BMW has proved from 2005 that the 3series is one of the safest cars on earth. But i like the Mazda's and Suzuki's way to bounce around and reduce the impact forces. The Audi is unacceptable
We had a BMW 325is in the mid 1990's. Traded it in on a brand new Buick Regal in '96. Both were really well constructed cars. All watching these hundreds of Crash Tests show is that you don't want to get in a bad crash in ANY Car, whether rated "safe" or not. My daughter crashed a brand new KIA in 2002 and it remained intact and the restraints and Airbag worked flawlessly. People don't think of the little KIA Spectra or Sephia as particularly safe but hers was. She is now a 34 year old school teacher with 3 kids and not a sad memory. Thanks to the Safety Engineers at KIA!
urangostang I'm going to agree the Kizashi and the BMW are the best here. The worst had to be the Malibu as the dummy completely by-passed the air bags and came into contact with the door.
im thinking that bmw did quite bad. that front left wheel went deep. bmw had latest model. malibu had alot intrusion. mazda was 2008 model and i think mazda was good only prob with mazda was curtains didint deploy. Suzuki was surprise
Not all these cars are 2013-2014. The Audi A4 B8 for example, was launched in 2008 and stopped production in 2011. The 3-Series was first introduced in 2011.
Yeah, it says "2013 A4" but the door says 2012...a 2012 model year, 2011 production. Like I pointed out before, it didn't deflect like many of the other vehicles.
BMW Rules! All the cars during impact compressed up to the middle of the doors unlike BMW's only up to the end of the bonnet line. Secondly all CTDummies did not hit the center of the steering wheel airbag except the BMW spot on target which adds more to safety! I'm so glad and blessed to drive a BMW (E60 540i V8 Beast)!
See how performs the Volvo (all models). It dodges the pole. Thus the impact is much lesser, it didn't stop at all. The Volvo people have a lot of advantage over the rest of the brands.
If you look again, the occupant head slid off the airbag, and into the side of the IP and door, even before the airbag had fully inflated in that area. BMW sucked, as did they all. They all had driver/passenger doors opening, or even flying off. How these cars can be 5* NCAP rated is beyond me. Ford Fiesta and the such like perform better. Poor Show BM and Audi... very poor show.
It is a bit more complicated. The important fact is the absorption of energy on impact through the deformation of the car around the cockpit. The dummies have not been so stirred in the BMW or Suzuki. We can note, that the absorption of BMW occurs more frontally, where Suzuki deflects an amount of energy. A full frontal impact is more tolerable for human well seated. Cars of this test are still amazing compared to those aged fifteen years.
Settore Nord The Audi didn't do bad. The only thing that I saw wrong was the head go in-between the two air-bags. What set it apart was that the head didn't have a counter and whip back towards the head rest. The four ringed owner would live on.
wilhelm Haeusler Im not saying the BMW didn't do good. In this situation the BMW did better than the Audi! But keep in mind how I said situation and in this situation the BMW prevailed; maybe the Audi would do better in a different situation?
ШЕСТЬДЕСЯТ 60 it depend...if you go vs a truck or train is a problem for Suv and for sedan :). Suv give you different position than a sedan (a little bit higher) but now the safety level is similar plus minus...personally I like more Suv also if in this moment I've an Audi a6 avant (sorry for my english)
Settore Nord but if suv hit your suv you have better safety than when suv hit your sedan, I think so, and yes audi a6 is good, but I think suv is safer
yes, sorry. I'm an Axela 07 user, and the first safety level is on the unbelivable handling of Mazda cars (after a safe driving). Everybody finds this test horrible for some, but every cars work fine as we can see.
To me, Mazda did best from all the cars in the video. Rather than smashing into the barrier, it slid around it. At higher speeds (at which the crashes are most likely to occur), passengers in other cars would be in trouble, while Mazda would slide around the same way.
i have the same audi like this one...but bmw is the best in this crash test... airbag uder the steering w. for legs is a good idea and the side one put the head in the center for the best results,well done bmw!
