The second-generation Mazda 3 earned 5 stars in the National Highway Traffic Administration's (NHTSA) frontal-impact crash test, and this week, it achieved the same result in European NCAP testing.
And because we never can seem to get our fill of cars getting smashed, we bring you additional clips of the Mazda 3 participating in NHTSA's new pole side-impact test, plus the regular side-impact test, plus the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) side-impact test.

New NHTSA Pole tests looks tough.
Wonder how long it will take IIHS makes to make it part of their ratings program?
