The 2021 Nissan Rogue, Maxima, and Altima were all awarded the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+ designation.
All models feature Nissan Safety Shield 360 as standard equipment. Nissan Safety Shield 360 is a comprehensive system of cameras, radar technology and sonar that works to monitor in front, behind and beside the vehicle as it drives, and can step in to help keep the driver and occupants safe, according to the automaker.
The 2021 Nissan Sentra earned a Top Safety Pick award, when equipped with specific headlights, and is also equipped with Nissan Safety Shield 360
Both awards require good ratings in all six IIHS crashworthiness tests — driver- and passenger-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraints. Award winners must be available with front crash prevention that earns a superior or advanced rating in both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations.
Additionally, Top Safety Pick winners must be available with good or acceptable headlights. The "plus" designation is given to models that have good or acceptable headlights across all trim levels and packages.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) is an independent, nonprofit scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing the losses — deaths, injuries and property damage — from motor vehicle crashes.
