Mazda 2026 CX-5: Advanced Safety Meets Everyday Confidence

RICHMOND HILL, ON. (January 20, 2026) – Mazda North American Operations today released a new video featuring Jennifer Morrison, Director of Vehicle Safety, highlighting the all-new 2026 CX-5’s comprehensive safety technologies. The video demonstrates how Mazda continues to put safety first, combining award-winning crash protection with a full suite of standard driver-assist features designed to help prevent accidents and protect everyone on the road.

The 2026 CX-5 builds on its longstanding reputation for safety, introducing an even more impressive suite of standard safety and driver assistance technologies, such as Rear Automatic Emergency Braking, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, forward Turn-Across Traffic Braking, Emergency Lane Keeping, Blind Spot Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Speed Limit Assist—all standard across every trim. These systems work together to help detect potential hazards, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcycles, giving drivers confidence in a variety of everyday situations.

“That’s what is most important to us, protecting our customers and everyone they share the road with,” said Morrison.

The new CX-5 also includes improvements such as an enhanced 360-degree parking camera, smoother radar cruise control performance, and Lane Change Assist, which allows the vehicle to safely change lanes at the touch of a turn signal. With these updates, the CX-5 continues Mazda’s mission to reduce accidents, minimize injuries, and move closer to zero roadway fatalities.

Built on a foundation of award-winning crash protection and standard safety features across all trims, the all-new CX-5 is designed to give drivers confidence and peace of mind on every journey.
