The 2017-model year Chrysler 200 mid-size sedan has maintained its five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The five-star overall rating applies to the front-wheel-drive (FWD) version of the Chrysler 200. The all-wheel-drive (AWD) version hasn’t been rated.
To qualify for the five-star overall rating — the highest possible — the Chrysler 200 scored five out of five stars in the frontal and side crash tests. The model scored four out of five stars in the rollover evaluation.
“The Chrysler 200 remains an outstanding value for many reasons, most notably its superior performance in various safety tests,” said Bruce Velisek, director of Chrysler brand marketing for FCA US.
Passive safety systems, such as a vehicle’s body structure, help mitigate the effects of a crash. More than 60% of the Chrysler 200’s body structure consists of high-strength steel, which helps the vehicle maintain its integrity during collisions.
Active safety systems, such as Full-speed Forward Collision Warning-Plus, help drivers avoid crashes. Among the Chrysler 200’s 60 available safety and security features, Full-speed Forward Collision Warning-Plus benefits from sensor-fusion technology that combines a camera with a radar sensor to deliver greater object-detection precision, according to FCA US.
Full-speed Forward Collision Warning-Plus provides alerts, autonomous braking and, under certain circumstances, slows or brings the 2017 Chrysler 200 to a full stop when a frontal collision appears imminent.
