All the cars that earned IIHS Top Safety Pick+ for 2017

A new headlight test significantly reduced the number of cars walking away with IIHS' top safety honors. Here's the list of winners, along with the categories into which they are bundled.

Andrew Krok
Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car fanatic, he started working his way through the echelons of the automotive industry, starting out as social-media director of a small European-focused garage outside of Chicago. From there, he moved to the editorial side, penning several written features in Total 911 Magazine before becoming a full-time auto writer, first for a local Chicago outlet and then for CNET Cars.
