Most small SUVs flunked frontal crash tests. But oddly, they're as safe as before due to the test prioritizing keeping back-seat passengers safe.

DETROIT — Most small SUVs flunked the latest frontal crash tests done by the insurance industry, but oddly enough, they're just as safe as they were before.

The remainder, the Buick Encore, Chevrolet Equinox, Honda CR-V and HR-V, Hyundai Tucson, Jeep Compass, Jeep Renegade, Mazda CX-5 and Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross got the bottom rating of"poor." The institute has a history of changing its widely watched tests in an effort to get automakers to make safety improvements, and Harkey says they normally respond to the changes.

Some automakers already have put more sophisticated belts in their back seats, something that can be done without a big model update, Harkey said."The industry has always been good about responding to tests that we have introduced," he said."We expect they will do so in this case, and we expect they will be able to do so quickly."

In the original moderate overlap test, a vehicle travels at 40 mph toward an aluminum barrier. About 40% of the vehicle's width hits the barrier on the driver's side.
