The 2016 Nissan Sentra has earned a Top Safety Pick Plus Rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) when it is equipped with the optional Forward Emergency Braking technology. This technology is included with the optional Technology Package that is available on the 2016 Nissan Sentra SR and SL models. In order to earn the Top Safety Pick Plus rating the Forward Emergency Braking system had to earn an “advanced’ or “superior” rating and the vehicle itself needed to earn a rating of “good” or better in all five of the IIHS crash tests. "Nissan is proud to have another of our core vehicles recognized by IIHS for vehicle safety," said Michael Bunce, vice president, Product Strategy and Planning, Nissan North America, Inc. (NNA). "Nissan has the safety and security of Nissan vehicle owners and their passengers as its top priority, so we are glad to see our long-term investment in safety showing results in these latest IIHS tests."
