The 2025 Mazda CX-90 is gaining the attention of Bellevue families after being named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). This distinction highlights the midsize SUV's exceptional crash protection and accident avoidance capabilities. This prestigious safety award provides extra peace of mind for Bellevue drivers and families seeking one of the safest vehicles on the market.
To earn the challenging Top Safety Pick designation, the CX-90 had to earn top "Good" ratings in all six IIHS crashworthiness tests, including driver- and passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength, and head restraint evaluations. "Good" is the highest rating the IIHS awards in its crash tests. The midsize SUV had to be available with front crash prevention systems that earn an "Advanced" or "Superior" rating in vehicle-to-vehicle and daytime vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations.
The CX-90 comes equipped with a suite of advanced safety features as part of the Mazda i-Activsense package. This includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, which can detect a potential collision with a vehicle or pedestrian and automatically apply the brakes to avoid or mitigate an impact. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert help the driver detect vehicles in hard-to-see areas, providing an extra set of eyes on the road.
Lane departure warning and lane keep assist are also standard. They alert the driver if the vehicle starts to unintentionally drift from its lane and provide gentle steering corrections to help keep the CX-90 centered. Adaptive cruise control maintains a set following distance from the car ahead, automatically slowing down and speeding up as needed. For Bellevue area families who prioritize safety, these features provide welcome reassurance and assistance to avoid accidents.
Inside the cabin, occupants are protected by a strong safety cage, multiple airbags, and active head restraints that move up and forward in certain rear collisions to reduce the distance between the occupant's head and the headrest. This helps provide better protection against whiplash and neck injuries. Parents will appreciate the LATCH child seat anchors and tethers in the second row, allowing for secure and convenient car seat installation.
