Volkswagen Earns Yet Another IIHS Top Safety Pick
Published Friday, 04 November, 2011 by Mariah Smith. Categories: News.
Volkswagen leads the pack when it comes to safety, earning more IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) Top Safety Picks than any other brand. To determine crash-worthiness - how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash - the Institute rates vehicles good, acceptable, marginal, or poor based on performance in high-speed front and side crash tests, a rollover test, plus evaluations of seat/head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts. To earn TOP SAFETY PICK for 2011 a vehicle must have good ratings in all four Institute tests. In addition, the winning vehicles must offer electronic stability control.
VW models earning the award include the 2012 Passat, the 2011 CC, the 2011 Jetta and Jetta SportWagen, the 2011 Tiguan, the 2011 Routan, the 2011 Touareg, and all 2011 Golf and GTI four-door models.
