2009 Hyundai Genesis Earns Five-Star NHTSA Crash Test Scores

We had nothing but praise for the 2009 Hyundai Genesis since we test has done is a car that easily taken up with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 series, but at a price discount.

Now, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also gave a seal of approval, the granting of this beast stately five-star crash-test almost all comments.

The Genesis received five stars in both frontal and side crash tests - something BMW and Mercedes could not reach. "These five-star results are just an indication of the commitment Hyundai engineers instead on security," said John Krafcik, vice president of strategic planning and product development for Hyundai Motor America .

Krafcik refers to Genesis' standard rigid body structure, eight airbags and active head restraints. Included in the eight airbag are counting rear side airbags, which are rare for a mid-$ 30K vehicle.

While our preferred agency is the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, NHTSA has five stars are another outlet for a car that has already received a lot for him.
