The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), which has a reputation for conducting the world’s most demanding crash test evaluations, announced the results of crash evaluations of three electric vehicles exclusively for Hyundai Motor Group this year. According to the results, Hyundai Motor Company’s Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, and Genesis GV60 all obtained the highest rating, ‘TSP+, Top Safety Pick+’. Derivative electric vehicle models were also awarded the highest rating by IIHS.

In addition, it must obtain a grade of ‘advanced’ or higher in the front collision avoidance system test (vehicle and vehicle / vehicle and pedestrian) and a grade of ‘acceptable’ or higher in the headlight evaluation of the entire trim.
