NOT ENOUGH RESTRAINT - The Land Rover LR 3 was one of just six SUVs
that received a "Good" score for its head restraints for whiplash protection in
rear-end crashes.
v Head Restraints Rank Poorly
Recent tests found that
most SUVs and pickups do a
poorjob of protecting people
from whiplash in rear-end
crashes. The Insurance In-
stitute for Highway Safety
tested the seat and head-
restraint combinations of
44 SUVs and 15 pickups. It
ranked just six SUVs with
a "Good" score, while none
of the pickups received the
highest rating. Only the seats
in the Ford Freestyle, Honda
Pilot , Jeep Grand Chero-
kee, Land Rover LR3, / £\
Subaru Forester and ^
/
VolvoXC90 earned the Insti-
tute'shighest score of Good.
The Institute rates the seat
andhead-restraint combina-
tions in two stages. It first
does static measurements
to determine the height and
distance behind the back of
the head. Restraints that
receive Good or Acceptable
scores on this part of the test
are evaluated in a dynamic
test with amovable platform
that simulatesacollision and
measures the forces to
the neck of a crash test /4*\
dummy. \/
¦ "* Camaro May Return
¦ General Motors may produce its Chevrolet Camaro concept. The car was one of the biggest hits
of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit recently. The company acknowledged it
, is on a short list of possible vehicles that could be added to the lineup of rear-wheel drive cars. GM
J executives say that if the Camaro is produced it would have a V-6 engine as standard equipment
8 and at least one V-8 engine offered as an option. It would be priced similarly to the Ford Mustang.
i GM will make its decision about the Camaro by this summer.

| ~* Another Fuel Spike
Gasoline pricescontinueto
rise. The national average for
1 a gallon of regular unleaded
is up another two cents
to $2.32. That's an 11-cent
¦ increase in one month and
51-cent spike over prices one
i year ago. Prices per gallon of
, regular unleaded across the
, country ranged from $1.89
t in Evanston , Wyoming to
1 $3.09 in Pukalani, Hawaii.
Analysts say that prices are
1
likely to continue to rise, due
to recent increases in crude f
1 oil prices.

Sportscar
Delayed ¦
Acura's plans to
offer a replacement
to the NSX sports '
car are moving /^. '
more slowly '"•—/ >
than originally planned. The
company said last summer
that the replacement vehicle
would go on sale in three or
four years. Now it says that

frame. Instead expect it in
2009 at the earliest. When
it does arrive, Acura execu-

V-10 engine, something not
