ANCAP 5 star safety rating
The BRZ has scored a five star rating. No surprise really. Shame to wreck such a nice car.

Subaru engineered the unibody, no surprises here. I'd be more surprised if it got a 4 star. Shocked to hear it got 3. But 5? That's a normal day for Subaru.

Good and valuable info.
Off to google to see how ANCAP differs from EuroNCAP and US NCAP. |
