Its $8,000 sedan grabbed all five stars in the Global NCAP crash test, proving an econobox is not always a death trap. In a separate crash test organized by Latin NCAP, things didn’t go well for this Citroën Aircross. The small SUV priced at the equivalent of $20,000 received a disappointing zero-star rating.
