P.S.
Hmm...........from that list of SUVs (that are also sold here in the Philippines), it seems that the safest (according to them) would be the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Wow, that's cool

I test drove the newly-facelifted Grand Cherokee with 3.0 V6 Diesel Engine.

To sum it up: It's a superb American car..............with a voice recognition that has a British accent
Great post

Agree with all your points

What interesting about this test is that the XC90 is able to pass this test with flying colors. That thing is ANCIENT but has been receiving consistent safety updates. Hard to believe that car started it's design process in the late '90s lol.
