Are European crash standards typically less stringent?

Glad to see they doubled the hight/protection of the plastic stone chip cover just behind the front wheels- now held with 3 rivets and it looks like these models have also been fitted with the plastic wheel well liners front and rear. I was starting to worry about this 'cause we can have some pretty gritty and salty winters in Toronto!

why? They've said from the beginning that this car isn't about fast lap times or big horse power, but that it was all about Balance so it's 0-100km time is "low" I guarantee you when driven it will feel properly planted and consistent rather than all over the place like some cars are |

Peel off the Scion badges, glue on some Toyota ones, always refer to it as the '86, and get it serviced at a joint Toyota/Scion dealership where you can wait with all the Camry and Prius owners.
