At International Cars, we’re proud to provide drivers from the Merrimack Valley in New Hampshire to Northeast Massachusetts with a compelling selection of high-quality and competitively priced vehicles. And while we think all our new cars, trucks, and SUVs are worth of praise and accolades, it’s always nice to note when some of our most popular new models earn awards and esteem aside from our own. That’s the case with the new Kia Telluride and the Kia EV9, both of which recently earned Top Safety Pick+ awards from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Now, for those unfamiliar with the awards, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, or IIHS for short, is widely regarded as one of the chief auditors for automotive safety. Its stringent criteria and rigorous testing is the driving force behind the IIHS Top Safety Pick Awards, an annual assessment of the top vehicles for safety on the automotive market. And as many drivers around the Seacoast New Hampshire and Northshore Massachusetts area know, safety is paramount on the roads today.
Luckily, both the Kia Telluride and the Kia EV9 passed IIHS testing with flying colors this year, earning the prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award for both models. Of course, with the innovations of Kia Drive Wise technologies onboard, it’s no wonder these two innovative SUVs earned such high marks in both crash preparedness and crash prevention.
With these awards, drivers from the Lakes Region in New Hampshire can feel safer and more confident than ever buying or leasing a new Kia EV9 or Kia Telluride from our dealership. Feel free to drop in for a test drive today.
