NRMA, a car insurance company from Queensland, is the first insurer in Australia to offer additional discounts for cars that are fitted with ESC.
To make life easier for new car buyers, NRMA also offers an online tool to help finding the safest car. The website recommends cars in each class based on three safety criteria: the latest ANCAP crash tests results; head restraint design; and whether the car has (at least) optional Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
NRMA Insurance spokesperson Sue Hawkins said "Our research shows about one in five Queensland drivers puts safety first when shopping for new wheels. Hopefully this new tool makes it easier for consumers to consider and compare key safety features and make an informed choice about their next new car."
