CP Designation Originates from the First‑Generation Premacy (1999)
The chassis code CP was first used for the inaugural generation of the Mazda Premacy, which launched in Japan in 1999. This early model laid the groundwork for the later Mazda 5 that appeared in North America.
Production Span: 2006‑2015 Mini‑Minivan Era
The Mazda 5 was produced from 2006 until 2015, marketed as a smaller, more nimble alternative to traditional minivans. Its compact dimensions were achieved by sharing the Mazda3 compact‑car platform.
Engine and Parts Compatibility Simplify Maintenance
When introduced, the Mazda 5 used a 2.3‑liter inline‑four engine rated at 157 hp, the same powertrain found in other Mazda models. Because of this shared engine and transmission, owners typically find replacement parts readily available, often sourced from Japan or Europe.
