Safety

The Mazda5 hasn't been crash-tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Its standard safety features include seat-mounted side-impact airbags for the front seats, plus side curtain airbags that cover the side windows for all three seat rows in the event of a side impact. The Mazda5 has antilock brakes with discs at all four wheels. For 2010, the Mazda5 has added a standard electronic stability system, which had been the Rondo's main competitive advantage.
