[@ambercollier7337]

Thank you to everyone who puts their time and energy into these crash test so us consumers know what is safe and not as safe. I appreciate all your time and efforts.

[@juinorgaming3417]

Agreed!

[@rmp5s]

Gotta say, it really is amazing how safe cars are these days. Absolutely amazing.

[@Miked1332]

Absolutely. To see a mini van actually score high marks really says a lot. 5-10+ years ago, a mini van was a death trap. Lol

[@rmp5s]

@@Miked1332 Yea man. Everything has come so far. Had a dude in a newer Mustang t-bone a big ass Suburban-ish SUV by my house 5-ish years ago at 55mph... After that, I had a dude try to beat a yellow in front of me in a newer little Cadillac...hit him basically head on. He wasn't even CLOSE to making it. I was in an older 90-something GT I bought at auction (there are videos on my channel about it if you're into that kind of thing. Search "auction car rehab".) and, despite wearing a seatbelt and going much slower, I smashed the top of my head off the A-pillar. 8 staples, and a few weeks of weirdness later and I was alright. (Shit gets real interesting when you hit your head, man...lol) Dude in the 2016-ish Mustang? Bruise on the arm. Hitting a massive SUV. At 50-ish. Anecdotal af, but everything really has come SO far. Want further proof? Check out the "old Malibu vs new Malibu" video on KZbin...lol

[@Miked1332]

@@rmp5s oh I 100% believe that. My wife got hit head on by a semi truck on the highway at full speed (60 mph) in her 2012 Ford Escape and did get injured, but walked away with cuts and bruises. Given it was a lot of luck, since if there had been a passenger, they’d be dead. But she walked away. Very scary. But if she had been in like a 1990 Pontiac or something, there would’ve been nothing left of that car. I’m very grateful for the advancements in safety features in cars. I think between 2009 and 2015 they have made a HUGE step forward in safety features. I’m also grateful for those companies that have made incredible improvements in safety and decided to NOT patent the technology and let the rest of the world copy the features to make all cars more safe. Volvo with seat belts and crash avoidance systems, Porsche with airbags and Fiat (and kinda Mercedes) with ABS.

[@squidiskool]

2:05 lol the vw logo flies out.

[@TD_TD-TD_TD]

Ok I know that the RAM did good in these tests, but the fact that the bed alone was enough to deform the C-Pillar and intrude into the passenger cell is frightening. If the wight of the bed alone can do that amount of damage, I don’t even want to know the damage that could be caused if it were hit by a car at the rear!

[@priyanshu1265]

Man i was thinking something similar just look at that 🙍‍♂️

[@MrMrremmington]

Pick up trucks are doing poorly for years particularly the extended cabin. Also consider if you were carrying a load in the back that’s all gonna crash into the back seat passengers. When you take the back bed off a pick up truck you can see it’s just a simple frame carrying a big passenger box sitting on top of the frame it’s not a safe design. A couple years back, not many, GM had to redesign it’s extended cab pick up mid year because it crumpled so much in the passenger compartment during off set frontal crash testing. Today pick up trucks are enormous and cause devastating damage to small compact passenger cars. Most topic safety pick luxury cars from years prior now fail side impact crash tests. Large SUVs and pick ups are higher so they’ve adapted the test to reflect raising impact hight. Consequently deadly intrusion into the best built luxury cars occurs.

[@mcnuggetapple]

The bed would crumple just like the front would, it wouldn’t cause anymore damage

[@physic3524]

@TD_TD-TD_TD or god forbid, if the RAM was carrying a load in the bed...

[@dillerino4568]

I couldn't imagine doing all that hard work to get those cars ready and know its gonna get wreaked immediately once you're done 💀

[@SuperArmus]

Props to the people involved in designing and tested these cars. That's a lot of work to keep people safe.

[@kirkh666joejoe]

Volvo has always been, and still is the king of safety! What matters is real world safety too not just IIHS tests...

[@Spoolingturbski]

Correct. Volvo has the largest real life safety center in the world. They don’t just build cars to pass tests. They build them for real life accidents.

[@thffkfltm]

Thanks to all engineers and technicians.

[@chang-kp9sp]

Volvo recharge c40 is impressive safety. I would buy Volvo instead of Model y if they accommodate bigger battery pack.

[@zeusgaming3337]

Headlights have become wayyyy to bright on new cars. Even on my 2020 Ford Fusion sedan I get flashed all the time and every new car seems to have overly bright lights.

[@barbz_zayne]

It’s not that they’re too bright, they just have too much glare..

[@cassinihuygens]

It’s about angle and glare not brightness. Most high end cars have adaptive headlights that reduce glare on vehicles ahead.

