NHTSA Releases List of MY 2004 Vehicles to be Rated for Safety

The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today released a list of the model year (MY) 2004 vehicles that will be rated for safety. These ratings will provide consumers important safety information and will assist them in their vehicle purchasing decisions.

In 2004, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) has selected 89 vehicles to be evaluated in the frontal and side crash test program. The rollover NCAP has selected 56 vehicles for evaluation. In addition to these vehicles being rated by NCAP, many vehicles are incorporated on NHTSA's list as carry-over models; these vehicles' structural and safety features have remained unaltered from the previous year. Also many vehicles are corporate twins of the vehicles to be rated or carry-over vehicles. Corporate twins are vehicles with the same structure and the same airbag/safety belt interaction.

In total, frontal and side NCAP will rate 52 passenger cars, 25 sport utility vehicles, 6 vans, and 6 pickups. There will be 49 vehicles rated for frontal impact, and 40 for side impact safety. These new ratings, coupled with carry-over vehicles and corporate twins, will provide frontal and side impact safety information for approximately 84 percent and 74 percent, respectively, of the U.S. passenger vehicle fleet for model year 2004.

Rollover resistance will rate 56 vehicles, many of which were models also being rated in the frontal or side impact programs. These include 23 passenger cars, 24 sport utility vehicles, 3 vans, and 6 pickups. The integration of the rollover results with the carry-over data will offer safety information for approximately 67 percent of the model year 2004 U.S. passenger vehicle fleet.

Beginning with the 2004 rollover program, a driving maneuver called a "fishhook" test will be a factor in the NCAP rollover ratings. As before, the rollover rating uses a static stability factor (SSF) for the vehicle, but now considers whether or not the vehicle tipped up in the fishhook test. The new rating will combine the SSF and driving maneuver test results into one overall rating to enhance the prediction of rollover risk.

Safety ratings for previous model years, as well as additional information on the NCAP program, can be obtained by visiting the Web site at http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/ or by calling NHTSA's toll-free Auto Safety Hotline, (800) 424-9393 or (202) 366-0123 in the Washington Metro area.
