In our latest plug-in hybrid SUV test the all-new Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid didn't manage the moose test. Much worse result than the ordinary RAV4 Hybrid. You can read about the complete issue at https://teknikensvarld.se/bil/toyota/rav4/toyota-rav4-plug-in-hybrid-performs-dangerously-in-the-moose-test/
The cars are always tested with original (by manufacturer) mounted tires and the tire pressure is according to the manufacturer's recommended numbers (for maximum load). If a car has different drive or ride height modes the car is always tested in the "normal mode".
