Volvo vehicles hold more IIHS Top Safety Pick+ designations than the competition
April 28 2022,
Volvo vehicles are known for their comfort, their refinement, and of course their safety. Volvo vehicles have long been considered the safest vehicles on the road and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety seems to confirm this long-standing reputation. With more IIHS Top Safety Pick+ designations than any other luxury automaker, Volvo vehicles give their owners more confidence on the road and greater peace of mind.
To earn a Top Safety Pick+, the highest rating from the IIHS, a vehicle must receive the highest possible score in every collision test. These include the driver-side small overlap test, passenger-side small overlap test, moderate overlap test, side crash testing, roof strength testing, and head restraint tests.
Moreover, to get the highest safety rating, a vehicle must also get the highest possible grade for driver assistance safety and headlight performance.
The overlap tests are particularly challenging. They simulate the results of a collision between the corners of the vehicle and an object. This area of the vehicle has the least protection and structural integrity which makes protecting the occupants particularly difficult. And yet, Volvo vehicles stand out in this and every other test.
When you buy a Volvo vehicle, you know that you are getting a vehicle they will always protect you and that ensures that you and your family are safe on the road. Give us a call today to learn more.
