If I lived in the City and didnt need to commute much, this would really be the perfect car.

Full size SUVs are best.

May as well get him a fricking motorcycle. He gets in a serious wreck in that POS and he's probably dead....

No. Trucks slide around too easy.
This. My first ride was a single cab Tacoma pre runner, the back end was way too light. Tires would spin when barely depressing the gas pedal from stop, if it was remotely wet.

A lot of them do have good crash ratings. But one downside is having a full sized SUV means he can pile as many as 6 or 7 other teens in there with him. That in and of itself leads to a lot of wrecks. It's best to limit a teen driver to no more than one or two passengers.

Key word there being "their". What do you expect them to say? They're trying to get you to buy their product.
I realize that and I know it hasnt really gone through proper testing yet.
But its not like its going to be a golf cart level of protection either.
