Hyundai’s updated Tucson SUV had scored the maximum five-star safety rating from Australia’s ANCAP organisation – but with a twist.
The five-star rating applies to Tucsons made after 17 November 2015 in South Korea or after 16 December 2015 in the Czech Republic.
ANCAP says Hyundai Tuscons made before those dates were not fitted with some design and production features which are necessary to achieve the five-star ranking.