@@idontknowwhattoputhere. Volvo didn had poor headlights... The XC90 got Acceptable and the S90 got Good with options, you think Volvo is not because they didn earn a top safety pick? They didn even get tested for passenger small overlap protection
Chanel4211 Its a small overlap test. the most exigent angle, a lot of cars would perform badly in this specific angle. both audi and mazda would perform great in regular overlap or full head on.
the suzuki kizashi was the biggest surprise. that's like "german engineering? does it mean you have to be overpriced to persuade people of your safety?"
Ratings 2012 Audi A4 shows good protection on chest head and neck and lower leg foot and shows poor protection safety cage thigh and the restraints kinematics that applies to 2009-16 models the footwell was pushed 28 cm and the panel went 25-28 and the steering wheel pushed 13 cm to the driver and overall rating is poor The performance of the BMW F30 2012-2016 the footrest was pushed in toward the driver 40 cm, while the instrument panel intruded as much as 16 cm. The dummy’s head loaded the frontal airbag which stayed in front of the dummy until rebound. However, the steering column moved upward 16 cm, resulting in little airbag cushioning for the chest. Additionally, the seat belt allowed excessive forward excursion of the dummy’s head and torso. The side curtain airbag deployed but does not have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The restraints and the dummy kinematics were low which is acceptable protection. The lower leg foot was poor. The chest, hip, head and neck are good but its rating is marginal. The Suzuki shows Good ratings all body parts were all good. The driver space was maintained well, with maximum intrusion of the lower interior below 15 cm and maximum intrusion of the upper interior of 6 cm. Plus The dummy’s head barely contacted the frontal airbag before sliding off the left side and leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward side structure. The side curtain airbag deployed but does not have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with forward side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed. The Malibu for 2012-2013 showed marginal
Howard Hughes the 2nd I'm sure that all those muscle cars from 60-70s which didn't hesitate drinking fuel like monsters would do this better (ironic). The truth is that cars are safer than ever, statistics don't lie
+Howard Hughes the 2nd why dont you go check a Subaru Legacy crash test or a 2007 Toyota Camry crash test? You dont have to generilize only because one brand did worst.
A4 was really bad. The b pilar bent so much but at least the steering wheel stayed straight unlike the others. And then you remember this a4 is a 2008 model, almost a 10 years old design in security. Small overlap test didn't exist at that time. That is why the audi performed badly.
+Lyndon Bishop I think you next to nothing about cars. You must understand well what you see in the impact, how modern cars work and read the analysis. The BMW got a poor rating, because there was a 40cm footwell intrusion. So, well done? And these partial impacts sometimes "seem" bad for certain section of the car, because they affect the side constructions of the car.
I've noticed that in 99% of these tests that IF the Driver Dummy leaned about 6-8 inches to his right he would have hit the Airbag dead center and probably not been seriously injured. So, right before impact, lean a bit to your right. It might save your Life!
I was in an accident with a 2013 Mazda 6, 9 days after I bought it. $10,300 damage, airbags didn't deploy. I still don't think it's right to this day. I hit a car that turned left in front of me in an intersection. I was doing about 60-65 km/h. All the impact was on the right front. Completely totaled the right front, but again, the airbags didn't go off. After the initial impact, I had no steering and hit head on with another car in the other lane. Both vehicles had their airbag go off (late model Saturns).
modern airbags only go off if they are needed because otherwise they increase injury risks. if the passenger seat isn't used, the airbag there doesn't go off either.
In FORD factories. Mazda's sold in the US are just looking like originals, plastics in those are crappy, fittings are bad, and engines are from Ford. Check Euro NCAP tests of Mazda 6 (they use ones sold to EU [which are made in Japan]) totally different cars even though they look the same.
I think it's to replicate a driver's side to driver's side impact with another vehicle. I don't know where these crash tests were conducted, but here in Britain and Europe Euro NCAP use a 40% overlap.
