Mazda has a longstanding commitment to safety, and the 2025 Mazda CX-5 continues this legacy with cutting-edge safety technologies designed to keep drivers and passengers secure on the road. With a robust suite of standard safety features and advanced options available on higher trims, the CX-5 is built to anticipate, prevent, and respond to potential hazards. Here’s an in-depth look at the safety features that make the 2025 Mazda CX-5 a standout choice.
i-Activsense® Safety Suite
At the heart of the CX-5’s safety capabilities is Mazda’s i-Activsense® suite, a collection of advanced safety technologies aimed at enhancing driver awareness and reducing the likelihood of accidents. Key features of i-Activsense® include:
- Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM): This system monitors the driver’s blind spots and alerts them to vehicles approaching from the sides. When a vehicle enters the blind spot, an indicator on the side mirror alerts the driver, helping to prevent lane-change accidents.
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA): Essential for backing out of parking spots, RCTA warns of vehicles approaching from either side. This added visibility enhances safety in crowded areas or busy streets.
- Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go (MRCC): MRCC maintains a safe following distance from the car in front, automatically adjusting speed as necessary. In heavy traffic, it can even bring the CX-5 to a complete stop and then resume driving, making for a more comfortable commute.
- Smart Brake Support (SBS) with Pedestrian Detection: By detecting vehicles and pedestrians in the vehicle’s path, this feature can automatically apply the brakes in emergencies, mitigating or preventing collisions when reaction time is limited.
- Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) and Lane-Keep Assist: LDWS alerts drivers when the vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its lane, while Lane-Keep Assist provides corrective steering to help the driver stay centered. This combination reduces the risk of lane-related accidents and helps reduce driver fatigue on longer journeys.
Standard Safety Across All Trims
Mazda makes safety a priority for all CX-5 models, equipping each trim level with a host of standard safety features:
- Eight Airbags: Passengers are protected by a comprehensive airbag system, which includes front, side, and curtain airbags for both front and rear seats, enhancing occupant safety during a collision.
- Automatic LED Headlights with High Beam Control: These headlights automatically adjust between high and low beams based on traffic and lighting conditions, ensuring optimal visibility without distracting other drivers.
- Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers: Automatically activating when rain is detected, these wipers adjust their speed to match the intensity of the precipitation, allowing drivers to keep their focus on the road.
- Rearview Camera: Every CX-5 comes equipped with a rearview camera, providing a clear view behind the vehicle to assist with parking and reversing.
Advanced Safety Features on Higher Trims
Higher trims of the 2025 Mazda CX-5 offer even more advanced safety features for added peace of mind:
- Adaptive Front-Lighting System (AFS): AFS adjusts the direction of the headlights based on steering input, allowing for better visibility on curves and corners.
- 360-Degree View Monitor with Front and Rear Parking Sensors: This feature provides a bird’s-eye view of the vehicle’s surroundings, making parking and navigating tight spaces easier and safer.
- Traffic Jam Assist: Traffic Jam Assist helps with steering, acceleration, and braking in heavy traffic, reducing the mental strain on the driver during long commutes.
Structural Safety and Passive Protection
In addition to its high-tech features, the 2025 Mazda CX-5 is engineered with a reinforced body structure that provides passive protection. This design includes side-impact door beams and crumple zones that absorb and dissipate impact energy, protecting passengers in the event of a collision. The sturdy construction of the CX-5 forms a protective shell around occupants, further contributing to its overall safety rating.
