Celebrating the Top Safety Pick + Rating for Nissan Rogue

Top Safety Pick + Rating for Nissan Rogue

Safety standards are a wonderful triumph of the modern auto process. Over the years, the industry’s understanding of driver-friendly safeguards has deepened for the better—and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has been the driving force behind much of this development.

As one of two organizations looked toward as an auto safety authority, IIHS has built a name for itself behind industry-trusted crashworthiness assessments. Fortunately for fans of Nissan’s popular SUV line, Rogue recently scored the Institute’s highest rating for vehicle safety—an event which is prompting Matt Castrucci Nissan to examine what goes into an IIHS safety rating.

Demonstrated via the IIHS website, the organization evaluates new vehicle models using five tests for automotive safety. From head-on collisions to roof strength and even seating safety value, IIHS leaves no stone unturned. And apparently neither did Nissan when designing its new Rogue crossover. Achieving the highest possible score in all five categories, the IIHS happily handed down a Top Safety Pick + rating for Nissan Rogue. The + part of that distinction indicates a vehicle available with advanced forward collision prevention technology.

Though crash testing is a tough and trying job, Matt Castrucci Nissan is glad that the folks at IIHS have established a sound method for holding the industry to a high safety standard. After all, that’s exactly what drivers and their passengers deserve when climbing behind the wheel of a new vehicle.
