I survived a freak crash in a Subaru outback, both sides of car were completely crushed , 4 wheels and axles crushed due to being catapulted sideways. No air bags deployed , no damage to cabin whatsoever. My wife and I walked away without a scratch. Incidentally , despite both sides bring crushed, doors on both passenger and driver sides opened without a problem. Did I mention all the safety features mentioned in the article are included standard all for 35K. The car was totaled but I went right out and bought another .

When you're paid by a car manufacturer, you tend to "forget" to include the competition which is much better than your product you review.

I'm confused @1:57 you're reviewing the Aviator but the vehicle is marked 2020 Ford Explorer - are these vehicles exactly the same?

I was involved in a high speed crash with multiple cars, unfortunately 2 people died and others with life threatening injuries. I was in a 2020 Lexus RX 350 my impact speed was 110 kph, my SUV had the most impact of all and the most damage I walked away with a blood nose, sore ribs and slight concussion my passengers were taken to hospital for medical check up but know one had any serious injuries and didn't require to stay, 7 other people were taken away in Ambulances. 3 SUV'S 3 sedans and a van. I'll pick Lexus thanks.

The SUV-technology is utter nonsense, a vehicle needs to be long, NOT tall, to achieve more safety! The SUVs with their higher centre of gravity, greater wind resistance and weight, go against all basic knowledge that Newton already showed several hundred years ago! Consumer demand is a prime example of total ignorance regarding the most basic things in the 21st century!
