Thursday, January 5, 2012 Special pullout section 4 Pages Verano earns IIHS 2012 top safety pick The all-new Buick Verano, with its 10 standard air bags, is an U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick for 2012, and completes a sweep of Buick cars and crossovers earning the designation. General Motors is among industry leaders with a total of 14 IIHS 2012 Top Safety Picks, including 13 models that previously qualified for the 2011 award and were carried over to 2012 because their structure is substantially the same as the institute tested for 2011. In addition to the Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Enclave, carryover winners included the 2012 Chevrolet Cruze, Sonic, Volt, Equinox, Malibu and Traverse; the Cadillac CTS (sedan) and SRX, and GMC Terrain and Acadia. The IIHS tests vehicles to determine how well they protect occupants in front and side crash tests, in rollovers via a roof strength test, and simulated rear impacts to evaluate seat and head restraints for protection against neck injuries. The Verano achieved a `good' score in all four types of tests performed and has standard electronic stability control, which the IIHS requires for Top Safety Pick designation. --Metroland Media Carguide Magazine The 2012 Buick Verano has been named a Top Safety Pick by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
