Absolutely not in most cases. But my definition of safety may be different from yours. My definition of safety is being able to AVOID an accident versus your vehicle’s ability of being able to plow through an accident. Lets compare the numbers that I consider most important for having a safe car: 60–0 mph braking distance: How safe is a car that generally takes longer to stop in an emergency than other cars? Why risk your life and your occupant’s lives rolling the dice to see if you can survive the immense forces placed on your squishy meat bag of a body while hitting another vehicle or some large animal on the road? A well braking vehicle will allow you to stop quickly enough to avoid certain scenarios. Skid pad g: How safe is a vehicle that can’t even turn fast enough, lose traction, or flip over while trying to avoid an accident? Because of having less suspension travel, having less weight to have to fling around, and sometimes even having stickier, sportier/less bubbly tires than an SUV, a car has better chances at maneuvering itself out of a dangerous scenario. Skidpad g is the number of g forces a vehicle will pull before losing traction. The higher the g it can hold, the longer it will stay holding on to the road before losing traction. Have you noticed Skid pad hasn't even been mentioned in the other answers? This is a vehicle’s maneuverability. The higher this number is, the lower the chances are of losing control. Acceleration power: How safe is a vehicle that can’t even get out of the way of an impending hit? Say someone is about to run a red light or stop sign, and you are already halfway through the intersection. Braking would just make matters worse depending on your position. Turning will probably not do you any good. Where will you turn to? Instead of hitting you on the side, you will turn to then possibly be hit on the front or rear? Punch the gas and get out of that other vehicle’s way! Let’s compare numbers of a few cars and sports cars to a few crossovers and SUVs. Cars: Nissan 370z 60–0 mph Braking: 103ft Skidpad: 1.00g 0–60: 4.6 seconds 2020 Camry 60–0 mph Braking: 118ft Skidpad: 0.80g 0–60: 7.3 seconds 2015 VW Golf GTI 60–0 mph Braking: 108ft Skidpad: 0.94g 0–60: 6.2 seconds 2019 VW Jetta GLI 60–0 mph Braking: 109ft Skidpad: 0.98g (manual transmission) 0–60: 5.8s seconds 2015 Subaru WRX STI 60–0 mph Braking: 106ft Skidpad: 0.97g 0–60: 4.6 seconds 2017 Audi A6 3.0 60–0 mph Braking: 109ft Skidpad: 0.93g 0–60: 4.7 seconds 2018 Honda Accord 2.0t 60–0 mph Braking: 116ft Skidpad: 0.88g 0–60: 6.2 seconds SUVs: Ford Escape 60–0 mph Braking: 116ft Skidpad: 0.84g 0–60: 7.3 seconds 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trail hawk 60–0 mph Braking: 139ft Skidpad: 0.76g 0–60: 7.2 seconds 2017 Honda CR-V 60–0 mph Braking: 116ft Skidpad: 0.82g 0–60: 7.5 seconds 2017 Nissan Armada 60–0 mph Braking: 128ft Skidpad: 0.59g 0–60: 7.0 seconds 2018 Ford Expedition 60–0 mph Braking: 129ft Skidpad: 0.76g 0–60: 6.2 seconds 2018 Tahoe RST 60–0 mph Braking: 133ft Skidpad: 0.75g 0–60: 5.7 seconds Sure, you have some smaller SUVs that have almost the same capabilities as a standard car while some smaller SUVs are far worse in some areas. Notice the larger the SUVs get, the longer they take to brake and the worse they are at maneuvering? Wonder how much safer are the more expensive sports cars? 911 GT2 RS 60–0 mph Braking: 87ft Skidpad: 1.17g 0–60: 2.7 seconds Corvette ZR1 60–0 mph Braking: 91ft Skidpad: 1.16g 0–60: 2.85 seconds Sure you can buy a premium sports SUV that retails (or used to) for over $100,000 that has near “affordable” sports car abilities but still can’t compare to the safety offered by sports cars in the same price range. 2015 BMW X5 M 60–0 mph Braking: 104ft Skidpad: 0.96g 0–60: 3.8 seconds Yes, there is data that shows more people survive in SUV crashes than in cars. The problem with this data is that it doesn’t show the number of people that were able to avoid an accident all together because of being in a car. Crash data is exactly just that. It is CRASH data. No one has yet created a “I avoided a close call accident today because of my better maneuvering car” report. In the end, you have to decide if you wish to try to be better at avoiding at an accident all together or knowing you prefer to be able to plow through an accident yet still gambling with the repercussions the accident will have on your body. Personally, I feel a lot safer knowing I will have better chances at avoiding an accident.
