My old 2007 Aurion got 5 Stars back in 2007. It would be lucky to get 3 now....
I see what you mean but I guess the goalpost is really “how safe is this vehicle compared to other new vehicles I could buy right now”. But yeah, in a way it’d be better to just keep add a star to the system every year or two so that vehicles of different ages can be compared.
