The 2016 Mazda CX-3 has earned much recognition and praise for its safety features, appearance, price, and other features. It was named Car and Driver's #1 Subcompact Crossover, earned the Top Safety Pick and Award from the non-profit Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and was one of the Mazda vehicles recognized as Kelly Blue Book's (KBB) lowest 5-Year Cost to Own brands.

This year, the 2016 requirements included a new evaluation: “an advanced rating in available collision-prevention technologies like automatic braking.” The Mazda CX-3 has no shortage of safety features, from Smart City Brake Support, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM), Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), Active Driving Display pop-up head-up display, and daytime running lights and tail lights. You can be sure when you’re driving the CX-3 — you are covered from every angle.
The CX-3’s multitude of storage options, push button start, blind spot monitoring, and rearview camera emphasize safety and performance, and come together to create a crossover that is attractive, fun to drive, and offers a variety of features for both individuals and families. Overall, the Mazda CX-3 is a car that combines the features of a luxury car with the performance of a crossover to offer a vehicle that is sleek, efficient, and tops many of the cars in its class.
