NHTSA'S latest rollover resistance ratings and crash test results

for 2001 model year vehicles are now available on the agency's Web site at www.nhtsa.dot.gov.

Vehicles are rated for rollover resistance, frontal impact, and side impact.

Frontal tests should be compared only within the same weight class.

A fact sheet, containing explanatory information and tables showing NCAP rollover resistance ratings and crash test results for model year 2001 vehicles, is available by calling the NHTSA Office of Public and Consumer Affairs at (202) 366-9550 or by writing to NHTSA Public Affairs, Room 5232, 400 Seventh St., S.W., Washington, DC 20590. Rollover resistance ratings and crash test information are available at www.nhtsa.dot.gov/hot/rollover/2001rollover.html or at www.nhtsa.dot.gov by clicking on "Crash Tests" under "Popular Information" in the index on the left side of the screen.
