PEKIN, Ill. – We’re very happy to announce that the Ford F-150 earned a 2016 IIHS Top Safety Pick for the SuperCrew and SuperCab configurations, making it the only large pickup to earn this recognition.

The Ford F-150 earned the 2016 IIHS Safety Pick with its all-new military-grade, aluminum alloy body high-strength steel frame, and smart engineering. Thanks to the new build, the F-150 is 700lbs lighter, which helped it score top ratings in payload, towing, and EPA-estimated gas fuel economy.

Very proud of the achievement, Raj Nair, the Ford executive vice president, said, “From the moment our team set out to design and build the new F-150, we knew it had to be best-in-class. From the moment our team set out to design and build the new F-150, we knew it had to be best-in-class.”

Ford engineers worked diligently to make the F-150 the best and safest truck on the road. With 31 safety-related innovations, the F-150 was sure to be one of the safest on the road. The F-150 was also put through rigorous testing with supercomputer simulations and advance laboratories.

We’re also proud to say that the 2016 F-150 earned a 2016 IIHS Top Safety Pick and is the only full-size pickup that has earned a five-star rating for the driver and passenger in all crash test modes from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
