Two of

Audi’s

latest models,

the completely redesigned A6 luxury sedan

and

the recently introduced Q8 flagship crossover

have each undergone testing by the

IIHS

, and each is highly rated. The

2019 Audi A6

gets the highest Top Safety Pick + award, and the

2019 Audi Q8

gets the normal Top Safety Pick commendation.

The split,

like with the pair of Volvo crossovers recently tested

, comes in

the headlight department

. The

A6

has all-around better headlights, with two of its optional units garnering the top “Good” score, and the base headlights being rated “Marginal,” the second lowest score. The

Q8

‘s optional headlights only managed to get the second-highest rating of “Acceptable,” and the base headlights were rated “Poor” for too much glare for oncoming drivers.

But headlights aside, both cars are extremely safe, each earning “Good” ratings in every

crash test

. Each car got top marks in forward collision prevention with all standard equipment. On top of that, they each earned “Good” ratings in LATCH child seat anchor accessibility, so if you’re a family of some means, these will be great for carting around small children.
