Shari,
Thanks for your review.
Both our Outback and our Forester are 19 year models with very low mileage. We’ll be driving them a very long time.
After having my 2015 Accord totaled in an accident a few months back, having a safe and practical car as my daily driver was a top priority. Really happy with the new Civic. It has the size of my old accord with updated safety features and more air bags along with being very enjoyable to drive.
The body structure of the Japanese car design for fuel saving very light and thin materials to build minor fender bender is fine but when driving on highway speed than you are in trouble.
i would get an suv cause i don't want to be in a civic getting hit by a pickup truck
I love the design of the new Honda Civic! Beautiful car!
@@stephenr6194 Do you think Japanese vehicles are designed with thinner and lighter materials than American cars?
I'm not surprised with these results. Subaru and Honda have dominated the IIHS top picks for years. Safety has definitely been a top priority for those brands for many years. I have a 2020 Honda CR-V, and was considered a Top Safety Pick at the time.
Thank you for this safety report. It's interesting to note there are no European luxury brands on this list. Would be great to see a future video testing the top selling EVs for both safety & reliability.
Thank you good dude Shari.
The IIHS has been upping the ante every year for awhile now. They are a great resource that way too few people know about. Thanks for highlighting the IIHS.
You're one of my favorite car reviewers. Thank you so much for this valuable information.
Wow thank you! No problem ☺️
Another great video
Always a pleasure hearing your views
Thank you!
I agree
Thanks. I never even consider a vehicle that isn't at the top of the IIHS safety list.
Great video Shari! Love all your reviews. You and Zack & Andrea are my two favorite YT channels!!
Wow thanks so much!
Another great video. Keep 'em coming Shari
I have a 2005 Honda Pilot & my girl saved our lives twice. I recently had a new driver rear end me at approximately 60 mph. I was turning & she was in the wrong lane, slammed right into me. My bumper got ripped off & the right corner panel is crunched a bit. Her car, Acura TLC, however folded like an accordion. I understand the crumple zone but her cars innards were everywhere. Thank God no one was injured. I’m looking for a newer model Honda hence the videos I’m searching. Stay safe out there!!❤
We are getting a 2023 Camry XLE AWD in about a month and glad to see the sedan is a top safety winner again!
How are you liking it so far? After watching crash tests I'm on the hunt for a much safer car 🤣 so many cars I love for what they are but not all that safe
Toyota and Honda is keeping your money and body safe.
Mazda too
@@b79747 Agreed 👍👍
Money? My local honda dealership still wants a market adjustment no thanks I'm not throwing money away because "they only have 7 new cars on the lot" not my problem and don't care! Keep it!
I have a 2012 RAV4 have not had any real issues past wear parts. I'm doing a refresh essentially of the suspension now because the rubber on the sway bar links is cracked and the boots from the struts. So just replacing all the sway bar links replace struts with KYB ,And some outer tie rods just because they're not expensive and I'm going to need an alignment any way.
What market adjustment? All car dealerships do that after you pay off a car. This isn't a new thing that's happening. And dealerships are loaded with cars at the moment at least in my area. Still not going to get a good deal like in the past. I bought my RAV4 in 2015 with 29k miles for 17k from a Toyota dealer with the included 7 year 100k warranty not getting that type of deal now. I'm running it until dead or needs any expensive repairs. It's never been in the shop past tires and inspection and the other stuff I can fix if needed like suspension.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Can you do a safety video for GLC? Thank you!!
I love the santa fe bc of its safety features but I want to find different options before settling on the santa fe
Can someone kindly explain to me that why did Mazda CX-30 4-door SUV get "2023 Top Safety Pick" instead of "+"? I found Cx-30 4-d suv matched all the required criteria for "+". Thanks in advance
Thank you! This and your least safest video helps a lot! Trying to find the safest SUV or truck to put our girls in for college and we were considering a 5th gen 4Runner simply due to its size and the Toyota brand, but surprise, it's not the safest way to go! Its smaller sibling the RAV4 and the Honda CRV are safer choices! Maybe even a Tundra... if they could park the thing!
You can't compare different class of vehicle though. An old 4 runner would probably protect them better against a smaller car than a newer Honda CRV. Ith-cam.com/video/ExQUGk12S8U/w-d-xo.html
Is there any full-size SUV that has rear collision avoidance as well as front collision avoidance?
Could you please let us know pros and cons between rav4 and xc40 (2023)
Features, performance, safety, etc etc etc?
Something I noticed through shopping and looking up these ratings: A lot of the one's you're saying are the safest don't have BOTH the updated Side and Moderate tests done. Usually it's just one, probably because they know they'll fail? So it's not really comparing apples to apples. It appears almost no car passed with full marks in the updated testing from what I've seen so far.
Have the new passenger safety tests been factored into the selection data?
Luckily the safest cars are generally the most reliable also (and good looking too).
