rverdoold Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Not for the faint hearted, the swiss DTC group did a small overlap crash test with an SVX. On the good note, it seems that for a 90s car it does very good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dT5PD1stTO0 (DTC does all kinds of weird crash tests at speed with retired cars) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rverdoold Posted January 22, 2022 Author Share Posted January 22, 2022 It is actually more interesting to crash test older cars. That then shows what the rust does to the structure. Here I think the SVX remains well stable, indeed there are quite some newer cars that would not be that good. Airbag remains stable, footwell probably collapsed. I think here the wide boxer engine might help a bit in absorbing the forces and spreading them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
