Rear quarter deformation is worrying! I think that's a result of the body on frame construction.
....
The Prado/GX460 performed better.

the way physics works, when it hits a barrier like it that, it is like it is hitting same car from the other side. So heavy cars like LC200 have to be a LOT more safe to get the same rating as lighter ones. Basically it is two LC200's hitting each other head on.
