What are some of the safest cars on the road?

I’m starting to research different cars because I need to get a new one somewhat soon. I know I want a used car that has low mileage and is in good shape. Car safety is also really important. Can you recommend some websites that are good for overall car research and car listings? Thanks!
I have a 1990 Volvo wagon now and would like something similar to that, but newer and maybe not another Volvo since they are expensive to fix and from what I’ve heard the newer ones aren’t as good as the old ones.

Subarus are 4 and 5 star on all six sides. and side curtain airbags are standard from the late 90s on I think…quite safe. they use an integrated roll cage.