Lexus exceeds
Can you check on the 2024 Toyota Yaris please?
Did the Lincoln Navigator or Aviator not get tested or make the cut?
🤗I am very impressed to know the brands that makes the most reliable cars also makes the safest cars
Honda Ridgeline was a Top Safety Pick.
Please do a video about wrangler
I was hot at 55mph by a truck thrown into the tiny hatchback in front of me which was a full car length away. I and the car in front of me were both at a dead stop on the highway. A truck going too fast swerved around us and the lady tailgating him struck us. My car was picked up off theground and flew into the hatch back in front of me. The back tires slammed down first then three front tires. I was driving a 1999 chevy cavalier. It cracked the back bumper and chipped the paint on the front. No air bags went off we were all fine and i drove to my tattoo apt ! The truck was drivable but had pretty good front end damage. The hatch back (honda i believe) had a long dent in the hatchback from my grill that comes to a point.
Is there a good source for safest all around, despite category?
Are small SUVs like CRV/CX5 safer than cars?
Please explain what are the updated tests. You often say models which previously were top choices, missed the list because of the updated testing. What's different about the testing?
I touched on this briefly in the intro. The impact strength of the side crash test and small overlap crash test were increased (now 4200lbs) this year to better represent the increasing number of trucks/SUVs on today's roads. This caused many past winners to now fail.
Can u do a 🎥on the best gas mileage for SUV?
I love the Mazda Cx 9
I am a current owner of 2015 Hyundai Genesis aka G80, when I trade it in I would either get Honda/Acura product or Toyota product such as Highlander/Grand Highlander!
Subaru outback have diagonal steel bars in rear doors to protect in rear crashes
volvo XC 90 is the top safe car in the world by far. No other car gets even close. I have one for 13 years now and nothing compares. Not my Mercedes cars or my Fierro or anything at all. Just hands down the safest car on earth. They are built like tanks and are driving like a sport car.
None of the Audi, VW, BMW, MB models are in the final?
Great review, cant wait for cx 90, looking sexy AF
Video is coming!
Hopefully I don't get into an accident any time soon, but I don't drive like an Ahole, either! You didn't list the MAIN causes of accidents. I would really like to know. Speeding? DUI's? Weather conditions? I was taught to drive defensively, YEARS ago! It also helped me to stay alive with my motorcycles. Don't follow anybody too closely, don't get distracted by 'media', don't do 70 in a 45, know where other cars are around you at all times....
I’ve been trying to find out if our car is safe. It’s a Lexus RX 350. I think it’s a 2020/2021. Our son’s in-laws were killed in a head on collision. It just made us sick. So now the whole family are searching for really safe cars, especially an SUV. Is it possible for you to answering me? Thank you! Sept 5, 2023
Subaru Outback has come in as Top Safety for 11th year!!!
When the time comes, my next new vehicle will be a Subaru Forester Wilderness.
Not sure why Top Safety + Pick Small SUV I see Mitsubishi Outlander 2022-23 but not in 2023 it seems odd ! another fact is car Insurance I see less premium for outlander 2023 compared to other cars ! Example for Outlander 2023 top end model I see $240 with same combination on Toyota Rav4 $300
The tests were just updated for 2023. The Outlander passed the old side impact test when the impact strength of the barrier was only 3,000lbs, but now failed when it was increased to 4,200lbs.
Wow I would of thought Bentley porshe mercedes etc would of had top points
Subaru Outback ❤❤
I hope as CX90 is launched i can get good offers on CX9
What good offers you are expecting.. cx9 and cx90 are almost similar prices..isn't it
@@akhere07 well there are rumors Mazda is going to phase out cx-3,5, and 9 to move more upmarket and premium.
why is the cx 5 not here??. it was the only compact SUV that was 5 star in 2022
He mentioned the CX5 is on par with CX 3 and CX 50
My car has a zero NCAP rating & I love it. I'm not a fan of driver assist systems as I prefer to concentrate on the job in hand myself.
What about RAV4?
Real world is not the same as standardized testing. BMW X3’s zero deaths/ mill registered vehicles show that.
A lot of the cars here have not gone through all the updated iihs testing so their grades may change. Still these tests are still a good indicator though.
Mazda and Subaru are routinely the safest vehicles.
And that’s why we own an Outback and a Forester
@@Doc1855 if they had a better in-cockpit tech and better gas milage, I would definitely go for Outback :(
@@yea-yea I don’t know about what Subaru is going to be doing with the Outback but in 25 they’re redesigning the Forester available with Toyota Rav hybrid system.
Toyota and Subaru are in bed together.
@@Doc1855 Then they should finally have that perfect child we all have been waiting for! :D
@@yea-yea 👍 Exactly
I bought a 2023 HRV Sport😊
Nice choice!
What happened to German cars?
They don't make them like they once did! Now they are built with cheaper materials, and cost more to insure! I should have kept my 57 Chevy convertible!
