growing almost every day. Americans that are looking to buy an SUV
are faced with a huge challenge. The fact that there is
such a wide variety of SUV's on the market today does not make
picking the right SUV easier. The safety rating of an SUV is one of
the most important factors that you should consider when trying to
figure out which one is the best one for you. Here is a list of
vehicles that have been certified with a 5 star safety rating from
the NHTSA.
The 2013 Mercedes Benz ML is a 5 passenger luxury SUV with
a five start star safety rating. This SUV is equipped with
a Collision Prevention Assist, which can be extremely helpful in
dangerous situations. The great thing about this system is that it
is in all of the 2013 models from the diesel version to the most
expensive 63 AMG version. Another great safety feature in the 2013
Mercedes Benz ML is the Attention Assist sensors. These sensors
monitor the way that the driver is driving and look for signs of
fatigue or drowsiness. Mercedes Benz also offers optional
features like blind spot monitoring system, which tells the driver
if there is another vehicle in their blind spot and a drivers
assistance system which tells the driver if he is no linger in his
lane.
Another vehicle that is certified with a five start safety
rating by the NHTSA is the 2013 Lexus RX 350 AWD. This
vehicle comes with three different versions, but only one has been
given a 5 star safety rating. The version with the
highest level of safety is the all wheel drive version of this
luxurious SUV. This vehicle costs less than the Mercedes Benz ML,
but it is also rated with five stars by the NHTSA. This SUV has 10
air bags Pre-Collusion system which tells the driver that there
might be a collusion ahead and also prepares the brakes for
it.
The 2013 Volvo XC 60 is one of the vehicles that has been
ranked with the highest safety rating. Volvo has been

come with the Volvo City Safe system. This system is designed to
reduce collusions by monitoring the road when in traffic. If the
driver does not hit the brakes on time the Volvo XC60 will
automatically stop, preventing a collusion. These SUV's have been
at the top when it comes to safety rating in SUV's. No
matter which one you choose, you will know that you are buying a
vehicle that will keep you as safe as possible when on the
road.
