The Award
For a vehicle to win the 2024 Top Safety Pick award, it must achieve high marks in several safety tests. These include tests for both the small overlap and the traditional moderate overlap, as well as the updated side crash test. Additionally, all versions of the vehicle must come with headlights that are rated as either acceptable or good. These vehicles also need to score well on a test for avoiding crashes with pedestrians, which now combines what used to be separate daytime and nighttime evaluations into one test conducted both in the daytime light and the dark.
