The 2011 Mazda2 comes with several safety items—such as electronic stability control and anti-lock brakes—that aren't always included on the most affordable trims of rival small-car models. Likewise, front-seat airbags, side-curtain bags, and a new Brake Override system are included in all Mazda2s.

Although the 2011 Mazda2 hasn't yet been crash-tested in the U.S., Mazda boasts that the Mazda2 has achieved top five-star ratings in EuroNCAP (European) crash tests.

Conclusion

While we can’t gauge the Mazda2’s protection yet for a lack of U.S. testing, its safety equipment list looks like that of larger cars.
