    EuroNCAP tested 3 pickups, the Navara, D-max and L200(Strada/Triton), these are the results.

    Wow may nakakakuha pa pala ng 1-star frontal crash rating ngayon!
    Completely unacceptable crash performance from nissan and isuzu there.

    Mitsubishi = safest for adult and child occupants

    Navara = safest for child occupants and pedestrians

    So between the two, go with Strada GLS Sports. Better design, powerful engine, better ride, better looks, and more safe. Just read the Strada thread for owner's feedback.

    What more, you can become a member of the club. hihihihi.

    EuroNCAP apparently demanded that Navarra be recalled. Not sure about DMAX/Rodeo.

    Sayang nga, ganda sana ng tindig at porma ng Navarra. It's the only other pick-up that can measure up to Strada Triton. I am sure magiging mabenta yun dito because not a lot knows about crash tests and safety (nor care about them). Often, for ordinary Filipinos, buying a car is all about looks and brand.

    So, for now Strada na

    Disappointing, I actually liked the styling of the new Frontier Navara. but I can't believe a modern pickup can get a crash rating that low.
    The (L200)Strada looks ok, although I feel that the overly-rounded styling went a bit too far.

    About the Navara safety...
    The Nissan Navara was the worst-performing in the NCAP tests, receiving just one star, with a strikethrough. It did merit three stars for child protection and two for pedestrian protection. Its poor performance was partly down to the delayed deployment of the airbags.
    I wonder if they use the same airbags for the Navara sold here...

    It's not just the airbag. The thing that worries me more is the footwell deformation.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
