With the help of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), Consumer Reports (CR) managed to compile an updated list of recommended vehicles for teens. The models that made the cut include:
Best Choices:
- MIDSIZE SUVS: Audi Q4 e-tron (2022 or newer)
Good Choices:
- MIDSIZE CARS: Audi A3 (2015 or newer)
- LARGE CARS: Audi A6 (2016 or newer; only vehicles built after January 2015)
- SMALL SUVS: Audi Q3 (2015 or newer)
- MIDSIZE SUVS: Audi Q5 (2015 or newer; only vehicles built after January 2015)
To make the list, a vehicle had to score high marks in the safety department. Not only did these five Audi models receive “Good” crash-test ratings from the IIHS, but they also came standard with advanced driver-assistance features. Impressive handling and braking performances make these vehicles even more suitable for inexperienced drivers. Furthermore, highly rated headlights help elevate driver safety when traveling after dark. Some models benefit from Audi's legendary Quattro AWD system, which enhances grip and control on slippery roads.
Because these pre-owned models are affordably priced, parents can prioritize safety while maintaining a budget. Whether your teen is driving home from school or going out to the movies, you can trust that they will remain safe. Audi vehicles meet the fine balance between freedom and security. The extra peace of mind is well worth it.
If you have any questions or need help finding an Audi vehicle for your teen driver, be sure to contact Audi Springfield.
