Insurance Institute Releases Mazda2 Crash Ratings
The IIHS performs a frontal offset crash test, where 40% of the front of the car crashes into a fixed barrier at 40 mph. In the side-crash test, a 3,300 lb moving barrier strikes the side of the test vehicle at 31 mph. In the IIHS roof strength test, a metal plate is pushed against one side of a roof at a constant speed. To earn a good rating, the roof must withstand a force of four times the vehicle's weight before reaching five inches of crush. The rear impact test is a simulated rear impact conducted on a sled, and used to assess how well the seats support the torso, neck, and head of a test dummy in a rear impact. The test simulates a rear-end crash with a velocity change of 10 mph, approximately equivalent to a stationary vehicle being struck at 20 mph by a vehicle of the same weight.
With six standard air bags, standard Dynamic Stability Control, and Triple-H body structure, Mazda2 has always placed a high priority on occupant safety. These new IIHS ratings reinforce for our customers that safety is part of the Mazda2 equation.
