Altima Joins 2016 #nissan Maxima, Murano with IIHS Top #safety Pick Plus; Rogue and Sentra with Top #safety Pick (When Equipped with Forward Emergency Braking) 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Today the Insurance Institute for Highway #safety (IIHS) recognized the 2016 #nissan #altima with its Top #safety Pick Plus (TSP+) designation.

The 2016 #nissan #altima joins the previously announced 2016 #nissan Maxima and 2016 #nissan Murano in earning the TSP+ rating, the highest #safety designation awarded by IIHS. The #altima scored "Good" in all five TSP categories and earned TSP+ status with a "Superior" rating for front crash prevention for models equipped with optional Forward Emergency Braking.

This latest announcement, along with 2016 #nissan Rogue and Sentra earning TSP designations, gives #nissan North America's three top selling vehicles TSP or better ratings and underscores Nissan's commitment to #safety throughout its lineup.

"Nissan is very proud to have our best-selling vehicle recognized by IIHS for excellence in vehicle #safety," said Michael Bunce, vice president, Product Strategy and Planning, #nissan North America, Inc. (NNA). "Like the new Maxima and Murano, #altima sets high standards in a very competitive class for styling, performance and value as well as #safety. We at #nissan are gratified to see that another of our core models has been recognized for excellent design and vehicle #safety."

For the 2016 model year, IIHS tightened its standards by requiring a "Good" or better rating in all five of the crashworthiness categories to earn a "Top #safety Pick" and making an available front crash prevention system mandatory for all awards. To earn the IIHS "Top #safety Pick Plus" designation, a vehicle must earn a "Good" or better on all five crashworthiness categories and also receive an "Advanced" or "Superior" rating for front crash prevention.
