Posted on December 30, 2024
The 2024 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awards have confirmed Hyundai's position as a leader in automotive safety, with the brand securing nine prestigious safety awards. Among these accolades, Hyundai's SUV lineup has demonstrated exceptional performance, earning top marks in the industry's most rigorous safety evaluations.
Leading the Way in SUV Safety Innovation
The 2024 Hyundai TUCSON and KONA have earned the coveted TOP SAFETY PICK+ (TSP+) designation, representing the highest possible safety recognition from IIHS. These compact SUVs, built after March 2024, excelled in all test categories, including the enhanced side impact evaluation and the more stringent moderate overlap front test, which now includes rear passenger safety assessment.
The 2024 SANTA FE and PALISADE continue this momentum by securing TOP SAFETY PICK (TSP) status, demonstrating Hyundai's commitment to safety across its entire SUV range. These midsize SUVs achieved "Good" ratings in critical crash tests, including small overlap front and original moderate overlap front evaluations.
Advanced Safety Features and Protection Systems
Each award-winning Hyundai SUV comes equipped with sophisticated safety technologies that contribute to its exceptional IIHS ratings. The 2024 TUCSON and KONA feature enhanced headlight systems that earned top marks across all trim levels, addressing one of IIHS's most challenging requirements. These models also received "Good" or "Acceptable" ratings for their pedestrian front crash prevention systems, showcasing Hyundai's dedication to protecting both vehicle occupants and pedestrians.
