Acura Achieves Top NHTSA and IIHS Crash Safety Scores

acura-side-impact-test

As an appreciator (yes, I’m using that word) of fine automobiles that have a decent level of fit and finish and performance without the price tag of a German import, I was pretty happy to see Honda score (for the first time of any car out there) straight “A” scores across the board for Front, Side and Rear crash safety test results from the NHTSA and IIHS testing facilities in Japan and Ohio.

This applies to the entire 2009 fleet of Acura cars — my guess is to expect these safety enhancements designed for not only the driver and passengers, but also for folks outside the car well, to trickle into Honda’s mainstream cars for the 2010 lineup in little bits and pieces.
