BMW USA Press Release: The
Insurance Institute for Highway Safety today named the all-new 2012 BMW 3
Series Sedan a “Top Safety Pick”, continuing the company’s
long-standing commitment to offering class-leading safety with each new
model. In order to earn “Top Safety Pick”, a car must receive a rating
of “good”, the Institute’s highest rating, in all of four tests – 40 mph
frontal offset impact, side impact, rear impact protection/head
restraint and rollover protection – and must be equipped an electronic
stability control system like BMW’s Dynamic Stability Control.(To read more, click read more?) Disclaimer: Even though
the title suggest that the new BMW 3-Series preforms well on it's roof,
we encourage everyone on keeping the vehicle the correct side up at all
times.
