The Top 3 Safest Cars 2017 Has To Offer
When we go looking for a new car, many of us find that our priorities change regarding what we are looking for. Younger people are quite concerned about how their car looks, and whether it comes equipped with all the latest gadgets and mod-cons.
There may have been a time in your life where you prioritized style above all else when choosing your car yourself. Or, perhaps at one time in your life you were a speed demon who didn’t care about any of the features on the vehicle – except for how fast it could go. Naturally, as we start to get older, these things start to become less important to us, and we start to look at other selling points in a completely new light.
Value for money is one that plenty of drivers put high on their list, and car lifespan is another (especially if you have made a big investment). Safety is something that also crops up frequently, mainly among drivers with young children, or drivers who are planning on starting a family. Of course, all cars have to be deemed safe to make it on the road in the first place. But there are some cars which boast more safety features than others: here are just a few of the top picks for 2017.
Mercedes E-class
Looking for a safe car but don’t want to completely compromise on style? Then the new Mercedes E-class could be the ideal vehicle for you. Not only is this car stunning, but it has been rated 95% efficient for adult occupant protection – a score that will take some beating.
Amazingly, this car comes with what Mercedes call the ‘pre-safe’ system; a tool that monitors the way the car is being driven to determine whether an accident is imminent. If the system decides that an accident is about to occur, it closes the windows, adjusts the seats and takes the slack out of the seat belts all in preparation for a collision.
Subaru Levorg estate
As far as estate cars go, the Subaru Levorg rates pretty highly regarding safety. Crashes often happen at high speeds as a result of people not staying in their designated lanes, and this model comes with lane detection technology to help you stay put.
A crash on a freeway like this could easily cause you serious harm – so much so that you may end up reading a Strategic Capital structured settlement review while being laid out from work with a personal injury. The Levorg isn’t the most affordable car on the market, but then again, you can’t put a price on safety.
Alpha Romeo Giulia
Feel like a saloon car is more up your street? The Alpha Romeo Giulia is a great option and is excellent when it comes to protecting both adult and child occupants. It includes side impact protection so you can be shielded from harm at every angle and also boasts whiplash-reducing seats. Plus, if you’re a little slow on the braking front, don’t worry – the Alpha has it covered with its automated braking feature.
