2015 Chrysler 200 gets Five-Star Rating from NHTSA

Since Chrysler rebranded the Sebring as the Chrysler 200

Since Chrysler rebranded the Sebring as the Chrysler 200, the company has struggled to sell large quantities of the vehicle. Despite the new name, it still featured many of the same features as the now defunct Sebring. While a new design a few years ago did start to bring some attention to the vehicle, it did not completely bring in the necessary buying power Fiat Chrysler really wanted. However, the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 has changed all of that. The new redesign is series and beckons to be reckoned with. The vehicle is comfortable yet performance driven, affordable yet luxurious, all at the same time. On top of it all, it is proving people do not need to spend an arm and a leg to receive a quality, safe, luxurious sedan. The vehicle recently posted some of the most impressive fuel economy numbers of any vehicle in the same make category, and the all-new 2015 Chrysler has done it again, as it recently received the five-star overall safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

The 2015 Chrysler 200 is considered a mid-sized sedan and, within its category, it received the five-star overall rating, which is the highest possible score the NHTSA gives out. In order to provide these sorts of improvements, the new Chrysler body is designed out of 65 percent high-strength and high-strength boron steel. This helps provide improved strength inside of the vehicle, so when it does make an impact, the frame of the vehicle is more likely to remain in take with the cabin proving safe and secure.

The Chrysler 200 also comes with 60 available safety features, which is the most of any vehicle considered a mid-size sedan. Plus, the new vehicle comes with a collision warning and anti-rollaway system which are both new to vehicles in the mid-size style of vehicle. The vehicle utilizes camera and radar technology in order to detect and read movement around the vehicle. This way, the car can detect if another is in the path of the Chrysler when it moves lanes or attempting to pass another vehicle. The full-speed Forward Collision Warning-Plus feature on the vehicle provides autonomous braking and, in some situations, it slows the Chrysler 200 to a full stop if the vehicle detects an imminent collision.

Of course, this is not the first desirable safety crash test and ranking the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 has received so far since it started testing feature on the vehicle. It also received the Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS). This way, any family can rest assured they are in good hands while driving the vehicle. They can also feel comfortable knowing they are saving money on their insurance rates with the improved design and safety of the vehicle.

For any family who is looking to afford a mid-size sedan but always assumed they could not pay for such a vehicle, the all new Chrysler 2000 has a starting MSRP of $21,700, which is far and away one of the very best prices of any mid-size sedan on the market today. Especially when it comes to the safety and performance features available on the vehicle.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration tests several different aspects of vehicle safety. The first is how it performs in frontal collision, the second is how it performs in a side-impact simulation with two vehicles and the third is how it performs in a side-impact simulation a single vehicle collision with a pole.

Some additional, standard safety features found in the vehicle includes the automatic activation of the parking break if the driver's seatbelt is unlatched or if the door is open while the vehicle is in reverse or forward gears. It also comes with Electronic Stability Control, electronic roll mitigation, four-wheel anti-lock brakes, ParkSense with a rear backup sense and a backup camera, plus blind-spot monitoring.
