Top Safety Ratings

2017 Buick Envision safetyThe NHTSA and the IIHS are both responsible for putting each new model that enters the North American marketplace through a rigorous series of crash tests to determine which boast the kind of safety demanded by the everyday driver. The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) subjects models to rollover, front crash, and side crash simulations. The 2017 Buick Envision AWD compact SUV has earned a five-star overall vehicle score – a high rating that every Buick model has netted for two consecutive model years or more.

The IIHS (Insurance Insititute for Highway Safety) are even more exact, demanding a top rating of ‘Good’ across each of the following categories:

  • Small overlap front

  • Moderate overlap front

  • Side

  • Roof strength

  • Head restraints & seats

Duncan Aldred, Vice President of Global Buick Sales, Service, and Marketing, stated that earning “…top ratings from some of the industry’s most important safety organizations validates not only the excellence of the Envision, but further builds the Buick brand’s reputation as a leader in safety and quality.”
