NHTSA NCAP only do rating by crashing 100% of the front part of the car.... where many cars can pass with 4-5 stars safety because the impact were spread fully to the whole front part..... they should test the car in EURO NCAP which only crash 40% of the front part of the car.... which is much more risky for people inside the car because the impact were absorb by only 40% of the front part.... just like naza ria / kia carnival also scored 5 stars safety in NHTSA NCAP... but only get 2 stars only in EURO NCAP.... (is quite horrible for a family car as the driver really hurts) go google and type euro ncap and you will got the website looks just the same as the previous one…. disappointing…. the safety part…

It got VGT turbo for a 2.2L diesel engine. But in Malaysian Santa Fe the diesel engine output is just 150ps at 4000rpm wif massive 335.Nm 1800-2500rpm. That very good for a 2.2L compare to the 2.5L above. Somemore Santa Fe got 7 seater and 5-speed auto for the diesel model. Paul, i think ront car is from Hyundai Santa Fe if i not mistaken.
