What is the safety rating for the Prius?

I just watched a South Park episode that said the Prius ran on smugness. While I think it’s funny, I’m also intrigued by how much the Prius can save you on gas. My only issue is that I’ve had a few accidents in the past, and I want to make sure the Prius is safe. What’s the safety rating on a Prius?

The
Toyota Prius
might not run on smugness, but even the least eco-conscious person knows that the Prius saves money and the planet. Interestingly, it doesn’t skimp on the extras in terms of safety. The safety rating for the Prius is:
  • Five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
Even if you want to buy a Prius, you shouldn’t rely on safety features alone. An affordable car insurance policy goes a long way to protect you. And that’s why you should put your trust in
