The Institute for Highway Safety recently awarded the 2013
Nissan Altima with a “Top Safety Pick Plus” designation. The award
recognizes passenger vehicles for their outstanding performance in five safety
tests issued by the IIHS.
"Driver and passenger safety are top priorities for
Nissan, which is why we make features like Safety Shield technologies
available," said Bob Yakushi, Nissan's director of product safety.
"The 2013
Altima is truly Nissan's most innovative Altima ever, and the 'Top Safety
Pick Plus' designation by IIHS reflects the engineering and design that have
gone into this car to make it stand out in the class."