+NotMyName Name The newer is 2015 so 7 years of poor safety, maybe B7/B6 model has much more stronger A pillar section on which depends all angle crashes.
all of you fools saying the BMW did the best are just that, fools... the BMW got a poor rating as did many BM's up until 2014+. The 2012 (2009-2013) MAZDA6 got an acceptable rating
That is one of the reasons to drive VOLVO! The BMW front wheel enters the cabin, you can't see what happened to the legs of the driver. Watch some VOLVO Crash tests, its amazing how smart the materials react! And because of that VOLVOS are heavier.
Michael Frassi Are you serious! The dummy nearly lost its head from the door coming flying off the Mazda because there was no side air bags my honest reaction was "holy F$%K" when I watch the Mazda one. BMW would appear to be the best!
Marcelo F. Kawas I don't think the side air-bag is the reason caused the Mazda performed poorly. The A pillar is bended and door is disintegrated....The passenger compartment must not be touched regardless kinds of test are. Similar thing happened when they tested VW passat CC, the door came off completely. On the other hand, BMW 3 series and Volvo held in good.
Wow look at Mazda and Chevrolet! Did you guys see that? So coooool!! All the organs are flying in the space! I would rather ride that BMW or Volvo or KIA.
The BMW performed brilliantly there and with out a doubt that, and the Suzuki were the safest picks of the bunch. However if you watch the video of the Volvo XC60 doing this exact same test you'll see that nothing comes close to it.
The older Volvo models (like the S90) didn't have any trouble with the new small overlap crashtest. They did just pass, while designed before the test was introduced.
Look at the 2013 mazda 6 model and shut up :> Safest car ranking (you can look it up on their official page): 1. mazda 6 2. bmw 3 series 3. audi a4 I love all three tho
Luka B Yea it fucking better but it´s still very surprised to se anyway, take Volvo fex they were way better back then then even the new 2014 Mazda is today..
SIMcityplayer2002 I call BS on that, it's only a proof that manufacturers make their cars just so they pass these tests without looking into real life situations. You can see these cost cuttings at BMW, the car smashes right into the barrier without any intention to break into side and slide along rather than just smash right on the wall. Japanese cars on the other hand were built to pass these tests even if they weren't required to do so. That really says something. Only European manufacturer that actually passed this test for me is Volvo, these cars are a real benchmark.
emsicz Are you f-ing kidding?! The BMW protected its driver the best of all these cars. It's passenger cell and A pillar held up the best by far and its steering wheel air bag was not knocked off center, like the others.
demoskunk Elaborate. These tests are conducted at low speeds. Should the accident happen in higher speed, passenger would've been injured, or killed, because the car goes into the wall. Mazda, on the other hand, slides around it. The deceleration is a major factor here and while BMW might have tougher shell, it won't hold against high speed collision and before mentioned deceleration will rip organs apart, while in a car that slides around the obstacle, the body does not suffer from such extreme forces. That being said, I've had E60, E61 and E91, all new and fully loaded, and they were crap. These cars are made to sell, not to serve, they've spent 6 months out of a year in a shop on warranty repairs. I wouldn't trust with my life to BMW anymore.
actually, the bmw is one of the worst. look again, the driver suffured from leg amputation.. the audi kept the legs in security but the arch bent, but keep in mind that this a4 came out in 2008 and that test was not around back then. overall, the audi scored better than the bmw.
This crash when between vehicles does not actually happen like this. Usually the two cars will push each other away. Only if more than 30% of the front ends match up will they actually stay together.
