Our Chicago Volvo dealership is proud to announce that three of our Volvo vehicles have been included in the IIHS recommended list of used vehicles for teens. The following Volvo vehicles were recommended, Volvo S80 (2007 and older), Volvo C30 (2008 or older), Volvo S60 (2007-2009), and Volvo XC90 (2005 and later). When choosing a vehicle for your teenager, it's important to take into consideration all the safety ratings in used vehicles. Source: IIHS
Many teenagers are driving vehicles that don't offer good crash protection and lack important safety technology, new research by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety shows. To help guide parents toward safer choices, IIHS has compiled its first-ever list of recommended used vehicles for teens.
IIHS is known for its ratings of new vehicles, but for many families, a brand-new vehicle isn't in the budget. In a national phone survey conducted for IIHS of parents of teen drivers, 83 percent of those who bought a vehicle for their teenagers said they bought it used.
With that reality in mind, the Institute has compiled a list of affordable used vehicles that meet important safety criteria for teen drivers. There are two tiers of recommended vehicles with options at various price points, ranging from less than $5,000 to nearly $20,000, so parents can buy the most safety for their money, whatever their budget.
