Nissan Altima Safety Ratings
Every year, independent safety organizations, like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) perform a variety of tests to determine how safe models are. While safety testing through these organizations is optional, Nissan is adamant about proving how safe their vehicles are, like the 2023 Nissan Altima.
While not all safety ratings have been released for the 2023 models, we can look at previous years to better understand the crashworthiness and the crash avoidance abilities of the Nissan Altima from the past decade.
Safety Organization | Number of Years Won |
IIHS | TOP SAFETY PICK+ award winner for 5 years TOP SAFETY PICK winner for 5 years |
NHTSA | 10-year 5-Star Overall Safety Rating winner |
As you can see, the Nissan Altima always goes above and beyond in terms of safety. The proof is in the pudding!
Now that you know more about how highly independent, third-party organizations rank the Nissan Altima in terms of safety, let's take a closer look at how it always receives such high ratings.
