Subaru: all models given top safety rating

Dec. 23, 2010

Dec. 23, 2010—Subaru is the only auto manufacturer with a 2011 Top Safety Pick winner for each of its models, according to Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) 2011 crash test results.

The Top Safety Pick is chosen out of vehicles that do the best job of protecting people in front, side, rear and rollover crashes based on “good” ratings in each category. “Good” is the highest rank possible, followed by “acceptable,” “marginal” and “poor.”

"We know our customers take their safety very seriously and so we are very pleased that IIHS has recognized us again as the only manufacturer with a Top Safety Pick winner for all its models," said Tom Doll, executive vice president and COO, Subaru of America Inc. "This is an outstanding success and a tribute to the engineering that goes into our products. The IIHS reinforces to our customers that Subaru maintains the highest standards to produce vehicles that are fun-to- drive, durable, reliable as well as safe."
