When it comes to safety, one of the most trusted names is the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Earning a Top Safety Pick+ from IIHS means a vehicle has received their highest rating, "good," on each of five tests as well as offering a front crash prevention system that rates well. As it turns out, the 2016 BMW X1 has done all these things, and been named an IIHS Top Safety Pick+. This all-new BMW model earned good ratings in a moderate overlap front, side, roof strength, and head restraint tests, as well as the small overlap front crash test.
Not only that, but the 2016 BMW X1 is the first year of the model to provide drivers with an available front crash prevention system, which IIHS gave an advanced rating, the last step in becoming a Top Safety Pick+. And it's not just the crash tests and prevention system that help make the 2016 BMW X1 one of the safest options. There are a variety of standard safety features like Dynamic Stability Control, Brake Dry Assist, and BMW Assist eCall. And for drivers who want to take it to the next level, the available features include Lane Departure Warning, Frontal Collision Warning, and City Collision Mitigation.
It's clear that the new 2016 BMW X1 stands out when it comes to safety for you and your family, and it's just one of many innovative 2016 BMW vehicles that all offer something special to drivers.
