The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has released its annual list of the safest cars for 2019.

Asian automakers are turning out the safest cars on the road according to the list.

Subaru was rated number-one with the Japanese manufacturer leading second and third place Korean brands Kia and Hyundai.

The leaders scored high on crash-test performance, collision avoidance systems, and high-quality headlights.

Only one U.S. brand shows up in any of the institute's 12 vehicle categories.

The Windsor-built Chrysler Pacifica ranks first among minivans.
