- Popular with parents, minivans ought to boast the safest second-row seating on the market. Instead, they’re lagging behind.
None of the four minivans tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety earns an acceptable or good rating in the updated moderate overlap front crash test, which now emphasizes back seat safety.
The Chrysler Pacifica, Kia Carnival and Toyota Sienna are rated marginal, while the Honda Odyssey is rated poor.

what about 3rd row, especially with rear end collisions?
Wait a minute. Shouldn't the side curtain airbags have deployed in the Pacifica? And the driver's head hit the door structure, no?
1:28 Omg the headrest flew off??!!! So dangerous for last row passengers!
that seat is reserved for mother-in-law, so it is probably ok.
The head rest coming off is also dangerous for the person sitting in that seat. Head rest are necessary to prevent a person's head from snapping back too far, which could lead to traumatic brain injury or even a broken neck.
The Carnival's 2nd row headrest was almost flew off too.
6 people were just killed in head on collision in a Honda Odyssey not too long ago in Texas.
None of them on the passenger seats were wearing seat belts. Nonetheless, a very sad news.
Third Row is Death Row ☠️☠️☠️
That's why Rear Collisions they don't Show or Rate.
Fatality applies to
All 3 Row Vehicles, not just minivans 😱
As a mechanics wife and a mother obsessed safety the only vehicles we will transport our children in are, Volvo xc90, subaru Forester, Acura MDX after 2019.
If you think these are bad, take a look at the Honda Pilot and Infinity qx90, shocking! Family vehicle's should be the safest on the road, unfortunately they are some of the deadliest.
Why MDX after 2019? 🤨
I'd consider the Model Y or Model X. Out performed all safety scores...mainly because they don't have a giant engine block in the front and the weight differential with the battery pack will have the vehicle always land up right in a rollover.
@@redkulaT Model Y or Model X? Ew, no thanks, electric sucks.
I would have expect that the Sienna with the non-removable 2nd row and seat belt on the seat instead of the c-pillar would fare better...
Good work.
Quite disturbing, you pay 50k dollars for a family vehicle and these greedy automakers don't take safety seriously. They only take safety seriously, when the government puts a rating on them, and it effects their reputation, and sales numbers!
depends probably werent trying to be greedy
IIHS is NOT a government body, its a private non profit standards organization like UL or ISO.
The car companies are literally paying for these guys to test them so the tests are impartial.
That doesn’t mean they didn’t prepare for it on purpose, it means the van needs a redesign or wasn’t designed right for the test.
The Odyssey used to score good.. now it scores poorly!
The test has changed. It's entirely possible a "good" then is only a marginal or even poor now. Overalls vehicles are safer than ever and the tests get tougher and tougher.
EXACTLY!!!
Not sure how to fix that other than putting a airbag in from of the rear seat occupants or a 5 points harness for kids which would be a pain to buckle up but way safer for the kids
Essentially... or the seats would have to have force-limiting dampers to allow the seat to travel forward (which would place the child's head into the back of the front seat (unless it was to move forward as well... possibly in tandem)
The Pacifica doesn't have side curtain airbags?😳🤯
By the looks of things, the Pacifica didn't need to drop them down like the others
I think it failed to deploy.
Or the computer didn't sense they needed to deploy?
The computer didn’t activate them for a front impact.
The Odyssey rear end jumped back further in the air, probably triggering its side impact bags, whereas the Chrysler was closer to the ground, so not enough side movement or roll to initiate a deploy. Frankly, doesn't look like it needed it either.
Even like the Sienna way back in 98 was very good profromer and now it’s just need its automakers who made it just keep up with the safety those rear seat passengers safety belts need some more improvements and updates to the sienna to me is a good profromer just need some more updates to it though
That such crap feel like the Pacifica got shit on seem to be the safest one in the bunch!
Well, I was really leaning towards the Kia as I love the look of it, but now I'm not sure. I had been looking at an Odyssey, but thats a definite no!
wait for the refreshed kia carnival to start being sold and see what its safety rating is then make a decision.
Newer cars are getting deadly every year I guess.
I bet your gonna walk out alive but without legs😂
The kia carnival looks like an suv…
They test these things on speeds much lower than anyone is driving on. Nevertheless the results are not good.
The side airbag is not needed for a frontal crash.

Ever heard of shrapnel?
LMAO TEA
A wise man use to say, "bricks don't hit back". Hope are these test realistic, 90% or more of the time you're involved in a car on car. They need to rest this car vs car to simulate real world . They expect people to hit super hard objects all the time? Such BS test
1. It’s impossible to test every possible crash, you would need too many vehicles, too expensive.
2. The barrier they are hitting is tougher than a car so if the vehicle can survive this it should better manage hitting a car in the same area. Would you rather have a weaker car made to pass an easier test?
3. These tests are conducted at something like 35-37mph. At higher speeds the results would be worse but you need to start somewhere!
They are professionals with professional tools, let's trust them
@alphaomega750
If they do testing like slamming cars together at 70mph every single car would rate poorly. This is the best anyone can do short of 5 point seat belts, neck braces, helmets, roll cages and so on.
they help car makers improve for the best of consumers like you.
