The celerio scores perfect sa ancap for side impact. Sa frontal offset, xv is 7.6% better.

    After warranty, you can have maintenance done by Fusion R ... There's also 2211 Shop ...

    So many scenarios ... Wayward bus, fully loaded truck losing brake, falling posts / trees ...

    agree bro. the nature of accident that you could be the safest of drivers and it could still too easily happen to you. so that being said every added layer of protection is welcome too.

    I wonder kasama ba sa star rating yung ganitong freak accidents? Also, i wonder how your odds for survival would improve if you were in an xv vs a celerio if suddenly a loaded cement truck happens to tip over and land on top of you. 1%? 2%? Instead of a quick death, gulay na lang?

    If that type of logic makes any sense at all ... Most people would be driving Toyota Wigos or Suzuki Celerios ... Sometimes 1-2% margin of error makes a world of difference ... But there's much more than 1-2% difference between the safety of a Subaru XV and a Suzuki Celerio ...

    I dont think kasama.
    So every mm of added sheet metal on the car helps to at least minimize the risk of this freak accident.
