Safest Cars for Teens

A new list of the safest cars for teen drivers names over 140 recommended models across three price points: under $10,000, under $20,000, and new vehicles.

Researchers analyzed crash, braking, handling, and reliability data to rank the best small cars, midsize cars, large cars, small and midsize SUVs, and minivans. Minicars, sports cars, large SUVs, pickups and EVs were not considered.

Volvo, Mazda, and Subaru models appear frequently in the under $10,000 category, while cars by Honda, Toyota, and Ford can be found on the under $20,000 list.

Mazda, Subaru, and Honda also appear on the list of recommended new vehicles for teen drivers.
