lambobaby1218 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I heard on the news this morning about the newest safest cars. I was wondering about IS, if the National Crash Testing and Highway Safety company has posted anything for the 2007 IS. Still, nothing. Anybody know how safe the IS would be?? I believe with all those airbags, it has to be safe, but can't find any reportings on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry993 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 The IS models are rated "acceptable". Note that these surveys focus on passive safety. Nothing like avoiding an accident in the first place, with a car that handles and brakes well. Insurance Institute ratings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Its rated Good for front and side, acceptable for rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry chester Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I hate to say it, but since I only sit in the front . . . . . . . looks good to me :) larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartkat Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I think the VDIM makes it even safer than cars without stability control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambobaby1218 Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Yeah, I couldn't find that part. I guess if I'd just searched further..... That's what I kinda figured, that the back part didn't make it acceptable for them. Looks good to me!! I now refuse to have anybody in my back seat, since it's so small, and people just scuff their shoes on the door panel on the way out.........
