In the crash-test using model cars in 2010, the team found at least 28 points in the trauma that caused the collision, and traumatized by 37 points on each side collision tests.

The worst rating is the car that caused the most trauma. Each rating point gain on the trauma specific parameters depending on the region.

“The cars on our list has exceeded all Federal safety standards (U.S.),” said Russ Rader, IIHS spokesman as reported by Forbes. “Automotive manufacturers have actually been taken over safety.”

In the crash-test done, Wrangler has made trauma passengers from side impact. “When compared to its competitors, Wrangler made ill during a collision with the side door,” said David Zuby, Senior Vice President of IIHS vehicle research.

Zuby said, in an accident, a vehicle with a heavier mass will be better than small vehicles. Chevrolet Tahoe 5500 pound weight (2750 kg) would defeat the Nissan Micra that only weighs 1000 pounds.
