2011 Buick Regal Earns IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK
DETROIT – The 2011 Buick Regal received the highest-possible ratings of “Good” in front, side, rear and rollover crash protection tests by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, which recognized Regal as a 2010 Top Safety Pick.
“A vehicle that earns the TOP SAFETY PICK award is recognized for achieving the best performance in the Institute’s battery of tough crash test evaluations,” said IIHS president Adrian Lund. “Only vehicles with the highest rating of ‘good’ across the board, and electronic stability control for helping drivers to avoid crashes can claim this honor.”
The 2011 Buick Regal provides consumers great driving performance and a number of standard features which exemplify Buick’s commitment to continuous safety – before, during and after a crash. Regal’s sculpted, flowing design and responsive performance may be the top reasons for purchase, but the vehicle’s safety systems provide a level of confidence consumers have come to expect from their vehicle. Regal’s standard safety features include the StabiliTrak electronic stability control and full-function traction control, dual-stage frontal air bags, side-curtain air bags, driver and front passenger safety belt pretensioners and load limiters, pedal-release system and the safety and security of OnStar.
“The Buick Regal is not only catching the attention of consumers with its design and responsive driving performance but also by being a leader in its class for safety,” said John Schwegman, vice president of Buick Marketing. “The IIHS Top Safety Pick Award acknowledges our commitment to offering our customers great safety systems that enhance their driving experience.”
