Autorrive assessment
A complete, matched NHTSA crash-test record is needed for an Autorrive score.
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.
