The IIHS safety ratings came out for the new side crash test in the small SUV class. I don't know why but they only tested the 2021 Tucson and that did not fair well. To be fair, a lot of others also did poorly. The CX-5 was the only vehicle that obtained an overall "Good" rating. I wonder when they'll get around to testing the 2022 models.

Yes, is always good when they raise the bar. Now the manufactures have a couple of years to improve things before the new test comes into effect.
