fun of a sports sedan. During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

I'm aware this is an old video, but given my family has just bought one of these I really appreciate your thorough and easy to follow review and demonstration on all the cubbies, nooks and how everything folds and stows away - I feel like I know the car before we've picked it up :)
How is the vehicle so far? I am considering on getting either Mazda5 or the Prius v Five.
@Hyperspace Explorer it's very good. For a ten year old car with 90k on it she drives very well, feels solid and is really versatile with seating configuration. Very badly with it so far. I got the smaller diesel manual and have got 52mpg thus far :)
I wish we received the diesel model in the US. It's a good car but 50mpg would have made it a lot more popular I think :p
I have one! They’re so much fun to drive!!
Coolio! You should do a video of it if you want. This Mazda minivan is very cute
You look young to be driving a minivan
@@colinl5985 I’m an adult lol
@@thehollyannrose I know but you look no older than 23/24. It's what I mean 😄
@@colinl5985 Just cuz she looks young doesn’t really mean she is young
if i ever had to drive a minivan, this would be it!!! a minivan with a stick shift, would be ideal!
I just picked up a 2013 model. I actually like it more than my BMW crossover. Plan on changing out the radio for android touchscreen with google maps and it would be perfect.
Excellent review. Thanks for your hard work. It will make the test drives easier now that I'm familiar with the car.
As the owner of a 2007 model, the Mazda5 is one hell of a fun vehicle to drive. It's really peppy and handles very well seeing it is based on the Mazda3 platform. Plus even while travelling at 70MPH, I was still able to get 28MPG on the highway. The engine is very smooth and refined, mind you I own the 2.3L based version.
It's really good to see a reviewer that knows what he's doing.....
Kyle, you have really stepped up your review. Really great job.
This car would be great for the older folks too.
I tuned in to watch COPS, and the "bad boys" song on TV was playing in sync with the video here. xD Aside from that oddity, the video was very well presented, Kyle. Keep up the great work. B-)
High quality review. Respect
The practicality is endless!
It's a practical and peppy car! My dad had one for a couple of months but he really enjoyed it.
A very well done review answering about all one could hope for!
As usual another exceptional presentation . The Asian car manufactures I noticed are very clever in the installation of creature comforts and compartments and the layouts of these cars . I like how the head rests move down and additional ideas as the small tray moves like your in first class on your flight on an aircraft and about a half dozen other great things that were shown in this clip ...
hi,kyle nice work,your videos make evrey car to look special
very nice,great presentation i like how u sat in the back seats to get a real feel of the car.
Thats one happy Car
I was surprised they offer a manual for this car. Wasn't expecting that for this sort of car. Great video as always
It's wery good when you take in depth tour with test drive.
First crossover SUV's and now this...the crossover minivan. Shouldn't be too long 'till we start seeing crossover pickups as well. Oh that's right, the Subaru Baja!
You forgot the El Camino
You forgot the Ford Ranchero.
@@kylescheffler8483 hahaha that sounds funny
now look, ford ranger hyundai santa cruz
This aged well
Have a 2012.. One of the best vehicle I ever owned. 100k and basically no problems. Fold the seats down and use it like a cargo van. So many trips in this baby. Keep her service up ( by a trusted Mech). I do all my own service. Trans service at about 50k and several drain n refills since. Regular oil changes and let it warm up a bit b4 hard driving. @80k she got new plugs, coolant flush, brake fluid flush, new drive belt. Also, replaced the battery at around the 5 year mark. of course replace your air filter ever 15k or so. Yes the rear shocks make some noise, but it's nothing, they are inexpensive and easy to replace. Don't get the factory ones, get some monotube KYB or even the standard Monroe shocks and it's all good. Got her first brake job(front only) @99k and new tires. Only really concerning issue I had was the brakes, I came in hot at a gas station and hit a hole where they were working on the road and the anti-lock brake system kicked in. Then the brake pedal went almost to the floor right after that. I was a little concerning and I had that issue a couple times. I bled the brakes a time or two, thinking maybe I had gotten air in the system. It always kinda corrected itself. I now know that it is an issue with the brake anti-lock module. I was thinking I needed a new master cylinder, but that wasn't the case. Now that I know what was causing it, I haven't had anymore issues. I just try to avoid any sudden stops that might cause the anti-lock system to be activated in an extreme manner. I keep her squeaky clean and don't abuse her and she is pretty much as good as new. Will most likely keep it for a long time, b/c it will make a great second vehicle also. Should be good for 2-300k miles. Most issues people have are due to negligence, lack of care, ignorance and taking it to bad n rough mechanics.
