Top Safety Pick Award
The Top Safety Pick is an annual award to the best-performing cars of the year. In order to receive a Top Safety Pick the vehicle must receive "Good" overall marks in the front and side impact tests, as well as a "Good" overall rating based on the driver's seat head restraint design. Electronic Stability Control must also be at least optional. Beginning with the 2010 award, vehicles must also earn a "Good" rating in the new roof strength test.

—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
