FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Sept. 1, 2021 – Hyundai’s 2022 Santa Fe has been awarded a TOP #safety PICK+ (TSP+) designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway #safety (IIHS). The #santafe was recognized for meeting all six IIHS crash-worthiness evaluations and improved headlight performance for vehicles built after July 2021. The full #hyundai SUV lineup now hold an IIHS TSP or TSP+ designation. This latest accomplishment places #hyundai and Genesis 2021 and 2022 product lineups as a top #safety leader with a combined 15 IIHS #safety awards.

“Safety is paramount at #hyundai, as evidenced by every vehicle in our SUV lineup earning an IIHS Top #safety or Top #safety Pick+ designation,” said Brian Latouf, chief #safety officer, #hyundai Motor North America. “Through R&D and HMMA collaborative hard work we were able to improve the Santa Fe’s LED-headlamp performance to meet the stringent testing demands by IIHS. We are extremely proud of the 2022 Santa Fe’s recent TOP #safety PICK+ rating and continuing Hyundai’s industry leadership in IIHS awards.”

To qualify for IIHS TOP #safety PICK+, the higher of the Institute’s two awards, vehicles must earn good ratings in all six IIHS crash-worthiness evaluations, including the driver-side small overlap front, passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side roof strength and head restraint tests. Additionally, vehicles must 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 and good or acceptable headlights must be standard across all trim levels.

“The 2022 #santafe models built after July 2021 come exclusively with good or acceptable headlights,” said Joe Young, public affairs, IIHS. “The #santafe also comes with a standard front crash prevention system that earns superior ratings in both the vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations.”
