2025 Mazda Safety Features Explained

Mazda Blind Spot Monitoring

1. Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)

Staying aware of your surroundings is crucial for safe driving, and Mazda's Blind Spot Monitoring system helps you do just that. When there's another vehicle traveling in the lane next to yours, you'll see a visible indicator in your side mirror. If you activate your turn signal in the direction of an occupied lane, you'll also hear a warning. This feature is standard on every 2025 Mazda vehicle.

Safety Benefit: The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) reports that Blind Spot Monitoring reduces lane-change accidents and injuries by up to 23%.

2. Smart Brake Support/Smart City Brake Support

This potentially life-saving technology comes standard on every 2025 Mazda and can help you respond to potential collisions. If your vehicle's sensors predict a forward collision, you'll receive a warning so you can react. If your response doesn't come quickly enough, Smart Brake Support provides automatic braking to prevent or lessen the severity of a collision.

Safety Benefit: Automatic emergency braking systems can reduce rear-end collisions by up to 50% according to IIHS research.

3. Lane Departure Warning System & Lane-Keep Assist

Avoid unintentional lane exits with Mazda's standard Lane Departure Warning System, which alerts you if you begin drifting out of your lane without signaling. Many 2025 Mazda models also include Lane-keep Assist, which provides gentle steering assistance to help keep you on course. In some Mazda models, this steering assistance can also help you avoid a head-on collision or a blind-spot collision.

Safety Benefit: Lane departure warning systems can reduce relevant crashes by up to 11% and relevant injury crashes by up to 21% (IIHS).

4. Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)

Standard or available across the 2025 Mazda lineup, Mazda Radar Cruise Control makes highway driving easier and safer. After you set your speed and preferred following distance, this intelligent system automatically maintains your set speed until you approach a slower vehicle ahead. The system then adjusts your speed to maintain the following distance that you set, reducing driver fatigue and enhancing safety.

Safety Benefit: Adaptive cruise control systems can reduce the likelihood of front-to-rear crashes by reducing speed differentials between vehicles.

5. Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

Mazda's safety features begin protecting you from the moment you start backing up. When you're reversing out of a parking space or driveway, standard Rear Cross Traffic Alert monitors approaching vehicles from either side behind you. If a vehicle is detected, you'll receive clear warnings so you can apply the brakes and avoid a collision. Some models also feature Rear Automatic Emergency Braking (RAEB) that will stop the vehicle if you don't react in time.

Safety Benefit: Rear cross traffic alert systems have been shown to reduce backing crashes by approximately 22% according to IIHS research.
