I saw a compilation on YouTube yesterday of (I think) the US crash authority... they crashed a large number of popular cars corner on to a concrete wall and not one car fared well. Not even the Honda Jazz or one of the large Lexus models or a whole list of world manufacturer cars!
I suppose it's all down to the specifics of the crash and there's just too many factors. But it definitely reminded me that even a 2023, expensive five star car can still crumble like ash if hit a certain way!
Still mad at NCAP for its irresponsible use of 'zero stars'.. Zero would insinuate that this article be impossible and that the most minor of circumstances (much less than in the article) would result in a high likelihood of a fatality. Seems logical to me to reserve zero for that sort of a situation.
