IIHS Crash Test Ratings, Worst To Best (Original Tests)

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) conducts safety reviews of vehicles in various simulated traffic situations. In this ranking list, we rank cars based on their overall ratings for small overlap front (driver and passenger), moderate overlap front and side tests. These are tests with the original criteria, and not the updated 2024 testing criteria.
