Safest cars of 2009

The safest cars of 2009 were conducted in a study and we are going to unveil them for your pleasure. 2009 was an excellent year for cars in both aesthetics and in safety. Some of the safest cars of 2009 are surprises and some of them are steady winners. Let's check out and see what we have coming.

Among the safest cars of 2009 were from the Honda family of vehicles. The vehicles were all fairly priced and had excellent amenities as well. The Honda has a large number of safe vehicles to include the very popular Accord and the newer Pilot vehicle. These rated among the top 15 safest vehicles. Honda had five others in the top 15 so this makes it the most prominent of the car brands to make the top list.

Subaru also clearly has a top class when it comes to the safest and the most fairly priced as well. The top cars from Subaru to make the list of 2009's safest cars were the Legacy, the Impreza, and the Tribeca. These cars feature unique all-wheel drive and other safety features that make them among the top of line in safety and strength. They are make with a ring shape reinforcement body structure that truly makes them able to withstand hard testing and ultimately can fare better in an accident than most other vehicles.

Also among the best were the Saab 9-3. The superior construction truly made it among the elitre. There is a pendulum b-pillar side-impact structure as well as a head curtain with side airbags and even torso bags to protect its passengers from side impact. This is amazing and truly makes it one of the safest cars of 2009.

America's Ford and Chrysler companies missed the list altogether unfortunately. It appears as though the foreign made cars are better as far as safety standards are concerned. With the auto makers taking huge hits with the financial crisis, this obviously wasn't the best time for their safety standards to be under par.
