Here at Fields Volvo Northfield, as well as throughout the entire Volvo family, safety has always been a top priority on all of our vehicles. We're proud to announce that one of our vehicles recently earned a very high honor when it comes to safety, and we hope you're read on to learn all details!
For years, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has made Top Safety Pick designations for vehicles that pass a series of stringent safety tests as well as offer electronic stability control. Recently the IIHS introduced an all-new award to recognize superior safety performance, the Top Safety Pick+ designation.
This new award recognizes good or acceptable performance in the new small overlap collision test, and we're thrilled to report that the 2013 Volvo S60 was one of only 13 vehicles to earn this new designation, and one of two midsize luxury vehicles to currently earn the Top Safety Pick+ award.
In speaking of all the winders, Adrian Lund, IIHS president, said:
"Of the 29 models evaluated so far in our small overlap frontal crash test, these 13 cars offer the highest level of all-around crash protection. … We're pleased to recognize them with our new TOP SAFETY PICK+ award for 2013."
