Both cars do remarkably well in the front-end collisions, particularly considering their size - which goes to show that it is definitely possible to make a very little car safe.

especially the nissan roox, which has such a little crumple zone. Impressive to say the least

I drove a brand new Nissan roox all around Tokyo last summer and I felt safe driving it. Even in congested Tokyo traffic. Total of 3 adults and a bunch of luggage trekking all around Mount Fuji area, the van had decent power up and down hills. We’ll be back in Japan for another 2 weeks soon and we’ll be renting another roox. ❤

I really wish they made more sub-compact hatchback and coupe cars in the USA, especially the fun ones with 5 or 6 speed manual, and a bit more power than 64hp as it is in JP thanks to gentleman's agreement, which is enough for their roads, but not for ours.

I wish we got Kei cars in the US, im sick of our hige unaffordable cars. If motorcycles are allowed, these should be.

Compact cars such as the Fit or Nissan Note are good. Kei cars are really bad for American roads. They don't go fast enough

They are really good now, not as in the old days where you had 0.75mm of sheet metal between your tonails and whatever you head on collided with. A friend of mine said "They should make the car body out of cardboard, then they just need to hose it away with water at the morgue" and it was kind of true....

Kei cars are surprisingly durable in crash tests compared to other western cars.
@dlmurray55Ай бұрын
Western cars also kill people more often because they're way too big, a normal car in America getting hit by a giant truck or SUV you can say goodbye to your health if you're in that small vehicle

Small cars such as these are a smaller target for other cars, and, they are obviously more maneuverable.

Good to know. My son just bought a brand new TAFT yesterday and has taken everyone for a drive into Tokyo today. It7s his first car so he's really excited .

Honda N Van smart driving technologies will auto correct steering when you stray from the lane you are driving, apply brakes when clearance are not ample enough while forward driving and its auto like tesla mode saves me twice from sustaining minor impact. Tks Honda for designing such wonderful system.❤

They aren’t safe but that doesn’t mean people shouldn’t be allowed to drive one. Corvettes are horrible in crashes yet they are allowed on the road.
@PlatinumNath3 ай бұрын
They're safe enough. Most people in America is just doctrined to believe bigger cars are safer, and not the quality of the build that dictates safety, which leads to imbalanced crash compatibility and increased pedestrian deaths and driving accidents

So, is the KEI safe or not?
@user-vd5td2tr8u7 ай бұрын
Safety is clearly inferior to regular cars. On January 19th of this year, a Kei car was involved in a rear-end collision between two trucks on a highway in Kobe, Japan, compressing the car to literally 30 centimeters and killing two people. We must not forget that light vehicles are originally intended to be driven relatively slowly in Japanese cities.

the A pillar is crushing @ 64km/h,40% deformable barrier which is worse than 2000s cars, and these tests are testing how rigid the chassis would be depending its weight if you crash even with a nissan versa at both 60km/h, it could lead to death it is not safe physically, but the scandals and japanese manufacturer's corruption made it much more dangerous.

Full frontal and side impact were 55 kmh, and offset frontal impact was 64 kmh.

You can literally see the speeds being written in the video as 50-60~kmh - daily driving speeds
