2017 Honda CR-V Scores 'Top Safety Pick' Award

The redesigned 2017 Honda CR-V has won the Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The LED headlights of the CR-V's Touring version received an acceptable rating, while the halogen lights on the model's other variants are rated marginal.

The front crash prevention system helped the Honda CR-V avoid accidents in the Institute's 20- and 40-km/h track tests.

Also, the system has a forward collision warning system that adheres to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration guidelines.

To be awarded a 2017 Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS, a vehicle needs to have good ratings in the small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, head restraint tests and roof strength.
