Safety is probably your #1 priority when shopping for a new Volkswagen. This is a trusted brand that has historically been known for its safety features across a broad range of cars and SUVs. Volkswagen always has exceptional crash test scores peppered with high-tech safety features. But how can you know which one is best when taking a look at the 2019 VW lineup? Here are some of our favorites:
Volkswagen Atlas
This midsize SUV has three rows and seven seats, first introduced in 2018. The 2019 version doesn’t have many changes but still has very high safety scores, thanks to a five-star overall crash test rating from the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It also got Top Safety Pick designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
You get a standard rearview camera and automatic post-collision braking system, with upgrades possible for blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision monitoring with automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, lane departure warning, 360-degree camera, and front and rear park assist.
Volkswagen Tiguan
Marked by exceptional safety scores, this compact SUV has been called the best new car for teens and families by U.S. News and World Report. It’s a Top Safety Pick of the IIHS. This crossover, fully redesigned for 2018, features a standard rearview camera with available safety upgrades such as 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors, lane departure and forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, and auto emergency braking.
Volkswagen Golf SportWagen
