This paper is a review of a recently introduced cosmological model from a noncompact Kaluza-Klein theory for a single scalar field minimally coupled to gravity. We obtain that the 4D scalar potential has a geometrical origin and assume different representations in different frames. It should be responsible for the expansion of the universe. In this framework we explain the (neutral scalar field governed) evolution of the universe from an initially inflationary expansion that has a change of phase towards a decelerated expansion and thereinafter evolves towards the present day observed accelerated (quintessential) expansion. Finally, using the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism, we study extra force and extra mass from this 5D cosmological model.
