Mitsubishi Outlander vs Hyundai Tucson Crash test

2022 Hyundai Tucson vs Mitsubishi Outlander Crash test NCAP, Euroncap, ANCAP, IIHS,
Tested Model Hyundai TUCSON 1.6 T-GDI HEV GLS, LHD

Body Type - 5 door SUV

Year Of Publication 2021

Kerb Weight 1633kg

VIN From Which Rating Applies - all TUCSONs

Class Small Off-Road
The passenger compartment of the TUCSON remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy numbers showed good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Hyundai showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to the legs of occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Protection of the driver’s chest was marginal. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the TUCSON would be a moderately benign impact partner in a frontal collision. In the full-width rigid barrier test, good or adequate protection was provided to most critical body areas. However, driver chest protection was rated as marginal, based on dummy readings of compression. In the side barrier test, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate. In the more severe side pole impact, protection of all critical body areas was good and the car scored maximum points for this part of the assessment. The TUCSON has a centre airbag to mitigate occupant to occupant injuries in the event of a lateral collision. In Euro NCAP’s test, the airbag worked well, with good protection of the dummies’ heads. Limitation of the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the car in a side impact was rated as adequate. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated good protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats also indicated marginal whiplash protection. The TUCSON has, as standard, an advanced emergency call system which alerts the emergency services in the event of a crash. The car also applies the brakes after a collision to prevent secondary impacts.

In the both the frontal offset test and the side barrier impact, protection of all critical body areas was good or adequate for both child dummies. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. All of the child restraint types for which the TUCSON is designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the car. Good or adequate protection was provided to the head of a struck pedestrian over most of the bonnet surface, with some areas of poor protection on the stiff windscreen pillars. The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians’ legs at all test locations. However, protection of the pelvis was predominantly poor. The autonomous emergency braking system of the TUCSON detects vulnerable road users, as well as other vehicles. The system’s response to pedestrians was adequate and to cyclists was good.

TESTED MAKE / MODEL Mitsubishi Outlander
LS RHD
TESTED VEHICLE(S) BUILT 2021
TESTED BODY TYPE Medium SUV
TESTED VEHICLE ENGINE 2.5 litre petrol
RATING PUBLISHED January 2022

The passenger compartment of the Mitsubishi Outlander remained stable in the frontal offset (MPDB) test. Dummy readings indicated ADEQUATE protection for the driver’s chest and lower legs, and MARGINAL protection for the upper legs. Protection of the front passenger dummy’s upper legs was ADEQUATE with GOOD protection for all other critical body regions.
The front structure of the Mitsubishi Outlander presented a moderate risk to occupants of an oncoming vehicle in the MPDB test (which evaluates vehicle-to-vehicle compatibility), and a 1.75 point penalty was applied.
In the full width frontal test, protection of the driver dummy was GOOD for all critical body areas. Protection of the rear passenger head and chest was MARGINAL, while protection of the neck was ADEQUATE.
In the side impact and oblique pole tests, protection offered to all critical body regions was GOOD and the Mitsubishi Outlander scored maximum points in these tests.
The Mitsubishi Outlander is equipped with a centre airbag to protect against occupant-to-occupant interaction in side impacts, however it did not meet the ANCAP airbag coverage requirements and a 1 point penalty was applied.
Prevention of excursion (movement towards the other side of the vehicle) in the far side impact tests was assessed as GOOD for the vehicle-to-vehicle impact scenario and ACCEPTABLE for the vehicle-to-pole scenario.

What are people talking about? They both did excellent. Tucson got a five star rating. People look at amount of damage and think that determines the ratings. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[leifandersen]

The Outlander is bigger and has got another design and is more rugged than the Tucson..Mitsubishi has a longer history building SUVs than Hundai !

[keyner]

The Outlander has a better structure, as you can see on the side pole test.

[SiemensIQpro]

Really think Mitsubishi is safer although not bad hyundia.

[maico]

Both look safe. Mitsubishi a bit better?

[leksandrh.]

Ich werde mir Mitsubishi Outlander kaufen. Es ist besser.

[bp]

What if you make them crash with each other? Lol

[KnowTheNewOfficial]

Japanese brand always the best in the world, no doubt about that 👉

[Jilanisky]

still jappanese better than korean cartoon

[utpalsarkar]

Why there is no shock absorber in front of a car? Car manufacturer make car with plastic material in front.

[FeelFree]

The Mitsubishi Outlander doesn't display much numbers for the score for the test compare to Euro NCAP.

[sahithyababuk]

The authorities keep testing at 50 s 60s whereas in the reality vehicular accidents happen above 100

I have a 2022 Mitsubshi Outlander LE in Canada and i almost hit a pedestrian last August 2021. I went to the dealer and mention about it and the dealer told me that the pedestrian option is not feature on Outlander 2022 in Canada. Is that true? I kept a video from my dashcam. Please advise

[ronlheureux]

A bit of narration would have gone a long way, don’t ya think?

[DANNYUAUA]

Nice video for those willing to buy a crashed car at an insurance auction.

Никогда хендай за машину не считал, а теперь ещё раз убедился в этом.

You have a cartoon Tussan, not iron, a very bad car in terms of safety. There is no safety in