faulty brakes numb nut
Do you get a rattle during cold start? My Cx-7 started last winter and I believe they have the same engine. I’m considering getting this as a replacement
@@bhadz100 I have a used 2007 and when I start it I get that little engine rattle even in warm weather. But I think you'll like this more than your CX-7, as the 5 has sliding doors, room for 5 more with you and don't believe what you hear about the 3 row. There's enough room when the second row seats are moved just a notch or 2. Another option for the seating is rotating seating. One day someone sits on the back the gets the center the next day or week. If you don't need the seats you can put them all down and have a huge area to put slot of stuff. I can fit my 29" rim bike in here without having to remove the front tire. All in all I think you'll like this more than you Cx,-7.
Thank you for this review
Parents and I just test drove one of these today, loved it. Dunno if we're gonna buy one or not but definitely very tempting :D
Great car, just missing the rear tinted windows. It feels like your in the open with no privacy at all. Man having this job is AWSOME, driving a new car every week is my dream!
Best. Auto. Reviews. Ever...
Love the COPS theme at 15:48...
Have this as a rental and this is perfect for a road trip if you have a small family (ig wife and husband and 2 kids) the second row recline to the point you feel like you are in a first class airplane seat
They're really cool vehicles. A friend has one and it's perfect for her kids. Great vid as always Kyle!
That is one nice Van, I am very impressed with all the features for the money.
It would make a perfect hauler for myself. Even though I live alone I do radio tv and computer
repair.
Great vídeo, thanks
your videos rock saabkyle04
Nice review of the van/car. Thanks. It has helped with my used car purchase. You showed me all I needed and wanted to see in the review. Really nice job.
What did you end up buying?
@@ruolov1 I bought a 2012 Mazda 5 just like the one in your video same color even. Been a good little scoot about town car. Just hit the 90,000 mile mark. Yep low miles also.
my parents would love this 2012 Mazda5 Grand Touring
Very in depth. Just what I needed prior going to the dealer test driving. Thanks
Thank you for this review, Im planning to get the 2013 Mazda 5, it will be great for putting a chair topper on it for me, as I am handicapped, this little teenyvan is perfect for me to adopt, I have a tradition of naming all my cars...and I plan to cll my little mazda 5 Timmy the Teenyvan..HEEHEE..:)..Love the review.:)
No lie dude you should be on Top Gear America, or do a guest appearance on Top Gear UK. You have the potential and the recognition from mostly anyone who saw your channel. If you would do more test drive with an in depth review just like this one then you are set. It doesn't have to be expensive cars, just cars that normal people would buy for every day usage. Set up more cameras for the twist n turns etc. Show people the cars' pros n cons. All n all keep on doing what you are doing man.
i love ur channel
Liking the sound of the engine
Cool car I love it
can't wait for this new Mazda5 to be released in my country..
Just as an FYI, the center row head rests fold down so you can fold the seats flat without having to take the head rests off like in most hatch backs and SUVs
the neighborhood you were driving around looks nice to live in..
all Mazda's now say hello and goodbye, it's pretty cool
how did i miss these past three vids?! especially a ferrari and MKS..
wow. nice review. good car.
I want to buy this mazda 5 car, but, i don't know, where is it to buy. Please help me. i am from vietnam.
i still love my routan it is a joy to drive every time
1:10 "Hello" haha, I'd buy one just for that.
the transmission on the 2011-present Mazda 5
Transmission
6-speed manual
5-speed automatic
bad boy! yeahhh!!
Nice!!!!!!
love that horn
IDK why but I like this, and I'm 22.
Midnight Mystery I have one and I’m 19. It’s just a Mazda 3 that got stung by a bee. 10/10 would recommend.
