Three more Volvos earn Top Safety Pick+
![]() |
To qualify for either of the Institute’s two 2022 awards, vehicles must earn good ratings in six IIHS crashworthiness evaluations, including the driver-side small overlap front, passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, original side, roof strength and head restraint tests. They must also be available with a front crash prevention system that earns advanced or superior ratings in both the vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations.
For the lower-tier Top Safety Pick award, at least one good or acceptable headlight system must be available. For the higher-tier Top Safety Pick+, good or acceptable headlights must be standard across all trims.
The three Volvos meet all the criteria for the “plus.” They each come with a new, standard front crash prevention system that earns a superior rating in the Institute’s vehicle-to-vehicle evaluation and an advanced rating in the vehicle-to-pedestrian test. Regardless of trim, the three vehicles come with curve-adaptive, high-beam-assist-equipped LED reflector headlights that earn an acceptable rating.
The three additional Top Safety Pick+ awards bring Volvo’s 2022 total to 13 vehicles — the most among all manufacturers.
