The Toyota Sienna ranks first in this comparison, followed by the Kia Carnival, Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Odyssey and Chrysler Voyager. This is an editorial ranking based on published Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) category grades—not an overall ranking issued by IIHS. It gives particular weight to crashworthiness, including the updated moderate-overlap test, which evaluates protection for rear-seat occupants.
The detailed ratings cited here come from different model years, so they are not a same-year head-to-head test. IIHS’s current minivan class summary lists the 2026 Sienna, 2027 Odyssey, 2026 Voyager, 2027 Pacifica and 2026 Carnival; the detailed pages used below cover the 2026 Sienna and 2025 Odyssey, Pacifica and Carnival.

How this IIHS minivan ranking works
IIHS reports category grades rather than one shared overall safety score in the evidence used for this comparison. The crashworthiness categories are small overlap, updated moderate overlap and updated side. The comparison also considers headlights and pedestrian prevention, with seat-belt reminders and LATCH ease of use as supporting family-use details. Grades such as Good, Acceptable, Marginal and Poor are reported as categories; they are not converted here into a numerical score.

The order between the Carnival and Pacifica is a close editorial call: both have Marginal updated moderate-overlap and Acceptable updated side grades. Their order is not a measured difference or an IIHS ranking.

These results put it close to the Carnival on crashworthiness; the supporting grades and editorial tie-break place it third.

5. Chrysler Voyager: missing results are unknown, not failures
Current class-summary model: 2026. IIHS lists Good for small overlap, Acceptable for side and Poor for headlights. The updated moderate-overlap test and pedestrian prevention are not tested in the class summary. An untested category is not a Poor grade and does not establish that the Voyager performs like another minivan with a published result. It ranks last here because the updated moderate-overlap protection is unknown and its headlights are rated Poor. IIHS minivan class summary.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.Why the updated moderate-overlap test matters to families
IIHS introduced its updated moderate-overlap test after research indicated that, in newer vehicles, belted second-row occupants face a higher risk of fatal injury than front-row occupants. IIHS attributes the gap to improvements in front-seat airbags and restraints that are rarely available in the rear. The test rating does not apply to children properly secured in child safety seats, so a vehicle-level rear-seat result should not be read as a measure of child-seat crash performance. IIHS explanation of the updated moderate-overlap test.

What to check when comparing the ratings
- Check the model year. The detailed pages cited here do not all cover the current model year shown in IIHS’s class summary.
- Separate crashworthiness from other results. Small overlap, updated moderate overlap and updated side are distinct crashworthiness categories; headlights and pedestrian prevention assess other aspects of safety.
- Do not treat missing tests as grades. The Voyager’s untested moderate-overlap and pedestrian-prevention categories cannot be compared as if they were Poor.
- Use seat-belt reminders and LATCH ease as supporting information. They help describe family-use features but do not replace crash-test results.