Why the Tesla Model Y snub?
It was briefly mentioned as well
The safest are the most reliable also, easy choice.
Nit really. These are two different things .
What about volvo？
Vw tiguan ??
I mentioned in the small SUV part that it did not pass the new side impact test.
@@carhelpcorner what about VW Atlas?
Subaru Crosstrek didn't make it?
Nope. But the new 2024 model hasn't been tested yet
@@carhelpcorner thank you. I hope you will make a review for Subaru Crosstrek 2024 w/ 2.5L engine
MAZDA3 GREAT
Mazda crap😢
@@romaivanov7312
@@lennygarrison6836 troll your father
What about Tesla Model Y?
I believe it was mentioned in the SUV section
Those are the only 4 brands worth buying... literally would never buy anything else...
The IIKS safety awards have an inverse relationship with real life survivability. only 5 percent of "Top"picks make the top 20 percentile of real life survivability, while the other 80 percent of BEST real life cars score only 2-4 stars on IIHS scoring,
Leading Japanese makers design only for test score requirements with no concern for real life performance, and have no proactive design protocols to go beyond minimum legal requirements.
They also have applied legal pressure to testers not to consider injury to crash test dummies as part of final score.
None of the minivans passed the lap tests, and Sienna failed the lap test with Submarine impact and odyssey faired poor. This information is not correct.
Craigslist a 1980's Pinto for safety.
Just as I suspected. Great job Japanese cars, except you Nissan.
I still don't undertand why people buy SUV's.
Same reason why people buy sedans, coupes, sporty cars, etc etc. it’s all preference.
Honda and Toyota dominated this haha
So many cars with headlight issues. What was the criteria for that?
The reach of the headlights are measured when the car travels straight and on curves. Sometimes the aim of the headlights is the issue, while others just have low headlight strength.
Please talk slower!! I appreciate all your advice, however I had to re run several parts of your video to get the Models & found that time consuming & frustrating!! Many thanks!!
LEXUS
Toyota/Honda. No brainer.
Don’t think Toyota are safe 😂😂😂😂
Toyota absolute worst safety features in the world all of the Toyotas
@@majood245 stop trolling.
How Odd , Its Said Americans can't build cars ,buy Japanese, But most of the cars on your list are built either in Canada or USA 🤔🤔
It’s not that they can’t. They don’t want to. They like being money pits and putting minimal effort. They could’ve easily dissected a Toyota or Honda by now and have an idea how to make reliability. They just choose not too because it takes longer and more effort to build correctly
Not to mention less money because people won’t visit mechanics or dealerships as much is the their mindset yet people still buy Toyota/Honda every year even tho they barely need to replace them. How it works is not as straightforward as we think in USA 🤣
@David Linari Don't know if that is it or Not Google Toyota, Honda, Subaru you name it They All Have their problems, Even the Mighty 4/ runner And They Are All getting parts from all over the world As cheap As They Can!! And they are being made wherever coast them the least!! And worst of all they are All Way Over Priced !
What happen to American cars ! None in your list 🤔
Tesla tops safety with lowest probability of injury with best passive and active controls in every jurisdiction from IIHS, NHTSA, ANCAP and Euro NCAP.
Chevy didn't even got 1 entry?
Honda…. HRV
Tesla : Am I a joke to you?
This list is AWFUL. The safest car you can buy is the Volkswagen Thing
This list is based on the IIHS. You can’t argue with facts with no bias. You may have bias, but tests don’t lie.
Another factual 💯 accurate review. In this Trump era of lying is normal with no accountability, this type of review is valuable and cherished. 👍
RAV4 and Subaru Outback are incredible. 💯
1) Value for the money and 2) quality/reliability are always the best analysis criteria.
Tesla has always topped the safety scores.
Even tho it was no way to open the car doors if the buttons malfunction 🤣 you have to literally breaking open in accidents and specific spots to avoid an explosion
Until AI messed up
Where are the germans! 😅😅 thought they’re safer
The Volvo XC90 is the safest car you can buy period. In the 20 years they’ve been making them no one has ever been killed in one. No other car maker can make that claim. Ask your agent what car brand is the safest. Most will say Volvo.
absolutely 100%.
Cars are getting less reliable and safe
Where are the German junks ?
None of them passed the new side impact test
agreed. Overpriced junk
@@carhelpcorner : Haha, that is why the Germany junks through and through !
I know Toyota is good car but I don’t like Toyota.
Passive means bottom and active means top in the gay world.
Toyota are really unsafe cars. In fact. Toyota Camry was rating 1 out of 5 of the side and rear airbags
Majood
Majood WRONG
I’m not faking. This is the truth
@@lennygarrison6836 do the math 🧮 😂
@@Hat65 truest
In an uninitiated view, IIHS has been manipulated by Japanese brands. Hahaha!
Facts>Feelings
No way Honda and Toyota has the weakest body structure can not be the safest vehicles
