What are the best recent crash safety ratings for passenger vehicles?
I’ve read about the major advancements in vehicle safety technology. But to me, it just sounds like a bunch of extra features that you may never use. That said, I’d like to buy a car that fared well in recent crash tests. What are some of the top crash test safety ratings for passenger vehicles this year?

Each year, car companies devise more sophisticated technology to keep drivers safe. Once equipped with this new technology, cars are sent to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) for testing. Only the best cars are awarded five-star ratings and Top Safety Pick+ ratings.Some of the best recent crash safety ratings for passenger vehicles were awarded to:
- Audi e-Trons
- Chrysler Pacificas
- Volvo XC90s
- Mazda CX-9s
- Ford Explorers
- Chevrolet Trailblazers
- Kia Stingers
- Toyota Camrys
Many more vehicles have earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS or a five-star rating from the NHTSA, but you may need to investigate a bit more to choose which one suits your needs best.
Since you’re taking a few minutes to find out more about the top-rated vehicles, why not take a few extra minutes to save on your car insurance with the
