WHAT MAZDA’S SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES AIM TO PROVIDE
BASIC SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES
PREVENTIVE SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES
COLLISION SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES
EVERYDAY SAFETY
Every time you drive your MAZDA you can be confident it will respond intuitively to your command. Settled into a driving position designed for ideal visibility and long-distance comfort, you are in control, with the reassurance that MAZDA’s safety features are there if you need help.
HOW IT WORKS:DRIVING POSITION
MAZDA engineers studied the human body to design the perfect driving position. In a MAZDA you’re seated so that your muscles are relaxed but ready to react and positioned so that your line of sight gives you a good view of the road ahead.
G-VECTORING CONTROL
By subtly controlling engine torque as you turn into a corner, a small forward weight transfer occurs, allowing the tire to give its optimal performance. The car responds intuitively to the first steering input and negotiates the corner smoothly without corrections, making the driver and passengers feel safe.
SOMETIMES ACCIDENTS ARE UNAVOIDABLE. THAT’S WHERE MAZDA’S INDUSTRY-LEADING CRASH PROTECTION COMES INTO ITS OWN TO HELP KEEP YOU SAFE.
SKYACTIV-VEHICLE ARCHITECTURE
MAZDA cars are strong and lightweight. By using materials such as high tensile steel in areas of the body structure, engineers ensure that the car absorbs impact energy without adding extra weight.
MULTIPLE SRS* AIRBAGS
Airbags have long been a crucial part of crash protection. MAZDA uses driver and passenger airbags, plus multiple airbags to protect all occupants. *Supplemental Restraint System
EXTRA EYES ON THE ROAD
MAZDA vehicles are designed for all-round visibility and also come equipped with a number of ingenious electronic systems, such as a 360-Degree View Monitor, to help drivers see clearly.
SMART BRAKE SUPPORT
MAZDA’s Smart Brake Support uses a front camera and milliwave radar. If the system detects an imminent crash, it will ready the brakes to apply maximum stopping power. If the driver doesn’t react, it automatically hits the brakes and reduces engine power to reduce the impact.
ACCELERATION CONTROL
For cars fitted with automatic transmissions, MAZDA’s Acceleration Control system uses a camera and sonar sensors to detect obstacles, and prevents the driver from accidentally accelerating into them from a standstill.
