Volkswagen GOLF 8 Crash Test

/ @youcartv The VW Golf has been a benchmark of compact cars since its debut 45 years ago. Previous versions tested by Euro NCAP have rated well against the requirements at the time and the new Golf mk8 again has achieved the five full stars thanks to excellent crashworthiness and standard fit of number of assist systems. The 2020-2021 Golf is also the first ever Volkswagen to make use of V2X connectivity (vehicle to vehicle, vehicle to infrastructure) to enable advance hazard warnings, an important new technology that will be soon be included in Euro NCAP’s rating.

Rear door opened during side impact crash test !!! So Volvo is loosing its big lead in safety??? Show me a new Volvo with opened doors after crash test. I do not think so. Same happened with the new VW Sharan. Do not get me wrong this was not such a bad crash test, but I hate people bashing down Volvo and saying that it has lost its safety. Because they were making cars safe before there were any rules to that, it is the fundamental of Volvo, and every other manufacturer (except Saab) started making cars safe because they had to, because of the rules.

Im not sure that the door opening in an impact is overly safe, what about a secondary hit on that side right where ur rear passenger/childseat would be?

[@mabrokenleg2388]

It doesn’t matter, a the crash structure is already compromised. Any further hit will directly transfer to the passengers. If the door opens that at least is a good sign of rigidity of the chassis. Some american manufacturers seem to use noodles as metal, you won‘t be able to get out of the car after a crash. That won’t be a problem here at least. I also believe this to be an anomaly. Test it 5 times, get 3 different results...

[@eldodos83]

@@mabrokenleg2388 id rather have a crumpled door in front of me in an impact than it wide open to whatever is coming at me next though i get what ur saying on it maybe being an anomaly. Something in the structure either flexed too much and sprung the door or the latch itself failed there.

[@forgepopoff]

How can u get 5 starts when the door opens up? If this had been an Italien or French car - they would have been all over the place. Money rules the results!

[@bassterminator3608]

And on top of that the seats have much lateral support, in contrast to french or italian cars, where you're basically sitting on something more a plank than a seat. So this is how to get 5 stars, bec. the door keeps being solid and nearly undeformed. In case of a second inpact, the door would just be pressed into its frame, and there you go again. If the door wouldn't be torn out of its frame, the deformation would spread to the entire chassis, and that would be the worst scenario imagineable. This way the door have enough space for its deformation, and the chassis keeps being a chassis, doing what it does - protect the cabin, and not get ripped in two parts, like your hallowed french or italian car, that couldNt even turn a corner without destructing itself. Okay, maybe it ain't that worse, but an opened door isn't as critical as you may think. As long as it still exists and not get torn out of its hings, it's fine.

[@paradyze5013]

@@bassterminator3608 the problem is that when the door is open, the passengers arm could end up getting ripped because another car is crashing into the golf while his arm is between the frame and the door. that is not supposed to happen

The dark side of such tests is that they are vehicles "prepared" by the manufacturers aiming at the crash test. In my country they did a crash test with a VW Up year 2013, and it only started to be manufactured in the country in 2014. VW made a splash in its marketing. Those who finance these entities are the manufacturers themselves. Who pays more, cries less!
