The Cayman has yet to be rated by either crash-test agency, so we can’t rate it either. It is available with a handful of active-safety features and comes standard with a backup camera and front and rear parking sensors.

What’s New for 2018?

Neither NHTSA nor the IIHS have tested a 718 Cayman model yet, and Porsche hasn’t added or removed any of the car’s safety features for 2018.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the nonprofit, independent Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluate vehicles for crashworthiness in the United States. NHTSA assigns cars an overall rating out of five stars. IIHS uses a different set of tests, grades cars on a scale of Good to Poor, and awards the vehicles that perform best across its tests with Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick+ honors, the latter of which requires that the subject’s automated forward-collision-braking system performs well.
