15 Dec 2022|1,231 views
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has announced that the Volvo XC40 is the only small SUV tested in its updated moderate overlap 2.0 test to receive an overall 'Good' rating in every test category.
One of only two vehicles to receive an overall 'Good' rating, the Volvo XC40 was the only small SUV to achieve a 'Good' rating in every individual test category as well, based on the test showing minimal risk of injuries for all passengers.
To achieve a 'Good' rating, vehicles must indicate minimal risk of injuries for front-row passengers and second-row passengers The IIHS is updating its longest running crash test, the moderate overlap front evaluation, to address what it calls a growing gap in the protection provided for front and rear occupants.
To achieve a 'Good' rating in the updated test, vehicles must not only indicate minimal risk of injuries for front-row passengers, but must now also show minimal risk of injuries for second-row passengers as well.
The XC40's safety result builds on a successful 2022 in IIHS testing for Volvo Cars. In April 2022, it was announced that Volvo Cars had achieved the highest rating from IIHS for every model tested, including plug-in hybrid and fully electric vehicles, becoming the most awarded 2022 IIHS Top Safety Pick+ brand as of April 2022.
