Here is a link to the first time this was posted 2 months ago.
https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=183231
That thread has the link to the results and the original video which is much better quality than the ripped off copy on U t00b.

If you think this test was anything but outstanding, you really need to google.video the "Landwind" crash test Trust me, it's great.

Well they evidently consistently suck at safety, check out this Chinese "Brilliance" (not)

Ouch at least the 08 looks safe, as for the 06 crash test it's U-G-L-Y

except for the part where the passenger compartment / survival space remains completely intact. which is actually the only thing that matters. both xb's performed brilliantly in all frontal crash tests. the side impacts aren't all that different, either...remember, this is the government's side-impact test, not the IIHS' Doomsday-Scenario Side Impact hit-by-wrecking-ball test. Though I'm curious to see how that one went.

ROFLMAO. oh lawd but they suck so HILARIOUSLY :D the way i see it, the problems of overpopulation and skyrocketing car/emissions numbers in china are eventually going to solve one another.

this is exactly what i'm talking about when i say both xb's performed outstandingly. this isn't sufficient example of what you DON'T want to happen?
