The newly released Mitsubishi Express van model has become the first vehicle to ever receive a zero-star rating.
The rating is from Australasia's independent car safety voice, ANCAP Safety.
In ANCAP Safety's car crash test video, you watch the Mitsubishi Express van obliterated and smashed from literally all angles.
The biggest negative points were for the van's lack of modern safety systems.
That ultimately gave it a score of only seven percent on safety assistance features.
It's painful yet fascinating video to watch.
There are quite a few moments that'll make you wince with imaginary pain.
