June 24, 2022 – Manufacturers make vehicles that are safer than those from 10 years ago, for sure. However, some are safer than others. At least that’s the finding of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the government’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
If you choose a car on this list, you can be assured you will likely survive a crash, but in many cases avoid it altogether. In a nutshell, these car models go above and beyond government-mandated safety features and manufacturer norms.
The 2022 Acura TLX shines where safety is concerned. The base version comes with eight airbags, LED exterior lights, and hill-start assist. Its safety and driver aids include lane-departure warning, forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, and Traffic Jam Assist. Adaptive cruise control and high-beam assist are standard as well.
