This body judges the safety of cars in the event of d’accident according to very specific criteria and gives its final score in the form of stars.

were noted during the frontal impacts as well as a possible “Partial ejection” through the loading door during side crashes.

In the case of this utility, it is the driving aids, or rather the total absence of these, which justifies this score. In this area, the Mitsubishi obtained only 7 small points out of 100! At the same time, it’s hard to do better when you’re not even equipped with seat belt reminders …
