If this means that you are looking for a safe vehicle, then look no further than the Chevrolet family of vehicles for a safe vehicle. Chevrolet has more vehicles score a 5-star rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration than any other brand with eight vehicles getting the highest possible rating.

There is a vehicle for nearly every kind of vehicle consumer on the list as well. The Chevy 5-star safety rating vehicles included the Malibu, Cruze, Volt, Sonic, Impala, Traverse, Camaro Coupe and Silverado 1500 Crew Cab. So whether you are looking for a car for yourself, your family or a work truck, you have a safe pick within the Chevrolet lineup.

Chevrolet is continually working on developing the next big thing when it comes to vehicle safety. The Volt, Sonic, Impala and Silverado all offer Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning. These systems keep the driver completely in tune with their surroundings. Forward Collision Alert notifies the driver when an object is approaching and it appears that they are not attempting to miss it. The Lane Departure Warning does just what it says, notifying the driver if the vehicle attempts to navigate out of its lane.

More traditional safety systems like air bags, rear vision camera and side blind zone alert area are also available on the Chevy models – including popular cars like the new Chevy Cruze. The Cruze and Malibu, small and mid-size cars, both have 10 standard air bags.

Clearly, the Chevrolet brand has some safe options. And they are also very stylish, efficient and heavy on performance. Check them out today at Martin Chevrolet!
