Ron Carter Chevrolet Says Today's Smaller Vehicles are More Safe
While there are a lot of trucks and large SUVs on our Houston dealership lot, Ron Carter understands that some buyers are looking for smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles to accommodate their lifestyle and their wallet.
A lot of car buyers worry that smaller vehicles are not as safe as their larger Chevrolet counterparts. In the past, smaller cars may have been rated lower for safety crash tests but today's models often include top of the line safety features like stability control and side-impact airbags.
Consumers can check the safety ratings and crash test results at Safercar.gov to see how the vehicle of their choice rates in their size class. The rating scale uses a star system with 5 stars being the best rating. These starred ratings appear on the window stickers of new vehicles on our Houston dealership lot.
If you are interested in a fuel-efficient vehicle at an affordable price, compact vehicles may be the way to go. If you have concerns about a vehicle's size where safety is concerned, check with our expert staff for more information.
For added protection, you can also go for the extra safety options available on Chevrolet vehicles. The most important thing to remember about vehicle safety revolves around your abilities as a driver. If you are a safe driver that observes the speed limit signs and remains free from distractions while on the road, you are at less risk for accidents. However, you have no control over how other drivers operate and safety concerns should be addressed before you buy your next Chevrolet so you'll always have the peace of mind that you are protected.
