20 Safest Cars of 2015

15. Subaru Legacy

Much like its cousin, the Subaru Outback, the Subaru Legacy scored “good” in all areas, and a “superior” in the front crash prevention test, according to the IIHS. The optional eyesight package allowed the Subaru Legacy to avoid a collision at both 12 mph and 25 mph. The roof was able to withstand 5.36 times the vehicle’s own weight before crushing 5 inches, earning it a “good” rating. The Subaru Legacy is equipped with a rollover sensor that deploys side impact airbags if a rollover condition is detected. In the small overlap front test, the Subaru Legacy scored “good” across the board. Driver space was well maintained, and measurements from the dummy indicated that there is was a low risk of any significant injury in a crash of this severity.
