Five IIHS Top Safety Pick Models Are Available at Salazar Kia in Phoenix

 

Avondale, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/28/2012 -- Salazar Kia is proud to offer five IIHS Top Safety Picks to their Phoenix customers. Salazar Kia places a high importance on vehicle safety and is always happy to show off the innovative features that help their vehicles keep passengers safe.

All new vehicles undergo rigorous testing by the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety, and those who perform at the top level are awarded the Top Safety Pick designation. In order to be named a Top Safety Pick, a car must earn the highest possible score in all four crash tests performed: front, rear, side, and rollover, as well as offer Electronic Stability Control. In each crash test, the vehicle is given one of four scores: poor, marginal, acceptable, or good. This means that all five Kia models offer Electronic Stability Control and received the highest rating of “good” in all four tests they were subjected to.

The Kia Forte Sedan, Optima, Sorento, Sportage, and Soul are the five models that made the cut. Some of the safety innovations that helped these models withstand the rigorous crash tests include an advanced airbags system, which monitors things like the severity of an impact, whether or not a front passenger is present, and seat belts are in use to control airbag inflation, dull-length side-curtain airbags, an impact-absorbing steering column, brake assist, and front and rear crumple zones.
