The IIHS test helps the public to shake the "explosive" image of Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

As the first hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (HFCV) to be tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), Hyundai Nexo SUV is entitled Top Safety Pick + by the organization. The vehicle first appeared at the International Consumer Electronics Show in 2018.

To get the Top Safety Pick +, the first thing a vehicle needs to do is be able to withstand a series of crash tests.

Simply as it might sound - to withstand a series of crash tests, it is not easy to gain the Top Safety Pick +. To pocket this highest rank, the test vehicle must not only to survive, but earn a good marks on the driver-side small overlap front crash, the passenger-side small overlap front crash, the moderate overlap front crash, the side impact crash, roof strength, and head restraints and seats.