In my opinion this is a question from two children (or teens) who argue whose dad has a faster car. Let’s get some data. Toyota Tundra V8, ,Toyota Tundra - Wikipedia There are actually 2 Tundras V8: - 4.6 L V8 ,UR engine, 310 hp (231 kW) and 327 lb⋅ft (443 N⋅m) - 5.7 L V8 ,UR engine, 381 hp (284 kW) and 401 lb⋅ft (544 N⋅m) Since in the question is the data that that he speedometer is scaled to 180 km/h, it looks that the Tundra in the question is equipped with the first one, 4.6 L 310 HP engine. Nissan Infinity FX 35, ,Infiniti QX70 - Wikipedia I quote: FX35, built from 2009-2012, 3,498 cc (213.5 cu in) V6 303 hp (226 kW; 307 PS)@6800, 36.2 kg⋅m (355 N⋅m; 262 lbf⋅ft)@4800 - 0-60 mph (97 km/h): 6.1 seconds -0-100 mph (160 km/h): 15.7 - 1/4 mile: 14.9 seconds at 96.0 mph (154.5 km/h) - 300 ft (91 m) Skidpad: .82g - Top Speed: 155 mph (249 km/h) (governed limited) So the power is almost exactly the same, knowing that, you look at the cars. You probably know by now that the Infinity is faster because of less weight and drag, in any case and on any track. It has nothing to do with the speedometer, but what a car is built for. Toyota is a big pickup, made for hauling big trailers, the Nissan Infinity is a luxury SUV, each one is a heavyweight in his class. What is “a race” for you? This depends very much on the track. If “a race” for you is a drag-race, you could consider also those (in this order) among others: - Toyota Tundra 5,7-liter V8 - Infinity FX50 - BMW X5 50i - Porsche Cayenne Turbo S V8 But last, not least, all of those would be left in the dust by a SUV called Tesla Model X P100 D ,Tesla Model X - Wikipedia Quote: “The highest performance version of the model P100D goes from ,0 to 60 mph, (0 to 97 km/h) in 2.9 seconds and the 1⁄4 mile (400 meters) in 11.4 seconds, outperforming the fastest SUVs and most sports cars.” Comparing these cars on a race (like a Formula 1) track doesn’t make much sense, none of those was built for that. I bet Porsche would be the fastest since it has the strongest engine and probably the lowest center of gravity, but that is only a guess.
What do you mean by good? This question doesn't make much sense. Every car sold today (In the US at least) has good enough handling to drive safely. I am assuming you are talking about street cars. A skidpad test measures how quickly a car can drive on a flat circle. That's it. It doesn't measure every aspect of handling. It doesn't measure how quickly the car can transition from one direction to the other. Basically, it's a way of measuring how much mechanical grip the car will have in a single turn. A car that performs very well in a skidpad test may not do quite as well in a slalom, figure 8, or on a race track as another car. Cars are usually tested on the tires they are sent to the reviewer with. This could be summer tires for a sports car, general purpose all seasons for a family sedan, and perhaps a somewhat more rugged tire in an SUV. Hybrids often come with very low rolling resistance tires that could give you less cornering grip. Very cheap cars may simply come with very cheap tires. Tires are extremely important when it comes to how much grip a car has. You could put summer tires on a family sedan and suddenly see skidpad numbers that look closer to a sporty car. Adding some summer tires to a family sedan that manages .8Gs Beyond that, what is good (A subjective value statement) is dependent entirely upon a compromise that you make when purchasing a vehicle. This includes functionality, price, and what side of the compromise you desire to be on. A sports car that can pull .8 Gs is seriously below par, but that number would be downright amazing for a one ton pickup truck such as an F-350. So, understand that a skidpad measurement is just one metric to measure something significantly more complicated. Since a skidpad is most equivalent to a highway onramp, here's a rough seat of the pants idea. Note that a skidpad is usually a 300 foot diameter and is round, different corner radius can make significantly more or less G forces: <.7 G - Will easily keep up with traffic, but... "Are the tires squealing? It feels like we're going to roll over" ~.8 G - Proceeding through a sweeping corner at this speed will sometimes result in a ticket. It's pretty quick for normal driving, but isn't exactly fast. ~.9 G - Now you're scaring your passengers! A lot of people have likely never gone through an exit onramp around the maximum capabilities of cars that will do .9G on a skidpad. ~1G - WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE! For an economy car, over .8 Gs is reasonable, ditto a family sedan. .9 Gs is going to be in the range of performance oriented cars in general (Sporty economy cars will fit in here, or sometimes upgraded midsize sedans, sports sedans, and similar). 1G + is the realm of the insane, when it comes to road cars. A few cars, all MY 2015 and their 300 foot skidpad capabilities are as follows, in order, with some comments: F-350 - .67G - Heavy duty truck Mitsubishi Mirage - .74G City car Cadillac Escalade - .75G Luxury body on frame SUV Ford F-150 - .76G - Yep, it handles better than ,a, car. Hyundai Sonata - .78G Softer family car Toyota Corolla - .79G - Appliance-like economy car Honda CR-V - .8 G - Applicance like compact CUV Chrysler 300 - .81 G - Large RWD near-luxury car Toyota Prius - .81G - Economy hybrid BMW X5 - .82 G - Premium/luxury mid size CUV Mazda3 - .84 G - Sport-leaning economy car Honda CR-Z - .85G - Slightly sportier hybrid Ford Fusion (AWD) - .87 G - Sport leaning family car w/ AWD, not the base model! Mazda Miata - .9 G - Inexpensive sporty roadster Nissan 370Z - .9 G - V6 RWD sports coupe BMW 740i - .9G - V8 luxury sedan Volkswagen GTI - .91G - Hot hatch, sporty version of economy car Subaru WRX STI - .93G - AWD Sports sedan Ford Mustang GT - .95G - Muscle car Mercedes E63 AMG S Wagon - .97 G Luxury sports wagon BMW M3 - .99G Compact RWD Sports sedan Nissan GT-R - 1.02G - Expensive AWD sports sedan Porsche Cayman S - 1.03G - Mid engine RWD sports coupe Corvette Z06 - 1.19G - No. That's not a typo. The convertible managed 1.04G. But the tires on this are meant for the track and are nothing at all like the tires on the other cars. As you can see, taller cars will generally handle worse. Cars with larger and better tires will have more grip, as do lower centers of gravity. The chassis matters too - few people are going to confuse a Mazda3 and a Corolla, even if they have the same tires.
