Yaris Cross earns only two stars in the crash test, but once again Latin NCAP applied its 'dubious' criteria
Toyota do Brasil is digging its ground to find out where the donkey skull that is so unlucky at the launch of its Yaris Cross is buried. The compact SUV simply forced the company’s parent company to apologize to the Japanese government.

That’s because the model was the target of passion with the aim of circumventing the crash tests necessary for homologation there in Japan. Meanwhile, here in Brazil, the factory that was going to produce its engines was knocked down by a windstorm.
And now that the car was launched two years late, that Uruguayan entity, Latin NCAP, gave only two stars in the crash tests with the Yaris Cross. But in this case it wasn’t bad luck, it was Latin NCAP with its blunders and more than dubious and less reliable criteria, because the model tested was not produced in Brazil, but imported from Indonesia.
