Audi leads the way in safety standards with a string of IIHS awards in 2026.

According to the latest announcement from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) 2026 – a leading and reputable vehicle safety assessment organization in the United States, affiliated with the insurance industry and known for its rigorous testing standards – Audi continues to affirm its pioneering position with many models achieving the highest safety ratings in their segments.

The Audi models currently and soon to be distributed in Vietnam are outstanding representatives, honored in the leading group for safety according to the IIHS 2026 assessment:

Top Safety Pick+:

Audi A5

Audi Q6 e-tron
Audi A6 Sportback e-tron
Audi Q5 All New
Top Safety Pick:

Audi Q7

In particular, the new generation Audi A5 achieved a “Good” rating (the highest rating on the IIHS scale) in all major tests, along with a collision avoidance assistance system with outstanding effectiveness.

The 2026 IIHS awards are more stringent than ever, with new criteria including:

Rear-seat passenger protection.
Effectiveness of the collision avoidance system (vehicle-to-vehicle & pedestrian).

Real-world lighting performance.

Only models that meet all of these standards simultaneously will receive the Top Safety Pick+ designation.

The fact that the entire product range – from the Audi A5, internal combustion engine SUVs like the Q7 and the all-new Q5, to all-electric models like the Q6 e-tron and A6 e-tron Sportback – is included in this list of honors further affirms Audi's consistent development direction: Pioneering in technology and always prioritizing comprehensive safety.
