In a world where safety is paramount, Mazda emerges as a beacon of reliability and innovation once again. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has just announced the recipients of its prestigious 2024 TOP SAFETY PICK and TOP SAFETY PICK+ awards, and Mazda stands tall among the winners. With five vehicles clinching the coveted TOP SAFETY PICK+ award and another securing the TOP SAFETY PICK accolade, Mazda reaffirms its commitment to setting new benchmarks in vehicle safety.

The Mazda3 Sedan, Mazda3 Hatchback, CX-30, CX-50 (built after August 2023), and CX-90 have all been honored with the esteemed TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation. Additionally, the 2024 model year CX-90 PHEV has secured the TOP SAFETY PICK award. This recognition underscores Mazda’s unwavering dedication to crafting vehicles that not only prioritize the safety of occupants but also extend protection to other road users, including pedestrians.

What sets Mazda apart in this landscape of safety is its proactive approach to innovation. The company has augmented its already robust safety features with rear seat belt pretensioners, load limiters, and advanced side impact airbags, ensuring that safety is not an option but a standard across all models. Moreover, Mazda’s crash avoidance systems are finely tuned to address the evolving challenges of real-world scenarios, demonstrating a holistic commitment to safety beyond mere compliance.

David Harkey, President of IIHS, commended this year’s winners as “true standouts,” emphasizing their exceptional levels of protection for occupants and vulnerable road users alike. Mazda’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of safety technology echoes through its continuous efforts to meet and exceed the stringent criteria set forth by IIHS.

Tom Donnelly, President and CEO of Mazda North American Operations (MNAO), expressed gratitude for IIHS’s rigorous testing protocols, which continually challenge Mazda to elevate its standards of occupant safety. Donnelly reiterated Mazda’s overarching mission to contribute to a “crash-free society,” underscoring the brand’s unwavering commitment to human-centric design and engineering.
