ACTIVE SAFETY RESTRAINTS

The seat-belt system allows for full range of motion while still providing maximum protection during an accident.

Pretensioners instantly tighten the belt in the first instant a moderate frontal impact is detected.
A force limiter modulates the belt's pressure on the occupant's chest, helping to prevent seat belt-related injuries.
All seating positions are outfitted with three-point seat belts*.
Equipped with second-row tethers and LATCH child-safety-seat anchors and third-row upper tether, child-safety-seat anchors*.

* Remember to always wear your seat belt and secure children in the rear seat.

NEXT: Triple-H Construction

TRIPLE-H CONSTRUCTION

Triple-H construction is the ultimate in safety engineering — providing maximum protection to the passenger cabin.

Helps preserve the integrity of the passenger cabin during a collision by using H-shaped structural components built into the sides, roof, floor and firewall, as well as side-impact door beams for added protection.
The MAZDA5 recently received the highest possible rating in frontal-impact and driver side crash test ratings by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)*.

* Government star ratings are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA's) New Car Assessment Program (www.safercar.gov). Vehicle tested with standard side-impact air bags (SABs).

NEXT: Air Bags

AIR BAGS

The advanced air bag system of the MAZDA5 takes safety to the next level.

Advanced dual front air bags provide maximum protection while adjusting deployment force based on the severity of the crash, seat belt use, the driver seat position and passenger weight to reduce the risk of air bag-related injury*.
Standard front-seat mounted, side-impact air bags provide protection for the occupant regardless of the seat's position.
Standard side air curtains drop from the roof just above the doors to provide head and torso protection for first-, second- and third-row passengers in side-impact collisions.

* Remember to always wear your seat belt and secure children in the rear seat.

NEXT: 4-Wheel Disc Brakes

4-WHEEL DISC BRAKES

Coming to a quick, smooth stop is not a problem with road-sensing disc brakes standard on all four wheels.

Standard anti-lock brakes (ABS) come equipped with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist.
EBD allocates braking power among all four wheels depending on their respective force loads.
Brake Assist detects emergency braking and assists the driver in applying full pressure to the system.
The Tire-Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicates if one or more tires have incorrect tire pressure, keeping the tires in top-shape for improved fuel efficiency and safety.
