- (Note: Note all i-Activsense features are available on all models. i-Activsense safety features are not a substitute for safe and attentive driving.)
BLIND SPOT MONITORING
Available Blind Spot Monitoring uses radar sensors to help detect objects in your blind spots and alerts you with a warning light in your side mirror and Active Driving Display (when equipped). It also helps detect and warns you of fast-approaching vehicles that may enter a blind spot.
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
When backing up, the available Rear Cross Traffic Alert helps detect a vehicle approaching from the side and promptly alerts the driver with an audible warning, as well as a visual warning, in either side mirror and the rearview camera display.
MAZDA RADAR CRUISE CONTROL WITH STOP & GO
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go maintains a set speed and minimum following distance from the traffic ahead. If the vehicle you're following reduces speed, even down to a stop, your vehicle will automatically slow or stop as needed.
SMART BRAKE SUPPORT
Smart Brake Support in the Mazda CX-30 helps detect vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists in your path. If an impact is predicted, the system will warn the driver and, if necessary, apply the brakes.
HIGH BEAM CONTROL
High Beam Control helps the driver see better at night by maximizing opportunities to use the high beams. The system automatically switches to low beams when it detects oncoming traffic and/or a vehicle ahead - helping the driver quickly spot pedestrians and other potential obstructions on the road at night.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
The Lane Departure Warning System sense lane markings on the roads and will give you a combination of audible, tactile and visual warnings when it detects that your vehicle is about to unintentionally depart from its lane.
LANE-KEEP ASSIST
Lane-keep Assist adds to the warnings of the Lane Departure Warning System. When it senses a potential unintentional lane departure, it will perform minor steering corrections to help prevent your vehicle from exiting the lane.
DRIVER ATTENTION ALERT
Driver Attention Alert monitors the driver's steering and throttle inputs and lane position. When it recognizes driving behavior suggesting driver fatigue or decreased attentiveness, it activates a warning sound and displays an alert in the LCD Meter Display.
ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM
This available system is designed to help you see around corners at night. As you turn a corner, the headlights pivot in the direction of your turn, improve visibility and allow you to spot potential hazards ahead.
Mazda's engineers work tirelessly with the goal of creating the most eye-catching, exhilarating and safe vehicles on the road. Mazda's i-ACTIVSENSE is an active approach to safety. It uses milliwave radars and cameras to keep you in tune with your surroundings while keeping you focused on the road. Get maximum confidence and enjoyment out of your drive knowing these available systems are constantly working to alert you to potential hazards, avert collisions or reduce their severity when one is unavoidable. It's another example of our Jinba Ittai philosophy of creating oneness between car and driver.
