The giant automaker Honda has announced that its Honda Civic 2013 sedan has received the safety rating of "Five Stars" from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This is not less than a cool blow to its competitors that the 2013 Civic will receive honor from Insurance Institute For Highway Safety (IIHS). If we talk the whole rating in several criteria, the sedan has claimed four stars in roll over rating and five stars in side-impact crash test.

Long popular for its solid build quality and functional versatility, the 2012 Subaru Outback once again has loads of appeal, including a pleasant ride, respectable off-road capabilities for a wagon, a spacious cabin with generous storage possibilities and good crash test scores. Of particular uniqueness is its 8.7 inches of ground clearance that's paired with a very competent all-wheel-drive system.

While not yet possessing the brand name pizzaz of its top rivals, this will likely change over time as the Genesis once again offers smooth and powerful engines, a comfortable ride, a luxurious interior, outstanding audio systems and top crash test scores. And one thing the Hyundai brand name does get recognition for is its generous warranty.

The 2011 Chevy Tahoe is again very likely to be a top pick in the traditional, truck-based large SUV segment due to its comfortable and spacious cabin, powerful engine and robust towing capability, solid build quality and outstanding crash test ratings.
