2015 Nissan Sentra Earns IIHS Top Safety Pick
The 2015 Nissan Sentra has received the crash test results from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
The IIHS has given the 2015 Nissan Sentra a Top Safety Pick award as the sedan improved from a poor to a good rating in the small-overlap frontal crash test. The Japanese automaker made changes to the front structure, A-pillar and door sill while the side-curtain airbag was lengthened to help protect the driver’s head – all changes that paid off for the Sentra.
Compared to the 2013-2014 Sentra, the 2015 model year had its driver space much more well maintained during the small-overlap crash test, having less than five inches of intrusion at the lower door hinge pillar. Previously, the Sentra had 13 inches of intrusion at the lower door hinge pillar.