Mazda and Audi only did bad in this test because when these models were first released for the 2009 model year the small offset crash test hadn't been implemented yet. They used to use a 40% offset test which was much easier to pass
there were cool 5 sedans that i like in this video 2012 audi a4, 2012 bmw 328i, 2012 mazda 6, 2013 chevrolet malibu and the 2012 suzuki kizashi like like the 2012 mazda 6 and the 2013 chevrolet malibu and I wish the only car they would't feature in the video is the 2012 bmw 328i after the 2012 audi a4 I wish the vehicle that they should've added in the video after the 2012 audi a4 should've been a 2012 kia optima and I wish they would've added one more vehicle the 2012 dodge avenger after the 2012 suzuki kizashi and one more thing I found out what that cool instrumental song was strange by iammanolis album was things we didn't say but what year was the song released.
I am not sure that is better in the Bimmy or the Audi than in the Chevy or Mazda (except for the lack of the curtain airbag for the driver), because the Delta V are smaller and even the EESs are smaller. Much more of the kinetic energy is dissipated in the crash and not in the movement afterwards. Is more likely to survive in the Chevy (which is strange and probably not on purpose).
its crazy how you more expensive cars wont protect you in a crash like this at 30-40 mph. You could be seriously injured or killed due to someone else driving over the 2 solid line on the road.
I think after this crash tests if the car is not safe probably will be sent back to improve safety issues. :-? I mean that should be the best way to proceed.

Wow look at Mazda and Chevrolet! Did you guys see that? So coooool!! All the organs are flying in the space! I would rather ride that BMW or Volvo or KIA.
Guys Audi did their improvement on their 2016 model :p
The BMW performed brilliantly there and with out a doubt that, and the Suzuki were the safest picks of the bunch. However if you watch the video of the Volvo XC60 doing this exact same test you'll see that nothing comes close to it.
Mazda 6 we have to install safety airbas by ourselves. lol
The older Volvo models (like the S90) didn't have any trouble with the new small overlap crashtest. They did just pass, while designed before the test was introduced.
Look at the 2013 mazda 6 model and shut up :>
Safest car ranking (you can look it up on their official page):
1. mazda 6
2. bmw 3 series
3. audi a4
I love all three tho
But the one seen at 1:29 was a fatal for sure.
That is the PREVIOUS mazda 6 model. The new 2013 mazda 6 is much much better.
Luka B Yea it fucking better but it´s still very surprised to se anyway, take Volvo fex they were way better back then then even the new 2014 Mazda is today..
Yeah I agree, Volvo is the safest car brand in my opinion :)
1) Volvo
2) opel
After watching these crash tests, I'm glad I bought an Accord!
the mazda 6 doesnt have a side impact airbag??
That A4 is so bad.
yes really bad for audi
It's okay for 2008 when the small overlap crash test was never taken in mind.
SIMcityplayer2002 I call BS on that, it's only a proof that manufacturers make their cars just so they pass these tests without looking into real life situations. You can see these cost cuttings at BMW, the car smashes right into the barrier without any intention to break into side and slide along rather than just smash right on the wall. Japanese cars on the other hand were built to pass these tests even if they weren't required to do so. That really says something. Only European manufacturer that actually passed this test for me is Volvo, these cars are a real benchmark.
emsicz Are you f-ing kidding?! The BMW protected its driver the best of all these cars. It's passenger cell and A pillar held up the best by far and its steering wheel air bag was not knocked off center, like the others.
demoskunk Elaborate. These tests are conducted at low speeds. Should the accident happen in higher speed, passenger would've been injured, or killed, because the car goes into the wall. Mazda, on the other hand, slides around it. The deceleration is a major factor here and while BMW might have tougher shell, it won't hold against high speed collision and before mentioned deceleration will rip organs apart, while in a car that slides around the obstacle, the body does not suffer from such extreme forces. That being said, I've had E60, E61 and E91, all new and fully loaded, and they were crap. These cars are made to sell, not to serve, they've spent 6 months out of a year in a shop on warranty repairs. I wouldn't trust with my life to BMW anymore.
Audi and BMW are the best
BMW and Suzuki were by far the safest here
The LF wheel at 3:08 looks like it causes major injury to the driver, it basically gets pushed up into his thigh.
