go Mazda!
This is one of those, you hope you never need it but glad you have it things.

Glad to see they're still doing well in these tests.
I haven't read up much on the findings overall but were there any manufacturers who's scores dropped significantly?

Only the cx-5, from 20 suvs tested, raised a good score in overall protection. In essence 19 failed, Mazda passed.
