2021 Acura TLX and RDX Earn Highest Possible Safety Award From IIHS
Searching for a new vehicle to buy or lease that instills peace of mind and confidence during each and every daily commute, errand run, or family road trip? If so, you’ve come to the right place, as our Frank Leta Acura dealer near St. Louis offers the 2021 Acura TLX and the 2021 Acura RDX — both of which received the highest possible safety rating from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS).
What Makes The Acura TLX and RDX so Safe?
Both Acura models qualified for TOP SAFETY PICK+ by earning a top rating of “GOOD” in all crashworthiness tests, a “SUPERIOR” rating for the Collision Mitigation Braking System™, and standard “GOOD” rated headlights.
All Acura sedans and SUVs feature the AcuraWatch™ suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies as standard equipment, including Collision Mitigation Braking System™, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow and Road Departure Mitigation. The 2021 Acura RDX and TLX, of course, feature Acura’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ body structure that is designed to enhance occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions with a network of connected structural elements to distribute crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle and reducing the forces transferred to the passenger compartment. Additionally, Acura’s illuminating JewelEye™ LED headlights help both of these models achieve their best-in-class ratings.
To earn the 2021 TOP SAFETY PICK+ award, a vehicle must earn good crashworthiness ratings in all test modes, including the challenging passenger-side small overlap test. It also needs available front crash prevention (standard on RDX and TLX) that earns an advanced or superior rating in both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian testing and standard good- or acceptable- rated headlights.
