Mazda 5 1.8 MZR car rental in Warsaw
The Mazda 5 has two things no other car in our fleet has: sliding side doors and a tow bar. The first change everything in a tight car park and with child seats, because the doors need no space beside the car to open. The second opens the car up to a trailer, a car transporter or a tow-bar bike rack. On top of that: a third row of seats, a naturally aspirated petrol engine with no particulate filter, and dimensions you can actually drive around town.
The car belongs to our vans and minibuses class: 7 seats, a manual gearbox and a petrol engine. Every day includes 300 km, third-party insurance with roadside assistance in Poland, servicing and seasonal tyres, and a second driver. The deposit is 1 200 PLN. We hold it on a card at handover and release it once the car has been checked on return.
We hand the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR over in Warsaw: at our office on Wiejska 12/3 free of charge, at Chopin Airport for 80 PLN, or at an address you give us for 120 PLN. We rent for at least 3 days, and the longer the booking, the lower the daily rate. We have been running the rental for 8 years.
Who Mazda 5 1.8 MZR suits in Warsaw
In Warsaw, the Mazda 5 is chosen by families with three children and by people who want to tow or carry something on a hitch. A typical rental is a move from Mokotów to Tarchomin with a hired trailer, a weekend away with bikes on a hitch-mounted rack, or a few weeks as a second family car when the children need taking to school and activities in different districts.
The Mazda 5 is the size of a compact, so it is easy to park by a block of flats or outside a school, and the third row only comes out when you need it. With every seat taken, the 115 hp engine needs more revs when joining an expressway, so plan it in good time. The five-speed manual gearbox is easy to use even for someone who normally drives a different car.
With a trailer you travel more slowly, and a lower speed limit applies on expressways and motorways. A light trailer up to 750 kg can be towed on an ordinary category B licence, while a heavier combination means checking your licence entitlements before you set off. Without a trailer the Mazda 5 comfortably takes a family with luggage for a week in the Masurian lakes or at the seaside.

Things worth knowing about the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR
The Mazda5 was previewed by the MX-Flexa concept at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show. In Japan it is called the Premacy, and it was built in Hiroshima.
Mazda called the folding seat system in this car Karakuri. It lets you travel with seven seats or with five and a large boot.
The Mazda5 shares the C1 platform with the second-generation Ford Focus and the Volvo S40.
The 1.8 MZR engine was developed with Ford, which fitted it under the Duratec name. It has an aluminium block and a chain-driven camshaft drive.
These facts are about the model generation and its history, not the equipment of this particular car.
Routes from Warsaw and the mileage allowance of Mazda 5 1.8 MZR
The daily rate of Mazda 5 1.8 MZR includes 300 km, and the allowance adds up across the whole rental. For the shortest rental, 3 days, that is 900 km. Below you can see how much of it is left after coming back from popular routes. A kilometre over the allowance costs 1 PLN.

Mazda 5 1.8 MZR compared with similar cars
If you are looking for an alternative to Mazda 5 1.8 MZR, the table sets it against the cars in our fleet that renters in Warsaw weigh up alongside it. The figures in the table and in the lists of strengths come from the price list and the specification, and under each pair we say who each car suits better.
The Mazda 5 has seven seats built in, compact-car dimensions and sliding rear doors on both sides, which beat ordinary doors in a tight space outside a school or a block of flats. The Renault Espace is longer and has five seats as standard, with three separate seats in the second row (we fit two third-row seats on request), a stronger engine (a 130 hp diesel vs the Mazda's 115 hp petrol) and a large boot. Around town with children choose the Mazda; for a long trip with lots of luggage, the Espace.
Both carry seven and have sliding doors, but the Mercedes Viano is a van with an automatic and a 224 hp V6, while the Mazda 5 is a compact MPV with a 115 hp petrol and a manual. The Viano has far more leg and luggage room, but at about 1.88 m tall it needs care with underground car parks. The Mazda parks anywhere. For an airport run with a delegation choose the Viano; for everyday life with children, the Mazda.
Both are family MPVs, but the Mazda 5 has seven seats and sliding rear doors, while the Citroën C3 Picasso has five seats and ordinary doors. With five on board the Mazda's boot holds 426 l and the C3 Picasso's 385 l, which you can enlarge by sliding the bench forward. The C3 Picasso has a frugal diesel and is shorter. For five people and low fuel use choose the Citroën; for six or seven, the Mazda.
The Mazda 5 and the second-generation Ford Focus are technically siblings, sharing the same C1 platform. The Mazda turns it into seven seats and sliding doors, while the Focus is a five-seat hatchback with a diesel that uses less than the petrol Mazda. For five people and daily commuting choose the Focus; for a bigger family and ferrying children, the Mazda 5.
The Kia Soul is a short, tall five-seater with a diesel; the Mazda 5 is a seven-seat MPV with sliding doors. The Soul is easier to park and uses less fuel but has a small boot, while the Mazda has 426 l with the third row folded and carries two more people. For a couple or a small family in town choose the Soul; for a big family and trips with luggage, the Mazda 5.
Every engine version of the Mazda 5 first generation CR (2005–2010)
The table lists the engine versions of this generation sold in Europe, with power, torque, drive and production years. The row with our car is highlighted, and versions we have in the fleet link to their own car pages. We do not rent the other versions, but the table shows at a glance how they differ from the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR.

