The Mazda5 has been spruced up for 2008, with a new look and more options available across the range.

Mazda’s latest design look has been applied to the 5, including a new front grille, bumpers, lights and alloys, while the chassis tweaked for better handling and refinement, reducing emissions and improving fuel economy in the process.

A new luxury pack is available as an option, as are power sliding doors, a new automatic gearbox and a six-speed manual.

A new Sports Styling Pack is also offered, and is standard on Sport and Sport Nav models.

The DVD navigation system has been upgraded, and links to a rear-view parking camera.

There are also five new paint colours to choose from.