Great video, totally complete and I think better made than any from the dealer. The unique "fail" I've seen on this model is the lack of the third passenger's seat in the second row seat. I can't understand why for the US market this model comes with only capability for two passengers when in other countries there comes with the entire three seats, the mediun space is a kind of three-quarter seat but easily can be seated three people in the second row, Mazda 5 is an excellent minivan after all.
Hey Kyle when your doing night driving clips I think you show us with the Highbeams own and lowbeams for comparisons, it will only take like 4 seconds really. And I think it would be 4 seconds worth it.
That is some exceptional Sasquatch footage.
10:54 - a walking Christmas tree!!!
we don't see people carriers here in the us so i liked this car for the concept
Hey Kyle,
I have a question...
I am going to Hamilton Chevrolet in warren, Mi and i was wondering if i could get any advice on what i should act like what type of clothes i should wear...
If you have time could you please let me know that advice thanks
the 2010-present Mazda5 is assembled in
Hiroshima, Japan
Taiwan (Ford Lio Ho)
i love the way he drives.... (quietness) vvvvvvvrrrrrrrrrooooooooooooom
"Bad boys, bad boys, what u gonna do, what u gonna do when they come for you"
in my last job they have one of these, it a fun car, i really like it a lot good drive and nice interior, the gas in the 2.5 is not that good but is a nice car
I don't like vans but this is nice! I love the option of a 6 speed manual!
I'm buying one
I prefer the look of the Older 5. Also I wish you could still get it with a built-in nav
btw there is an "MPV" that also feels sporty and should be a direct competitor. It's the Ford S-max with the Volvo 2.5T.
I have one and is great to drive. Very comfortable. Can I tow a small travel trailer?
Do you know what's the storage dimension(width and length)? when we don't use the third row seat.
The handling of the 5 far exceeds that of a large minivan. It might not be straight line fast as a V6 minivan but it is miles ahead in the handling department. 10 times more fun to drive. You also have to take it for what it is, a Mazda3 hatch with a minivan body.
kyleee...when do you upload the cls amg? I can't waait...
Basically a Mazda3 wagon in the form of a minivan. I love mine :-)
Is it ok in the snow?
the front bumper is like smiley :D
oh!..I forgot...The main feature i love about little Timmy is His Big smile!..:) HEEHEE..I Love happy cars!!.:D
could you please do the in depth tour of the Ferrari california,
thanks.
do you must let go the gas while shifting in the manual mode?
We had the same one but with display in the interior
Kyle, what year is the Magnum at your family's dealership?
the transmission on the 2010-present Mazda5
Transmission

the engine on the 2010-present Mazda5
Engine
2.5L I4
2.0L I4
1.8L I4
you could be right. thanks.
Holy shit, my Mazda Protege that's 10 years older than this van uses the same style switches for the headlight adjustment.
that's standard even Korean Cars.
@saabkyle04 Where did you record this?
i would classify this van as a microvan just cause its small and cute
1:29 sounds like Hondas old starter
In Belgium (Europe) there is a diesel engine 1.6 liter 115 Hp 199 lb-ft. to this car I just order this car and waiting until end June to get it.
thats the most fucken happiest minivan ive ever seen
1:31 never thought a minivan would sound like that.
Mazda 5 also known as Mazda Premacy & Nissan Lafesta
@mytylerify Needs some MazdaSpeed DNA to finish it up!
nice minivan
Does this Mazda come with a JATCO transmission or a Mazda transmission?
Is this ok for snow? It's a little low though.
Is there optional power lift gate
this video is nearly 10 years old. Still relevant
@ilovecarsalot11 if it was bad you could always get new tires. On the highway it's about vibration and wind/engine noise
You said there is no option for powered rear doors. I don't know about that, because we have friends that own a Mazda 5, the generation before this one, and it has powered rear doors.
its the only van i would put my self in,
Is this one of the vehicles like the Kia sorento SD
i hope the current generation of Mazda 6 is coming soon.
Are the back seats removable?
What is the 2.5 L motor? FORD OR Mazda. If my history is right they shard a lot of parts.
@SanderOfficial I agree, plus I'd rather have less power and better fuel economy since that's what really matters. Seems like everyone wants 500 HP and 30 MPG, but let's face it, that's not happening
