Safety technology

Mazda safety technology encompasses a range of advanced safety systems and technologies specifically designed to protect the vehicle occupants.

These technologies combined with great driving dynamics, superb handling and control features, and a host of features such as energy-absorbing cabin trim, and improved head/tail lamp design for increased visibility, provide a feeling of total confidence and safety.

	Airbags and Seatbelts Once a collision has occurred, MAIDAS disperses the impact energy and keeps occupants safe by minimising cabin deformation. Because we're looking at a frontal impact, the airbags should now deploy. Find out more about Airbags and Seatbelts

	Anti-lock Braking System - ABS ABS works by detecting individual wheel-lock and momentarily releasing the brakes on that wheel, by decreasing the amount of brake fluid supplied to the wheel to allow the wheel to regain traction. Anti-lock braking systems were first introduced onto Australian roads in the early 1980's and it is now standard equipment on many vehicles. Find out more about ABS technology

	Electronic Break-force Distribution - EBD EBD allocates braking force to the wheels with the most grip, according to vehicle loading. Find out more about electronic Break-force Distribution (EBD)

	Emergency Brake Assist - EBA Brake-assist monitors brake pedal force and input speed to determine when emergency braking is occurring. When detected, it automatically applies maximum braking force to all wheels. Find out more about Emergency Brake Assist (EBA)

	Whiplash Minimising Seats In the event of a rear impact, whiplash-minimising front seats protect the necks of the driver and front passenger. Find out more about Mazda's whiplash-minimising front seats
