IIHS Releases Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick+ Winners for 2018

The IIHS made some changes to their award criteria making it a little harder to qualify for a safety award this go around. The criteria now include stricter guidelines on headlights and passenger-side protection.

“Drivers expect that their passengers, who are often family, will be protected just as well as they are. Manufacturers have been taking this issue seriously since we first shed light on it, and we’re confident that good small overlap protection will become the norm on the passenger side, just as it has on the driver side,” said Adrian Lund, IISH president.

Check out some of the award-winning models that can be found at the Chris Auffenberg family of dealerships below. A full list of award-winning models can be found on the IIHS website.
