When setting out to purchase a new vehicle, safety is definitely a factor to take into consideration. There is no better way to confirm a model has the level of protection you are looking for than to check and see what its safety ratings are. To offer you some guidance, here at Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM of Pocatello we thought we'd share with you a few accolades that one of our favorite models just earned.
The 2013 Dodge Dart was recently awarded a Top Safety Pick+ rating from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS). Its plus designation indicates the model received a rating of "good" in all four crash tests, the highest a vehicle can score during evaluation. If you are looking for further verification, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also awarded the Dart a 5-Star Safety Rating.
In response to these achievements, Tim Kuniskis , President and CEO Dodge Brand - Chrysler Group LLC., explains "We are very pleased that the Dart has earned a Top Safety Pick+ designation. In addition to its solid structure - the Dart's 68-percent high-strength-steel content ratio is one of the highest in the industry - the Dart boasts more than 60 safety and security features. They include 10 standard air bags, which is unsurpassed in the compact car segment."1
Other stand out features that make the Dart such a well-rounded vehicle is its onboard technology. It includes available options like an 8.4-inch Uconnect Touchscreen media center and Bluetooth, giving it the perfect combination of innovation, safety and performance.
