It was only going to be a matter of time (and a formality), but Mazda has announced that the 2020 Mazda3 has aced the U.S. government’s frontal crash, side crash, and rollover tests allowing it to receive a 5-star safety rating—the highest the NHTSA can give.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s 5-star safety rating helps consumers make smart decisions about safety when purchasing a vehicle. The 5-Star Safety Ratings program evaluates how vehicles perform in crash tests. NHTSA conducts frontal, side, and rollover tests because these types account for the majority of crashes on roadways.
The Mazda3’s performance in the NHTSA test echoes the tougher Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) safety tests which garnered it a Top Safety Pick+ rating for 2020.
Aside from its stellar crash structure, the 2020 Mazda3 is fitted with technologies recommended by the NHTSA such as forward collision warning, lane departure warning, crash imminent braking, and dynamic brake support.
These features are found in Mazda’s i-Activsense safety system, standard in the 2020 Mazda3 Sedan and Sportback models. It’s priced at P 1.495 million and tops out at P 1.590 million.
