The 2025 to 2026 Mazda3 Hatchback received five-star ratings across all NHTSA crash-test categories for US-market vehicles. The model earned five stars in frontal crash, side crash, rollover, and side pole testing, as well as an overall five-star rating. NHTSA applies these ratings across model years until a significant redesign occurs, so this five-star performance applies to the entire 2025 to 2026 range covered by this assessment.
