In its inaugural model year, the 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia mid-size premium sedan earns a 2017 Top Safety Pick+ (TSP+) rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
"The Giulia represents the height of Alfa Romeo engineering and technology so no effort was spared when it came to the vehicle's performance and safety features," said Reid Bigland, Head of Alfa Romeo. "We're honored to receive this award from IIHS as it shows our commitment to creating state-of-the-art vehicles."
The TSP+ designation is contingent upon achieving ratings of 'good' in five IIHS crashworthiness evaluations. The 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia achieves 'good' - the highest possible rating - in each. To achieve the 2017 TSP+ designation, vehicles must also perform well in IIHS' Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system and Headlamp evaluations. The Giulia achieved a rating of 'superior', the highest possible rating for AEB, as well as a 'good' rating for headlamps, which is also the highest rating.
