West German BMW in Philadelphia Has the Top Safety Pick BMW X3

West German BMW in Philadelphia is proud to show customers the IIHS top safety pick BMW X3 with all new safety features.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWire) -- 01/11/2012 --The BMW X3 was named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). In order to be considered a Top Safety Pick a vehicle must receive a rating of “Good”, the institute’s highest rating, in all tests including frontal off-set crash, side impact, rear impact and roof crush. The vehicle must also have electronic stability control as standard equipment.

According to the IIHS in the frontal offset crash test, “Dummy movement was well controlled, and measures indicated a low risk of significant injuries in the event of a crash.” The findings from the side impact test were similar and once again indicated a “low risk” of injury.

Finally the IIHS performed a roof strength test, in which the X3 received a strength-to-weight ratio of 4.69. The roof test is a good indicator of a vehicle’s structural protection in rollover crashes, and a 4.69 out of 5 score for the BMW X3 was higher than most of its competitors.

Safety is a top concern at BMW and because of the high priority they give to safety their vehicles have always done well in IIHS tests. Not only is the X3 designed to keep passengers safe in the case of an accident, but it also has been engineered with many features to keep drivers from getting into an accident in the first place.