I take the BMW, thank you.
2012 Audi A4 2012 BMW serie 3 2012 Mazda 6 2014 Chevrolet Malibú 2012 Suzuki Kizashi
Very surprised at the audi
Not bad for 2008.
Same expected it to be safer
Bmw> everything else
...Except for Volvo and Mercedes, obviously ;)
BMW BEST
actually, the bmw is one of the worst. look again, the driver suffured from leg amputation.. the audi kept the legs in security but the arch bent, but keep in mind that this a4 came out in 2008 and that test was not around back then. overall, the audi scored better than the bmw.
Looks to me that BMW is the safest from all
the F30 is the best
Mazda's flying door cover almost sliced the camera.
Una pregunta... Por qué no estrellan los autos de frente??
Porque siempre de un costado??
2013 Audi A4 2014 BMW 3 Series 2014 Mazda6 2014 Chevrolet Malibu 2014 Suzuki Kizashi
Suzuki performed well in this test.
This crash when between vehicles does not actually happen like this. Usually the two cars will push each other away. Only if more than 30% of the front ends match up will they actually stay together.
The Mazda 6 s door went flying
Yes the driver would be very lucky to be alive in a car like that
The funny thing about this is: The difference in the cars is exactly what you would guess based on stereotypes. Apparently, they are mostly true ...
подскажите что за мелодия ?
Guys What's the music? Anyone knows the name???
I'm pretty sure the guy in the Mazda broke his neck
Well time to add that roll cage in my audi I just bought.
Mazda and Audi only did bad in this test because when these models were first released for the 2009 model year the small offset crash test hadn't been implemented yet. They used to use a 40% offset test which was much easier to pass
there were cool 5 sedans that i like in this video 2012 audi a4, 2012 bmw 328i, 2012 mazda 6, 2013 chevrolet malibu and the 2012 suzuki kizashi like like the 2012 mazda 6 and the 2013 chevrolet malibu and I wish the only car they would't feature in the video is the 2012 bmw 328i after the 2012 audi a4 I wish the vehicle that they should've added in the video after the 2012 audi a4 should've been a 2012 kia optima and I wish they would've added one more vehicle the 2012 dodge avenger after the 2012 suzuki kizashi and one more thing I found out what that cool instrumental song was strange by iammanolis album was things we didn't say but what year was the song released.
what is the crash speed ?
Hunny Records 64 km/h in 90% of tests
suzuki drivers be like nah, i aint hurt. and then drive away.
I think Volvo and Merc will score positively this rough test.
These are cars from 2012. So don’t raise your expectations
I am not sure that is better in the Bimmy or the Audi than in the Chevy or Mazda (except for the lack of the curtain airbag for the driver), because the Delta V are smaller and even the EESs are smaller. Much more of the kinetic energy is dissipated in the crash and not in the movement afterwards. Is more likely to survive in the Chevy (which is strange and probably not on purpose).
A reminder that this test does not cover passenger side impact. Some seems good but fails in passenger side impacts.
its crazy how you more expensive cars wont protect you in a crash like this at 30-40 mph. You could be seriously injured or killed due to someone else driving over the 2 solid line on the road.
audi super
looks like Mazda was 1st it had great deflection... then BMW and sadly Audi was last.
Shit!!!I was thinking to buy a Mazda 6!! .|.
cityhunterhf Actually Japanese cars perform better than their American competitors, and some europeans
U can die in any car, but theres nothing wrong of buying japanese cars, just drive carefully..
it is safe
I think after this crash tests if the car is not safe probably will be sent back to improve safety issues. :-? I mean that should be the best way to proceed.
Crash test ratings?!?
wow respect BMW!
How many mph were there in each test?
each test was run at 40 mph
The Mazda is built with wacky glue
The problem with the curtain airbag, which serves no purpose ... his head hits the panel
BMW is the winner
does anybody knows the song from this video?
