ANCAP Safety, Australia’s leading independent vehicle safety authority, has awarded All-New Mazda CX-30 SUV a five star ANCAP rating and a near-perfect score for Adult Occupant Protection, with high scores also achieved across many other key assessment criteria.  

"ALL-NEW MAZDA CX-30 ACHIEVED THE HIGHEST ADULT OCCUPANT PROTECTION
SCORE WE'VE RECORDED TO DATE WITH AN IMPRESSIVE SCORE OF 99%" 

James Goodwin, ANCAP Chief Executive.

All-New Mazda CX-30 performed exceptionally well across the range of destructive crash tests including the full width, side impact, oblique pole and whiplash tests. It also scored well in the Vulnerable Road User Protection category, notably with cyclists and pedestrians.      

A high level of physical protection offered to child occupants was also noted, with the assessment showing a wide range of common child restraints could be safely accommodated.

All-New Mazda CX-30’s Smart Brake Support (SBS) in particular was praised with vehicle-to-vehicle collisions avoided or mitigated across higher-speed scenarios, while Lane Departure Warning was also acknowledged as key contributor to the overall score.

This is on top of an extensive suite of safety features that come standard across the entire All-New Mazda CX-30 range. Like Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM), High Beam Control (HBC), Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA), Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) with Stop & Go function, Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), Smart City Brake Support [Forward/Reverse] (SCBS F/R), Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR), 360 degree view monitor, reverse camera and rear parking sensors.
