6. Hyundai Genesis

The Hyundai Genesis scored “good” in all areas, and a “superior” in the front crash prevention test according to the IIHS. The optional tech package, which includes automatic emergency braking, allowed the Hyundai Genesis to avoid an accident at 12 mph and 25 mph. The roof was able to withstand 4.95 times the vehicle’s weight before crushing 5 inches, giving the Hyundai Genesis a “good” rating. In the small front overlap test, the Hyundai Genesis scored “good” across the board. No injuries were recorded on the dummy, the driver space was well maintained, and the dummy’s movement was well controlled. The airbag stayed in front of the dummy until rebound, and the side curtain airbag deployed and had sufficient coverage to protect the head from contact with the side structure.
