Families looking for a safe, practical set of wheels for a recent high school graduate or other young drivers do not need to look further than Young Subaru. Subaru has earned eight spots on IIHS and Consumer Reports 2023 teen driver recommendation list.
The recommendations are based on a comprehensive evaluation by both institutes on various criteria, including vehicle type, size, reliability, emergency handling, braking distance performance, safety ratings, and insurance claim rates.
This year’s recommended new vehicles are all 2023 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK or TOP SAFETY PICK+ winners. That means they have good ratings in three frontal crash tests — driver- and passenger-side small overlap and the original moderate overlap — a good or acceptable rating in the updated side test, advanced or superior ratings for front crash prevention (including daytime and nighttime pedestrian detection), and standard acceptable- or good-rated headlights. Injury claim rates from recent model years are also factored in.
For used vehicles, IIHS/CR split their recommendations into “Best” and “Good” lists, and Subaru secured multiple positions on the used vehicle Best Choice list.
Used Vehicles: Best Choice
Subaru Impreza sedan or 5-door (2018, 2022)
Subaru Legacy (2013-2021: built after August 2012)
Subaru Outback (2015-2018, 2022)
Subaru Forester (2018 or newer)
