Standards of.. Quality? Safety? Significantly lower? Probably not. I bet in some ways higher, other ways lower. But different for sure. Problem is probably the landscape of huge cars proliferating in the US vs smaller cars other places. But safety is not inherently worse in lower speed collisions [1]: "Conclusions: Although we are generally concerned that drivers of small vehicles suffer more severe injuries, our results suggest that, for real-world accidents, K-cars provide similar safety for drivers involved in frontal collisions as standard vehicles in low delta V impact conditions."
