Veloster Turbo actually kind of surprises me. Hyundais are stupid safe, but I guess it just goes to show that cheap + fast = dangerous. RWD with the same formula makes Toyobaru and Z cars not a surprise.

Mirage being most dangerous doesn’t surprise me, but they’re still much safer than either of my shitboxes.

interesting the Mustang isn’ t on there considering the Camaro, Challenger, BRZ and 370Z are all similar cars.

I’m pretty surprised the Wrangler isn’t on there.

Most of these cars are on platforms that are way overdue.

Because the Mustang is more fatal to pedestrians/onlookers than the driver themselves

This should be re titled “14 cars most likely to get flattened like a pancake by a Soccer Mom in an Explorer”

Yeah, but even an “updated” Wrangler is still a small vehicle with no crash protection from the doors or roof. I guess being up high must help.

a Mirage versus one of the millions of F-150s roaming around these roads will likely end badly for the Mitsubishi, or any other subcompact car for that matter, as this list bears out.

To wit:

What are they talking about that some of those cars don’t have NHTSA crash ratings? All new car  models sold in the country have to be crash tested.

Well, in all fairness, boating accidents can often be fatal.

Another reason to hate the Nissan Versa!

Really not surprising the list is mainly sub/compact cars and sports cars.

I feel like a majority of the cars on the list are owned/operated by a lot of people who are, themselves, not good drivers. So, there’s that.

As far as determining the “Most Dangerous Cars” I think this is totally useless, as really the number needs to be put within the context of both sales numbers and total number of accidents .

However, it does confirm where the idiots at both ends of the spectrum lie. People with insufficient driving talent to tame 400HP, and people with insufficient driving talent full stop. My guess is that the sporty vehicles are involved in less accidents overall (even relative to sales numbers) , just more of them end up being fatal.

This is behind a paywall for me but essentially,  using the same statistical methods from the main article, the most dangerous vehicle to drive in Denver is a Buick LaCrosse. I can’t remember the last time I saw one (though they admittedly don’t stand out in traffic).

Oh no, now I’m worried for the safety of Oppo’s most notable  Forte owner.

It can only be a matter of time before the aftermarket lift companies are sued.  The ridiculous lifts on some of these bro trucks and Jeeps defies all safety logic.  There needs to be some kind of regulations on bumper height, etc., that can be enforced.  This is from someone with a very mild 2 inch lift on my XJ, so I’m not against customization.

In most states there is, and it’s enforced. At least on the high end, I’ve never heard of anyone getting a ticket for too low of a bumper, but I don’t know too many of those people.

The new Wrangler passes rollover tests and no-longer takes the convertible exemption.  That’s why the windshield doesn’t really fold down anymore, just the glass and not the frame.
