About the awards and ratings

  • To qualify for 2023 TOP SAFETY PICK, a vehicle must earn good ratings in the driver-side and passenger-side small overlap front and original moderate overlap front tests. It also must earn an acceptable or good rating in the updated side test and an advanced or superior rating in the daytime vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention test. In addition, acceptable or good headlights must come standard across all trim levels.
  • To qualify for 2023 TOP SAFETY PICK+, a vehicle must meet the same criteria except the updated side rating must be good, and an advanced or superior rating is also required in the nighttime vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention test.
  • The driver-side small overlap front rating is based on a 40 mph crash test in which 25 percent of the vehicle's width on the left side strikes a rigid barrier.
  • The passenger-side small overlap front rating is based on a 40 mph crash test in which 25 percent of the vehicle's width on the right side strikes a rigid barrier.
  • The moderate overlap front rating is based on a 40 mph crash test in which 40 percent of the vehicle's width strikes a deformable barrier. In the original test, one dummy is seated in the driver seat, while the updated test also includes a second dummy seated behind the driver.
  • The original side rating is based on a crash test in which an SUV-like barrier strikes the driver side of the vehicle at 31 mph. The updated side rating is based on the same type of crash at 37 mph with a heavier barrier.
  • The vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention ratings are based on tests involving dummies that move across or stand in the roadway. Automatic braking performance is tested at different speeds and, in the case of the nighttime evaluation, with the vehicle’s low-beam and high-beam headlights.
  • The headlight rating is based on the illumination provided by a vehicle's headlights on straight roads and curves. Each rating applies to a specific headlight type.
  • The seat belt reminder rating is based on the timing, duration, volume and audio frequency of warnings triggered when occupants are unbelted while the vehicle is traveling above 6 mph.
  • The child seat anchors (LATCH) rating is based on an ease-of-use evaluation of vehicle hardware for installing child restraints. This rating only applies to the specific trim level and seat type evaluated, indicated on the vehicle details page.

Small overlap front and moderate overlap front ratings should be compared only among vehicles of similar weight. The other ratings listed here can be compared across vehicle categories.
