Mazda has introduced a new diesel version of its popular Mazda 5 car to European markets.
The Mazda 5 1.6D offers customers a powerful, small-displacement turbo diesel engine that is fuel efficient, affordable to run and fun to drive.

It is available in eight colours, including all-new clear water blue metallic.

The car also features a 4GB navigation system with hands-free Bluetooth operation and a 14.7cm touchscreen monitor.
Mazda recently committed to meeting all fleet vehicle orders within 10-14 days.
