[@12Achilleas]

Yes because it’s a body in frame brick that doesn’t absorb any energy because it doesn’t really have crumble zones ,and it also doesn’t have many safety electronics system like the defender ,but it is build tougher than the defender and I rather be in a wrangler if I was on an accident because it would just demolish the other vehicle and making the other vehicle absorbing all the energy through its crumble zones

[@kaguario]

@@12Achilleas that is not how crash physics works. But Jeep knows exactly their customers profile, and they play with their (your) beliefs. And it works.

[@theldaniel170]

@@12Achilleas That’s not how physics work son... Weight, mass and energy distribution is at play. The ladder frame of the wrangler wont crumple sure, but the high energy of the impact will just disperse somewhere else along the body and frame of the car (the passengers), and THAT’S what can kill you. Meanwhile cars with crumple zones will just absorb impacts and prevent harm or injury to the cabin by dispersing that high energy by CRUMPLING as much as possible. Wranglers weigh anywhere around 4000-4400 pounds, Defenders weigh around 4700-5000 pounds; the higher mass Defender will dismantle your feather-weight Wrangler and mangle you up without even flinching if both cars were to crash into each other. Not to mention the Jeep might (un)surprisingly roll over. Call ‘em what you want, but one thing Land Rovers are is hella safe.

[@12Achilleas]

@@theldaniel170 thanks for you comment sir , I kindly disagree thaw as a student that studies mathematics and physicals science , the in a head on crash between a 4 door jeep jl and a defender at the same speed the defender would have approximately 5% more kinetic energy than the Jeep ,which is certainly no big difference , the energy which will not be absorbed by the Jeep will also have to be absorb by the crumble zone of the other vehicle and the Jeep’s passengers ,also the Jeep jl frame sits very high and in a head on crash between two vehicles it might override the others vehcile crumble zones

It exceeds my expectations in aspects of kill capability towards smaller cars.

[@fenoldaston]

@@DashCamSerbia Well that's something that I predict may be an advantage for some. It'll be even easier to assist when NCAP will have introduce new test. Allegedly cars will be scored for protection of other vehicles. I can easily imagine tanks on wheels advertised as constructed with no compromise on passenger safety. Even now, when I buy a car I expect it to protect me the best it can and that's what I'm willing to pay for.

[@DashCamSerbia]

I was waiting for the results too. Need something steady to protect against way too many people texting while driving their massive trucks, suburbans, and other monsters on the road.

[@ericstruan3647]

The videos show impressive results: It’s a tank. However, a more careful reading of the report indicates an 85% rating for the frontal impacts - which might sound great, but is actually comparatively poor. Many vehicles have ratings in the high 90s. Why? Because it rated “marginal” when it came to knee and leg protection. Why? well maybe because there are no knee bags to protect against “femur rigid dashboard structure “. So, Land Rover, WHY didn’t you install knee airbags? Having just ordered this vehicle in part because it seemed and felt “tank like”, I am now rather pissed off to learn that in the unfortunate event I may have a “frontal impact” I will unlikely be walking away and instead have mangled legs. So tell us, Land Rover, why didn’t you figure this one out and install knee airbags?

[@arkos55]

Because they just aren’t as obsessed with safety as say Volvo is. They’re probably relying on the mass and stiffness of the vehicle more than clever engineering and targeted safety measures like knee bags. It also doesn’t deform as much as the Volvo’s and probably sends more energy to the passengers because of that. Still a very safe vehicle I imagine, but probably not as safe as a large Volvo per the ratings. A lot safer than an MG convertible though, or a mini, so all relative.

[@teddym2808]

It's so stupidly strong but to get 85% (vs something in the 90's like a Volvo) for adult occupants means some of the forces are being transferred to the passengers in a less than ideal fashion. Don't get me wrong, it's a safe SUV, but if you look at the detailed result it only has marginal thigh protection for driver and front passenger. Of course, it weighs over 2 tonnes so it's going to fare better against lighter vehicles but this is simulating a head on of a vehicle in the same weight class.
