Top 5 Safest Cars for Children Based on ASEAN NCAP Ratings

If there’s one thing Filipinos are known for, it's how much we value family over everything else. That value extends to our preference in cars, and so naturally, one of our top-most priorities when car-shopping is how well a vehicle can protect its child occupants in the event of a crash. With advanced protective technology more easily available and affordable, it's safe to say--no pun intended--that cars today are safer than ever before for our beloved little ones.
