2026 Subaru Forester, Outback & Ascent Earn Top Safety Pick+

At Ferguson Subaru, safety is more than just a feature—it’s a promise. Subaru continues to lead the way in vehicle protection, and that commitment has once again been recognized at the highest level. The 2026 Subaru Forester, 2026 Subaru Ascent, and 2026 Subaru Outback have each earned the prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award, the top honor from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

For drivers in Tulsa, Broken Arrow, and surrounding areas, this recognition reinforces what Subaru owners already know—these vehicles are built to keep you and your passengers safe on every journey. The Forester, in particular, continues an incredible legacy, earning a Top Safety Pick award for 20 consecutive years, making it one of the most consistently recognized vehicles on the road today.

The IIHS introduced even stricter testing standards for 2026, placing greater emphasis on rear-seat passenger protection and advanced crash prevention systems. Vehicles must now perform at a higher level in moderate overlap front crash tests, including the use of a rear-seat dummy to better evaluate passenger safety. In addition, updated criteria require improved performance in detecting and preventing collisions with other vehicles and pedestrians. These tougher standards make the Top Safety Pick+ designation more meaningful than ever—and Subaru continues to meet and exceed expectations.

One of the key reasons behind Subaru’s continued success in safety is its commitment to advanced driver-assist technology. Every 2026 Forester, Outback, and Ascent comes equipped with Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology, a system designed to provide an extra layer of confidence behind the wheel. Features like Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, Pre-Collision Braking, and Emergency Stop Assist work together to help monitor traffic, maintain safe distances, and respond to potential hazards before they become serious.
