Other Choices:
The Mazda5 is a mini-minivan with a decent powertrain, a sliding side door, and enough room for five. The Scion xB has its own alternative appeal, but seems thicker and less fun than the first-generation version. For van lovers and needers, the Ford Transit Connect arrives for the 2010 model year, offering a four-cylinder powertrain and a customizable rear cargo area.

Owner's review 5 out of 10
besides the lack of storage space inside, and the inability to heat or air condition the back where my three year old sits, the car is reliable, and very good in the snow. What drops my rating to a 5 is the very poor quality of the body. Ive had this car for 6 months and have more dings than any car I've ever owned. Small bumps such as when my mom opened her car door and it literally BUMPED the back, it left golf ball sized dent from the rearview mirror. A box I was loading into the back of my car slipped and left two LARGE scratches in the paint. The body feels like flimsy frisby material. Even though my car may last a very long time as Honda's do, who wants a banged up car to drive around forever. POOR BODY. 5 out of 10.
