When it comes to shopping for a car for a teen driver, safety should come first. Look up models of car that are within your budget, and then in that list, compare the standard safety features.
These can vary a lot from one model and brand to another, so pay close attention and get a feel for which features are common and which are rare. Then once you feel comfortable with the level of safety, you can move on to fuel efficiency, infotainment, and other types of features, Keep in mind that while the car is for your teen, it is possible that other members of the family will need to use it at various times, so something that works for everyone will help with that aspect of the car's joint family ownership.
