Sneak Peek: The 2007 Minivans (Part 2)

After a bit of fact and photo gathering I've managed to cobble together the next installment of the 2007 Minivan Preview. In this update we'll take a look at what's happening with the minivan offerings from Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Kia and Mazda.

Mazda is one of our more interesting entries this round, with models that represent two different forces acting on the market. The discontinuation of the Mazda MPV speaks volumes about how competitive the full-size minivan market has become, while the new Mazda5 (which some call a crossover or "tall wagon") points towards a promising new minivan category that has been immensely popular elsewhere in the world: the compact minivan.

Note: Not all manufacturers have released final 2007 photos and product information, so I'll be updating this preview as new information becomes available.
