What’s the safest Mazda on the market?

My teenager would like a Mazda, but I want to make sure the car they’re driving is safe. What’s the safest Mazda available?

It’s very important to consider a vehicle’s safety ratings, especially when its owner will be a young driver. Year after year, the
Mazda
CX-5 is consistently rated as one of the safest models on the market.
We recommend the 2022 Mazda CX-5 because—likely many of Mazda’s vehicles—it was an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+, earning top safety ratings across the board. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also gave the CX-5 a 5-star safety rating.
Key safety features of the CX–5 include standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist, and standard adaptive cruise control. Also, according to several crash-test studies, SUVs are far safer than sedans—with SUV drivers at least 50% more likely to survive a car crash without serious injuries than an individual driving a sedan. The reason for this is simple—a bigger, heavier vehicle simply provides more crash protection than a smaller, lighter one.
Another way to keep your teen safe on the road is to invest in quality
