Results showed that the Built Ford Tough truck outperformed all 11 other trucks in its class on the passenger-side small overlap front crash test, and was the only truck to earn the top-tier good rating in every category. This is all coming off the heels of being awarded a five-star overall vehicle score by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, plus a five-star rating for driver and passenger for all crash test modes.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has released test results showing that among all light-duty crew cab pickups measured in small overlap front crash testing for both driver and passenger, the 2019 Ford F-150 is the only truck to earn its top-tier good rating in all categories. Among 11 pickups, F-150 is also on top as the best performer in passenger-side small overlap front crash testing.
“F-150’s smart engineering, plus the innovative combination of its high-strength steel frame and high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy body continues to demonstrate enduring customer benefits – from repeated class-leading crash test performance to best-in-class towing and payload,” said Hau Thai-Tang, Ford executive vice president, Product Development and Purchasing.
