First crash tests of minicars: Nissan Versa earns the highest overall rating; three minicars earn poor ratings in side tests

First crash tests of minicars: Nissan Versa earns the highest overall rating; three minicars earn poor ratings in side tests: " For the first time, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has tested the smallest vehicles sold in the US market, which gain popularity as fuel prices rise. Now these cars are rated for comparison of occupant protection in front, side, and rear crashes. The Nissan Versa earns good ratings in all three tests. Two other cars earn good ratings in front and side but not rear tests"
