NHTSA CRASH TEST RESULTS
Overall Safety Rating

Frontal crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  *  Passenger: *  *  *  * 

Side crash ratings:
Driver: *  *  *  Rear Passenger: *  *  * 

Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags.

NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: *  *  *  * 

The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating essentially measures vehicle characteristics of center of gravity and track width to determine how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).

2002 Kia Spectra Review
"Larger and costlier than Kia's new 2001 Rio, these subcompacts share a basic 4-dr design and 1.8-liter 4-cyl engine. Sephia comes in base and fancier LS sedans, Spectra in GS and uplevel GSX hatchbacks with slightly different styling and equipment. ABS, 4-wheel disc brakes optional for Sephia LS and Spectra GSX. All models get larger front disc brakes for 2001, and Sephias add front seatbelt pretensioners, rear child-seat anchors, and in-trunk emergency release. Also new is Kia's Long Haul Warranty that duplicates the Hyundai Advantage program. Kia is owned by Hyundai. Coverage is now a lengthy 5 years/50,000 mi. basic, 10/100,000 powertrain, and 5/100,000 against corrosion, with 5 years/unlimited mi. roadside assistance.
