Altima, Maxima, and Rogue Earn Top Safety Pick+

Dec 16, 2016

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently released their annual list of Top Safety Pick vehicles and three 2017 Nissan vehicles were chosen for the “Top Safety Pick+” designation, which is the highest rating a vehicle can possibly receive. The 2017 Nissan Altima, 2017 Nissan Maxima, and 2017 Nissan Rogue were chosen as Top Safety Picks after scoring with at least a “good” rating in each of the five crashworthiness tests. They earned their “Plus” status by achieving an “advanced” or “superior” rating for front crash protection and having the available Forward Emergency Braking.

“Nissan is proud to have many of our North American-built vehicles recognized by IIHS for vehicle safety,” said Michael Bunce, vice president, Product Strategy and Planning, Nissan North America, Inc. (NNA). “As a full-line manufacturer, Nissan places the safety and security of Nissan vehicle owners and their passengers as its top priority. Considering that 85-percent of the vehicles we sell in the U.S. are assembled in North America, we are gratified to see the company’s long-term investment in safety yielding results in these key vehicles receiving high marks from IIHS.”

All three of these Nissan vehicles are available for test drive at Destination Nissan! Stop by and see us today.
