What Is an IIHS Top Safety Pick?
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) nominates vehicles annually as Top Safety Picks based on their crash protection and driver-assist features. Through a series of vigorous tests, the IIHS independently verifies that vehicles protect their drivers and passengers in the case of an accident. For the 2024 awards, the organization tightened its safety checklist with tougher passenger and pedestrian protection requirements.
Which Lexus Models Scored High?
71 different vehicles were recognized by the IIHS this year, with five new Lexus vehicles earning the Top Safety Pick award in 2024:
- 2024 Lexus NX
- 2024 Lexus NX Plug-In Hybrid
- 2024 Lexus RX
- 2024 Lexus RZ
- 2024 Lexus UX
