According to IIHS the t3 is impressively better than the initial estimations after the NHTSA's approval tests for import. To be be more accurate, I can say that IIHS recognizes the t3 as the safest, with the lower death rate, car of it's era! And all these for the 2wd edition. The 4wd, (Syncro), edition is even much more better because of structural reinforcements and much better active safety. Some links to check the previously mentioned: Passive safety: www.vwsyncro.eu/p/blog-page_18.html Active safety: www.vwsyncro.eu/p/blog-page_2.html 4wd cars are safer: www.vwsyncro.eu/p/article-excerpt.html This is the Syncro Heresy: vwsyncro.eu

VW's van here shows basically no deformation . I was an investigating officer at a crash of this van into the side of a city bus where the driver died. The van showed very little deformation and stood up very well except..... the door came open and the stupid driver wasn't using the seatbelt. He fell outside and the bus ran over his head. These Germans don't lie. I've done many collision investigations and german cars come out on top. Mercedes-Benz cars crash like Tiger tanks.

Burt Hulbert its because they put more into there design then the Japanese models did, even some of the American models of the era. Volkswagen and Volvos were seen as the standard of what automakers strived to be in terms of safety. However with that safety there was a cost factor, and many car manufactures just chose to make a cheaper inferior product instead. Also the price of safety in the end is paid for by the consumer. If the consumer isnt as worried about their personal safety then they aren't going to be paying for it. They'll buy the cheaper vehicle, every time! ! ! Safety in the industry is largely determined on supply and demand. Still is. Gocernment regulatory agency's can try to promote safety but it will always fall back on the consumer in the end.

What's even more disturbing is of the Japanese vans, the Mitsubishi was one of the oldest models tested and was even then thought to be not as safe as it's Japanese rivals. It's also interesting to see how many vans did not have laminated windscreens, apart from the VW I don't think any of the others did.

The VW definitely did the best here, but it had one major flaw: it had a windshield designed to fly out. No cars on the market in 1984 still had this feature; yes it happened from time to time in crash tests where the occupant compartment was severely compromised, but not where it had no or minor damage. In the USA, Federal standard required windshields to stay in place on passenger cars starting on January 1, 1970. Vans got an exemption to about 1991 I think. In Europe, pop-out windshields generally disappeared before 1980. Other than that, it would have performed about like an average 1980s car in a frontal crash, while the rest of the vans would have done far worse. VW definitely did a great job on the structural design for a van with very little front crush space. However, the next generation Japanese vans that started coming out around 1986 beat even the VW T3 on safety. The T3 failed a NHTSA full-front crash test (other full-size van designs from its era did much worse, though). The Mitsubishi Van and Nissan Vanette passed this test in 1988-1989.

@MaartenvanHeek
@MaartenvanHeek 6 жыл бұрын
I was thinking the same. Also note how the speeds are not exactly identical. They also made the mistake equating a 35 kph frontal offset to a stationary block with a 50-55 kph full frontal crash. Still scary how poorly the Japanese performed at this low speed.

The Vanagon didn't need to have a cherry-picked test, as they are that safe. I own a 91 Vanagon and a 1978 Ford Econoline, and the Vanagon is safer, but the Ford is a better work van. Note that American Econolines from 1975 to 1991 crash about the same, as they have the same frame and body...

Chris Freemesser VW would never cheat to make their car look good? O .....Yes.....actually that's exactly what VW do. 22mph test is totally meaningless and VW knew that but also knew it would not pass at any greater speed. Once a cheat always a cheat. The other vans however are just criminal .

This was 1984, no vehicles could pass a 40 mph offset crash test then. I believe Mercedes was designing for offset crashes at 50 kph (31 mph) then, they were ahead of the curve. Volkswagen was able to make a flat nose van perform as well as a typical car of the era (with a front end). In a 40 mph offset, the dummy in any of the vans, including the Vanagon, would be fatally injured, as would the vast majority of the dummies in cars of the era. The standard crash test carmakers tried to pass in 1984 was a 35 mph full frontal, offset crash tests weren’t done yet. November 6, 2019 5:18 am

I'm inclined to give VW a pass on the speed thing. The beginning of the video stated, paraphrasing, that the speed and set-up used here was applicable to about 90% of the wrecks these types of vans were involved in. That seems reasonable to me considering that the life of one of these vans would likely consist of deliveries, hauling tradies' tools, shuttles, etc in an urban environment. Anecdotally, I don't drive that much faster downtown either.

+HELLENIC VANAGON That is totally normal strength for a van on that site. Japanese newly designed vans too from the 90's are very strong, like the mitsubishi delica L400. ;) But the T3 was clearly ahead in safety in 80's. But in mechanical strength it was then behind the Japanese, and I am afraid still is. If they could get Germans to design the safety and japanese the reliability & serviceability, italians the usability and you would get an ultimate van. :)

As much as I like forward control vans, I drove a Mitsubishi Delica van back in the 90s, neither the VW Transporter, nor the Mitsubishi look like it would provide much protection in a collision above 10 mph.

So if you crash at 22mph you will be OK in the VW. OK I will only drive it in 30 mph limits. This is a case of a manufacturer designing a test that they know their van will pass. Good luck in a 50 mph collision. Of course VW have a track record of honest testing?

@ Bacon Cat at 0:19 there is a Mitsubishi L300 in the picture and a green 1303 on the lane next to it ... the L300 by the way had engine and gear-box underneath the front seat row, and also existed in 4x4 version (very popular as a camper)

Yea, but the Japanese found the solution: put the crumple zone between the driver seat and steering wheel... I prefer My T3 hard, strong and with my feet over other peoples hoods, some Swedes tested the T3 head on against a Volvo to prove that the Volvo was really safe. The Van hit and got up on the Volvo's hood and the bumper smashed trough the front windshield. So its relatively safe to crash into sedans and such small cars, just not other T3's or hard walls or something..

VW little damage, cheap to repair? That's good. The drivers family can use the savings to bury him or her because they died from the excessive G-Forces generated by a lack of a energy absorption from having no crumple zone.
