Most Dangerous Trucks and SUVs – CTV Autos
CTV Autos looks at Forbes‘ list of Most Dangeorous Trucks and SUV’s.
(It’s important to note that all of the trucks on this list exceed US federal safety standards, and are safer than new cars made even a decade ago: They are the “Most Dangerous” only in the context of similar new models):
There’s good news for automakers this summer: Domestic sales of cars and trucks were up almost 15 per cent in July, and are on track to reach 11.8 million units by the end of the year.
The biggest gains came in the truck and luxury SUV segments. But some trucks and truck-based SUVs still posted declines in sales for the month, including the Chevrolet Colorado and Hummer H3.
Why didn’t they do as well as the rest of the segment? Perhaps because they have some of the lowest safety scores in their class — making them among the most dangerous new trucks on the road.
