Drivers love Mazda SUVs like the 2017 Mazda CX-5 because it delivers an incredible driving experience and great versatility. Safety is another attribute that drivers are sure to love about the 2017 Mazda CX-5, which was recently named a Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
The 2017 Mazda CX-5 earned the IIHS top score of Good in all five crashworthiness tests. It earns a rating of Superior for Crash Avoidance and Mitigation when equipped with features like its available Smart Brake Support and Smart City Brake Support systems. And it earns an overall rating of Acceptable when equipped with certain LED headlight equipment.
The 2017 Mazda CX-5 is available from our Mazda dealership near Baltimore, MD, in four trims: Mazda CX-5 Sport, Mazda CX-5 Touring, Mazda CX-5 Grand Select, and Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring.
According to Masashi Otsuka, Mazda Vice President of Research and Development, “Our Mazda Proactive Safety Philosophy guides us to develop cars and crossover SUVs that are nimble and direct-feeling to help a driver avoid incidents altogether. Our vehicles are designed and engineered to help protect the driver and passengers if a collision happens.”
With its Top Safety Pick+ rating the 2017 Mazda CX-5 rounds out the range for the Mazda brand, making the automaker the only one to offer a full lineup of Top Safety Pick+ rated 2017 models when equipped with certain available headlight equipment and crash prevention safety systems.
“To Mazda, safety is about empowering the driver as much as helping to protect him or her,” said Otsuka. “We’re proud of the accomplishments of the CX-5 development team and appreciative of the IIHS’s recognition.”
