NHTSA Announces Model Year 2025 Vehicles for 5-Star Safety Ratings Testing

Excerpt:  “The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced its list of model year 2025 vehicles selected for testing as part of the agency’s 5-Star Safety Ratings under its New Car Assessment Program. The listed vehicles, combined with previously tested models with no significant changes in the new model year, will represent safety ratings for approximately 87% of the new vehicle fleet. This broad cross section will help consumers make purchasing decisions about the vehicles that best fit their needs. Thirty-seven vehicles have been selected for testing this year, including eight electric and hybrid models. The vehicles will be evaluated in a variety of crash scenarios, including frontal, side and rollover crashes. NHTSA also announced the five vehicles it will test to verify the performance of certain advanced driver assistance systems. The technologies for evaluation are lane departure warning, forward collision warning, crash imminent braking and dynamic brake support.”
