Bottomline Provided you don't expect too much of a zoom-zoom feel, the 2008 Mazda Mazda5 is one of the few good choices for buyers looking for minivan spaciousness in a vehicle that's especially fuel-efficient and maneuverable. The 2008 Toyota RAV4 brings a little more space than most compact SUVs without a mid-size price.
