Autorrive assessment
An Autorrive score needs an additional permitted, configuration-matched independent assessment of crash protection, prevention and headlights.
Additional independent testing
IIHS evaluates crash protection, crash prevention and equipment using its own tests and grading system.
A verified independent assessment is not yet included in this report. NHTSA results above remain separate from an Autorrive composite score.