Figures separated by a slash are the power or torque of successive variants of the same version (for example before and after the facelift) or of the versions named in the row. A range such as 136–163 PS covers several outputs of the same engine. Figures are for the European market and come from manufacturer material and technical data catalogues.
Mazda 5 1.8 MZR and other versions of this model
Other versions of this model, with a stronger engine, a diesel or from a different year, are not in our fleet. Below we explain how they differ from Mazda 5 1.8 MZR and when our car is enough.
Mazda 5 2.0 (CR) or Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
2.0 petrol, 145–146 PS, 185 Nm, manual or automatic
The two-litre petrol has 30 PS more than our 1.8 and was available with an automatic. It is livelier with a full car, but our 1.8 Mazda 5 has the same seven seats, the same sliding doors and the same folding seat system.
Mazda 5 2.0 CD diesel (CR) or Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
2.0 diesel, 110 or 143 PS, 310–360 Nm, six-speed
The diesel has much more torque, which you feel with seven people on board or when towing. Our Mazda 5 has a 1.8 petrol that is quieter in town and technically simpler, and for shorter family trips it is all you need.
Mazda 5 CW (2010–2015) or Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
second generation, sliding doors, 1.6 CD, 1.8 and 2.0 engines
The second generation kept the sliding doors and seven seats, but it was the last Mazda 5. In Europe orders were taken until September 2015 and there was no successor, as buyers moved to SUVs. Our Mazda 5 is the first generation, the same practical idea in a slightly shorter body.
Mazda 5 1.8 MZR rental terms
Deposit 1 200 PLN
Taken at hand-over, refunded within 3 business days of return.
Limit 300 km per day
Each kilometre over the limit: 1.00 PLN. The limit adds up across the whole rental.
Fuel policy
We hand the car over with a full tank and take it back the same way. Fuel: petrol.
The car has a tow bar fitted, but any towing has to be declared when booking and written into the agreement. We need to confirm the permitted towing weight and that you hold the right licence category. We do not rent out the trailer itself. Towing without prior arrangement is not covered by the rental terms.
What difference do the sliding side doors make?
They need no space beside the car, so in a tight underground car park or between two cars at the kerb you can get out normally without risking the neighbouring door. With children in car seats the difference is bigger still, because you get full, wide access to the second row instead of squeezing through a narrow gap.
How much does it cost to rent the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
We rent for at least 3 days. A day costs 129 PLN, a week 880 PLN and a month 2 500 PLN. The longer the booking, the lower the daily rate. Pick your dates in the calendar on this page to see the total.
What is the deposit for the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
The deposit is 1 200 PLN. We hold it on a payment card issued in the renter's name at handover and release it once the car has been checked on return, within three working days at the latest.
Can I lower the deposit on the Mazda 5 1.8 MZR?
Yes. The standard deposit is 1 200 PLN, but with excess insurance at 45 PLN per day it drops to 600 PLN. If there is damage covered by the insurance, you then pay no excess. You tick the insurance when booking, and the charge never exceeds the amount it takes off the deposit.
What is included in the price?
Third-party insurance with roadside assistance in Poland, servicing, inspections and seasonal tyres, a second driver at no charge once named in the contract, and pick-up at our office. The car is handed over with a full tank and returned the same way.
Is Mazda 5 1.8 MZR suitable for the route from Warsaw to Kraków?
The route from Warsaw to Kraków is about 295 km one way and about 3 h 30 min of driving, so 590 km there and back. Renting for 3 days includes 900 km, so 310 km of the allowance is left when you get back. Each kilometre over the allowance costs 1 PLN.
Mazda 5 1.8 MZR or Renault Espace 2.0 dCi: which should I choose?
The Mazda 5 has seven seats built in, compact-car dimensions and sliding rear doors on both sides, which beat ordinary doors in a tight space outside a school or a block of flats. The Renault Espace is longer and has five seats as standard, with three separate seats in the second row (we fit two third-row seats on request), a stronger engine (a 130 hp diesel vs the Mazda's 115 hp petrol) and a large boot. Around town with children choose the Mazda; for a long trip with lots of luggage, the Espace. The comparison with the other similar cars in our fleet is further up this page.
