One of the safety features that Fiat also tests in the ESV 1500, is the use of airbags, among other restraint systems. The conclusion is that at that time, there is no satisfactory restraint system for speeds of 50 mph (80 km/h) for a car of this size, including airbags. [5] In total, thirteen ESV 1500 prototypes are built. [8] [9]
A crash test by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety shows the damage to a compact Ford Focus struck by a Ford Explorer SUV Side impact NCAP test of a 2007 Saturn Outlook. This NHTSA collision test shows what happens when a Volkswagen New Beetle slides sideways into a utility pole or a tree.
In late 2021, IIHS used its new side-impact crash test on a batch of 20 small SUVs.Of those tested, only one, the Mazda CX-5, scored a Good rating. The seven sedans and wagons tested with the new ...
The severity of injury depends on the presence of crash-protective roadsides and the speed of impact. [50] In most of western Europe over 3,5 tonnes HGV have a speed limited from 80 km/h or 90 km/h, except in Great-Britain and Northern Ireland [ 51 ] and Italy, Romania and Bulgaria which have HGV speed limit up to 110 km/h.