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

Some of the new Ford trucks with those stacked headlights are ridiculous.

[@justincordero1165]

Same I used to be a sports car guy but I’ve grown outta that

[@1975reispedro1]

I understand that this testing is expensive but shouldn't they use two cars one against each other in front collision back side and rollover and excessive speed? I believe that data would be more accurate and useful... After all what's the percentage of collisions made in real life against walls? meaning, surface that don't move at all isn't that much or is it? Never saw a dummy with dead injuries... on the outside its another issue

[@TRX25EX]

It's never a fair test because each car you hit different in weight in size in shape...... But concrete wall is kinda worst case scenario for the cars so it's best testing for maximum safety

[@LudwigSC93]

@@TRX25EX exactly.

[@dat1gamer935]

The vehicle they use to crash into the car simulates a modern day SUV

[@BoaDeLaBlu]

Energy from collision will always be matched no matter the circumstances only difference is the results in damage, but as far as the energy that both objects collide together with even one another out

[@TD_TD-TD_TD]

Yes but it’s the same as running into a flat wall, if they use two of the same cars both traveling at the same speed, it’s the same as running into a flat wall, the forces are the same

[@24_Rav4]

Never thought a Hyundai truck would actually be safe wow

[@cazarilolsen4630]

Do we know if the electric vehicles were tested with or without their batteries?

[@chilongfezy]

yeah same question 🤓

[@justwrite7yearsago324]

With batteries

[@mikuelable]

Why would they take out the battery ......that's like taking out a engine

[@tewbears]

Defiantly with. These tests are suppose to demonstrate real world scenarios. Taking out the battery would make the car thousand pounds or so lighter which would not give an accurate test.

[@cassinihuygens]

Why would you test without the battery….

[@andrewchuckstar5238]

With full EV drive-trains coming market will these tests have the vehicle systems turned on? it s one thing to test a standard petrol vehicle but with batteries involved how do these systems respond to impacts?

[@NoName-md5zb]

By burning 😀

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

Most EVs weigh ungodly amounts because of the weight of the batteries. So, when they impact a petrol vehicle, they do massive damage.

[@MickeyC-ok7dk]

My favorite car is Dodge Ram fifteen hundred

[@rachelhagins1401]

I like to think the beginning is how stunt crashes are made.

[@johnnywishbone1349]

How come all the airbags don’t deploy? Wouldn’t it add protection from broken glass and objects? I mean the cars going to be totaled anyways. Why save the bags?

[@corbynluce9755]

The fact the 2020 Kia Telluride only leaned about 5 degrees says it’s a sturdy suv and won’t tip in a crash of that speed

[@LeoMkII]

Got marginal in the updated side impact 💀

[@georgevavoulis4758]

I feel it's time to have better seats and seatbelts in cars. Seats should stay in place and head restraints should keep head from moving all over the place . Also how about "FULL HARNESS SEATBELTS " like those in fighter jets and rally cars

[@gcrackerz]

I think the idea is to keep seatbelts easy to put on so that people actually use them.

[@Steve-tn5ru]

Yeah let's keep blinding on coming traffic with them really bright LED headlights. You know the ones that make it where you can see them a mile ahead but cars coming at you can't see in front of them

[@raionshishi8290]

Brightness has nothing to do with it, it's angle and glare, why do some people say it's brightness of the LED as if that's the problem ?

[@Ava-oc1dg]

[@jeffruebens8355]

The biggest problem is guvmints not saying "try again" for vehicles that fail the tests. The public is too dumb to not buy unsafe vehicles, for example the Gyp Wrongler, and even I like to sometimes ride motorcycles that are very unsafe.

[@vincentaziati7430]

This has been my worry all day today.

[@TD_TD-TD_TD]

Yes so true lol

[@TD_TD-TD_TD]

Also the problem isn’t that cars fail, in fact it’s the opposite, most cars pass due to the fact that the government test was made for cars in the 70s. That’s why they run it at a rather low speed. The test is over 50 years old. Many unsafe cars pass because all they have to do is make there cars safer for the test, not real life. In real life you are very unlikely to run into a flat EVEN wall at 35 mph lol

[@bryan-q9h]

Looks like the honda odyssey had plastic rims they shattered completely😮

[@kylecoolky1189]

Talking all about safety but no mention of Tesla at all? Both the Model 3 and Model Y have gotten it every year since they came out and have multiple awards, like the winner of best headlights (best visibility while being the least blinding to oncoming cars), the cars with the lowest likelihood of injury, and the winners of the strongest roof. They also consistently score 5 out of 5 stars in every category *and subcategory* which is extremely rare to do once, let alone every singe year.
