Kia SUV and Minivan IIHS Safety Awards - Bert Ogden Mission Kia - Mission, TX

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reviews new cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs in a number of safety tests and awards them scores based on their performances. The SUVs and minivan models from Kia have all gone through this testing for 2019 — and all earned tremendous ratings thanks to their high-strength steel body structures, advanced air bag systems, and driver-assist safety technologies. If you are an educator, medical professional, or parent in the market for a new SUV or minivan that prioritizes safety for your students, patients, or children, consider the Kia Soul, Kia Sportage, Kia Sedona, or Kia Sorento.

Kia Soul

Though small, the 2019 Kia Soul is incredibly safe. The IIHS awarded the new Soul with its Top Safety Pick designation, when the Soul is equipped with the proper headlights and optional front crash prevention. Every Soul comes standard with a Rear View Monitor; you can opt for a range of features, such as Smart Cruise Control.

Kia Sportage

You’ll get several safety technologies standard on the Sportage, including Lane Keeping Assist and Auto Emergency Braking.

Kia Sedona
