If you’re looking for a vehicle that’s going to keep you safe in dangerous situations, look to the 2019 Mazda CX-5. It has myriad standard and available safety features that help you and your precious cargo stay more aware of what’s happening on the road around you and better prepared to react when the going gets tough.
i-ACTIVSENSE Safety
The 2019 Mazda CX-5 has access to Mazda’s suite of technologically advanced driver-assisting technologies, called i-ACTIVSENSE. These features help us all become better drivers and keeps us ready to avoid dangerous ones. Where safety features used to be mainly reactive — used when the collision has already occurred — modern technology makes safety proactive to help you avoid accidents altogether.
Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
When you equip your CX-5 with i-ACTIVSENSE, you’ll get technologies like the blind spot monitoring system, which uses radars to sense when another vehicle is in your blind spot — a game-changer when you’re changing lanes on the highway. You’ll also get a rear cross-traffic alert system, which takes away the worry from backing out of tight parking spots by letting you know when another car is coming.
Advanced Smart City Brake Support
This technology, in partnership with pedestrian detection, is your new co-pilot when you’re traveling through busy city streets. Using a forward camera, this system scans the road ahead for other vehicles and pedestrians. If it senses an impact coming, it will perform three tasks. First, it will warn you, then it will give the brakes a power boost to help you stop in time. Finally, if you don’t apply the brakes, it will apply them for you to lessen the severity of the collision or avoid it altogether.
When there is so much happening on city streets, it can be difficult to stay aware of it all. This system gives you the confidence you need to travel with ease.
Lane Departure Warning and Lane-Keep Assist
Distractions happen. When they do, Mazda’s Lane Departure Warning System is here to keep you on track. This system measures the lines on the road to alert you when you begin to drift out of your lane without turning on a turn signal.
The Lane-Keep Assist feature takes it a step further by providing small steering corrections to keep your CX-5 in its lane. When you lose focus on the road, this system helps you stay accountable and safe.
Standard Features
In addition to the CX-5’s great technological features, it also comes standard with the tried-and-true systems we’ve come to expect from a modern vehicle. An advanced system of frontal, side, and overhead air bags help to keep you safe when a collision is unavoidable. Seatbelt pretensioners keep you secured to your seat to lessen the damages of an impact. Anti-lock brakes help keep your wheels from locking up in extreme situations.
