Default Ford Fiesta makes Insurance Insitute for Highway Safety's Top Safety Pick award.


The Ford Fiesta was the only "minicar" to earn the Insurance Insitute for Highway Safety's Top Safety Pick award.

One of the many reasons why it's so hard to meet the criteria.

To meet the Institute's roof crush safety standard, a vehicle's roof must hold up to four times the weight of the vehicle itself. That's more than twice what's required under current federal auto safety rules.
I tell ya, we do love our Fiesta.
