The Brilliance BS4 was given a bad crash test result when it was tested by ADAC in Germany a while back, it was tested in Spain again and received 3 stars. Crash tests arent always conclusive, they only test front, front offset and side impact (most of the time) but they dont account for real life crash tests such as the below BS4.

The BS4 driver was on the empty highway to Harbin cruising at 60mph, the car slipped on the wet road (it was a dry day, but the previous night it rained) the car went through the barrier, flying 150m down into a ditch, rolled two times, hit a pile of dirt, span 360 degrees and then landed again.

Pictures here - the alloy wheels don't look very strong
