Only two pickup trucks met the 2023 IIHS Top Safety Pick award criteria: the 2023 Rivian R1T crew cab and the 2023 Toyota Tundra crew and extended cab.
With the new criteria for the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick only two American manufacturers landed on the list, and they're not the ones you'd think.
The only midsize pickup truck that received an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award is the electric 2023 Rivian R1T. Other midsize trucks, such as the Toyota Tacoma and Ford Ranger, were left empty-handed.
