When you're looking for a new car in the Washington, PA area, safety is definitely on your mind. But you can't forget about style. Wouldn't a combination of both be amazing? The Mazda6 delivers that, and we can say it with confidence, now that it's earned "Top Safety Pick+" honors from IIHS.
The new "plus" designation refers to the vehicle passing both the frontal moderate overlap test, which has been the standard for years, and the new small overlap test. That puts the Mazda6 in some pretty elite company in regards to vehicle safety. Not to mention, it's the third new Mazda vehicle to be acknowledged by IIHS. Both the Mazda CX-5 and Mazda3 gained spots on the "Top Safety Pick" list as well.
Surprised? Don't be, just attribute it to the SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY. The chassis and body are both made of hi-ten steel, letting you better absorb impact should you have a collision. The build is strong, but light, giving the Mazda6 efficiency, complimented by the SKYACTIV-G transmission and engine.
Other safety features include Traction Control, DRLs (daytime running lights), and optional features including Smart City Brake Support, Blind Spot Monitoring, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
