E001 ANCAP Safety Insights Toyota, Kia, and Suzuki

Under the Bonnet: An Aussie Car Podcast

In this episode of Under the Bonnet: An Aussie Car Podcast, Robert discusses the latest ANCAP safety testing results, specifically addressing how the Toyota LandCruiser Prado, the Kia EV5, and the Suzuki Swift performed. Both the Toyota LandCruiser Prado and the Kia EV5 scored an impressive five-star rating, with the LandCruiser Prado performing particularly well in the areas of Adult and Child Occupant Protection, Vulnerable Road User Protection, and Safety Assist. Despite a few shortcomings, the Kia EV5 also demonstrated notable strengths in its safety tests. However, the Suzuki Swift received a disappointing one-star rating due to concerns raised by additional tests run on local vehicles that revealed significant differences in safety credentials compared to their European counterparts. Robert reinforces the importance of checking ANCAP safety ratings before purchasing a new vehicle.
