The new smiley faced Mazda Premacy (known as the Mazda 5 here in Malaysia) is now officially on sale in Japan, with suggested retail prices of between 1,799,000 to 2,314,000 yen, including sales taxes. Not sure when Bermaz will be bringing it in as the new Mazda 5 but perhaps a few grey importers like Naza World will get to it first.
The Mazda Premacy is available with i-stop in Japan, which is Mazda’s unique idling stop system that can automatically stop and restart the engine nearly instantly to save fuel. The i-stop model grades (20S and 20E FWD) offer the highest fuel economy of any two-litre minivan in Japan, rated at 16.0 kilometers per litre (km/l) according to Japan’s 10-15 mode test cycle, while the same models with power sliding doors are rated at 15.0 km/l.
All FWD models of the Premacy in Japan are powered by a direct injection 2.0 litre engine making 150 PS at 6,200rpm and 186Nm of torque at 4,500rpm, mated to a 5-speed Activematic automatic transmission. The 4WD version uses a regular 2.0 litre DOHC engine mated to a 4-speed EC-AT automatic transmission.
The design might strike some as being unusual – the classic minivan shape is covered by various creases in the bodywork inspired by the “Nagare” concept. The drag coefficient for the new Mazda Premacy is just 0.3 cD. Look after the jump for some newly released photos of the new Premacy as well as two other previously published galleries – from the original unveiling and from the Geneva show this year.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.

cool car…how big the size is?
Interior boring grey colour.
Exterior superb.
However ppl still choosing Freed.
freed n premacy different category.
Ha ha. I’m the opposite though.
I like the interior. I think the details (knobs, buttons, lines, crevices etc) compliment the ‘dull’ grey.
Can’t stand the ‘smiley face’ though. :mrgreen:
Freed? nah…. i dun think so….
How much that millions of Yen is gonna be when converted to RM? Without the tax of course
from 65k to 83k ringgit..including tax its gonna be around 130k i guess
About RM 66K – 85K. Tax free ;-)
No Automatic Climate? Or dual climate? I think it’s about time…
i’ve seen the car at mazda building where they keep the new cars stock, infront of puspakom shah alam.
One thing when I look at MPVs….practicality.
Whats the use of MPV when it cannot even stand by its purpose.
M=Multi P=Purpose V=vehicle. Understand what I mean?
err….. so?
whats the use of having an mpv when only children can sit at the third row and no aircond at the third row?
Still cannot understand eh?
whats the use of having an mpv when only children can’t sit at the third row and no aircond at the third row?
Still cannot understand eh?
And I’m not talking about this particular MPV, I ment “others”
mid size mpv..maybe next year at malaysia market
All new third generation Mazda5 should be available in Malaysia by early 4th quarter 2010, estimated price above current Mazda5 price tag.
ZOOM ZOOM…
estima rival but come with smaller engine n maybe smaller size … nice design
What is the current price tag for M5?
Mazda5 rival is not the Estima, Mazda5 is compete with T.Wish, and Mazda8 vs T. Estima.
I want one!!! bermaz please make this affordable, below rm150k perhaps??? current m5 rm160k & below but the Yen is currently down right??? Btw is that plastic rim cover for the dark blue & black m5??
smiling car with a pair of dimple on its cheek =D
dream of exora with this kind of rear design
got this november 2015. like it apart from the facts that there is no legroom at the back and the middle row show have 2 seats and the back 3. would make more sense. prefer the toyota sienna.
middle row shoud be at the back and the back row should be the middle row
