The Mazda5's cabin is similar in size to its predecessor, but the design is new. The new interior shares styling cues with other recently updated Mazdas like the Mazda3 compact car. The second-row bucket seats have dual armrests, and the third row is split 50/50. Interior features include:

* Standard cloth seats; leather upholstery optional * Standard automatic air conditioning * Standard cruise control * Standard tilt/telescoping steering wheel * Standard CD stereo with auxiliary input jack and steering wheel controls * Optional Bluetooth connectivity * Optional leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob * Optional heated front seats * Optional six-CD changer
