The Mazda Mazda3 made the Forbes 10 Safest Small Cars List! Check it out!

The laws of physics always favor a larger car in a collision. That's why it's critical to choose a small car that gets top crash-test ratings and offers an extensive assortment of safety features. To qualify, a car must garner top scores across the board for performance in front, side, rollover, and rear-end crashes based on ratings determined by the IIHS' evaluations. Vehicles are rated in each category on a basis of "good," "acceptable," "marginal" or "poor" performance.
