The exact reason for the crash is not known yet. In any case, the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) feature of the ADAS package of the SUV kicked in and was able to slow down the vehicle considerably before the impact. Note that because the speed was so high, the ADAS was not able to bring it to a complete stop. But that is why you must never drive above the speed limit. Still, the AEB feature made that crucial difference that led to minimizing damage.
