Safe but Expensive

A list of the 31 safest cars in America from the latest tally of crash test results from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. 


All of those cars cost at least $25,000.00 and most sell for well over $40,000.00. To a major of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, buying a car based on it’s safety rating is nothing but a pipe dream. Most middle class Americans can no longer afford a new car. Millions of cars are on the road are over ten years old and lack more current safety features like airbags.
