Kia Wins Eight 2022 IIHS Top Safety Pick+ And Top Safety Pick Awards 

Every year the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gives out awards for Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick+. These awards are given on the basis of six crashworthiness tests: driver-side small overlap front, passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, original side, roof strength, and head restraint. The cars with a ‘Good’ rating win the Top Safety Pick Award. Cars with an additional  ‘Good’ or ‘Acceptable’ headlight system rating win the Top Safety Pick+ Award. 

This year Kia ruled the awards with the Telluride, Sorento, Seltos, Carnival, Sportage and Soul winning the Top Safety Pick Award and the K5 and Stinger taking home the Top Safety Pick+ Award. This means that Kia took home a whopping eight awards at the 2022 awards ceremony. So not only is Kia having one of the best selling cars in its portfolio but it also has the safest models on offer.

Yaser Shabsogh, Chief Operating Officer, Middle East and Africa, Kia Corporation commented: “As Kia makes tremendous strides towards innovation with our line-up of vehicles, passenger safety remains our utmost priority. These eight Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick+ awards from IIHS are a testament to our commitment to delivering the highest standard of safety and quality for our customers.”
