2008 Ford Taurus, 2007 Acura MDX: Top Safety Picks

The newly restyled and renamed Ford Taurus makes an impressive appearance on the Insurance Institute For Highway Safety’s Top Safety Pick list, joined by the all-new Acura MDX SUV. The award goes to vehicles that pass front and side crash tests with the insurance industry group’s top rating, as well as providing additional safety features including stability control.

Both car companies had to improve their vehicles to earn the important nod. The MDX had to improve its head restraints while the Taurus had to add stability control. It is now an option, while in the previous model, named the Five Hundred, it was not offered at all.
