Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of MG 4 Electric 2022
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2024
- Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:
- a frontal impact test, 50% of the width of the car is striking an oncoming deformable barrier, also travelling at 50 km/h
- a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid full width barrier
- a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door
- a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole.
A series of pedestrian tests are conducted with different impactors, adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form and whiplash tests are performed on a sled as well as AEB pedestrian and cyclist tests.
Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking car-to-car scenarios, occupant status monitoring (including seatbelt reminders), lane support and speed assistance technologies.

I’m very impressed how it held up to that pole. Barely any intrusion.
@not today it is indeed.
I do agree.
Can confirm, the lane departure system tries to murder you at least 10 times per journey
Ditto with my wife's XC40, seems more designed to scare the living f**k outta me rather than protect me.
Only 10? Mine like to try and steer me back into cyclists occasionally.
@@garyward6673 Tbf is that such a bad thing? 👀
Agree
Depends on what car and to do with the setting, I set up every safty fiture to low on my Haval Jolion so while driving I can feel it but not scare me and a few time it woke me up when I was about to fall asleep and my car was about to cross lane, thank god it saved my life
China builds a better MG than Britain ever could....Oh the irony..
And probably more reliable too, as electric cars barely need maintenance lol
@@santileonsteinberg1441 until you need to replace the battery pack after 8-10 years which will cost about £5k+ and write the car off
@ben3291 still with that old China I see? More likely that the issue will be with non-Chinese built batteries.
@@shaunpowelluk With all electric cars after 5-10 years . I like these MGs but EVs are not the answer for the future they are no better for the environment with how the batteries are made . The best solution is what a few manufacturers are doing it's Hydrogen Fuel Cell cars.
@ben3291 I own a hybrid which has a 13kwh battery from 2014 with 63,000 miles on the clock. It's arguably more hard-working than a traditional EV, as the engine never drives the wheels, but maintains a low state of charge when the battery runs out, and I always charge it to 100%. If you think about it, it fast charges the battery whilst the car in drive at highway speeds (the car in question is the Chevy Volt)
At most, I've noticed a 10% drop in range. This is based on a technology built in the early 2000s.
Hydrogen Fuel Cell has already been seen as impractical for normal consumer use. Perhaps for haulage, shipping and aircraft it has a place, but passenger vehicles requires lots of refuelling locations and HFC doesn't allow for that infrastructure as well as electric and ICE fuel.
It's also notoriously more dangerous than even a traditional ICE car due to the high pressure storage under the passenger compartment. At least with modern batteries fire and other hazards are far less likely.
B-pillar is very solid
"Lane Support : 3/4 - Euro NCAP" Can't say that in the real world. As a MG4 owner, I can confirm : the LKA/ELK can be really unreliable. It's baffling how what is meant to make you safer, is trying to kill you and/or the others. Gotta love the tedious steps to deactivate those EVERY SINGLE TIME you start drivng. Easy to forget and drive away.
Did you go to the garage to update it? The latest release of the software is much better.
you can get those ''safety'' features removed with an obd2 scanner, i know many people who've done that with a few different car brands
The AEB system seems pretty hit and miss (pardon the pun). Rear ended a car, hit a cyclist and a child. Not good enough considering the Ora Funky Cat scored higher.
This thing got 75% of pedestrian electronics, despite hitting and failing in two tests, but Maxus got 73% without hitting a single person!?
The majority of that section (vulnerable users) is weighted on how well the car protects the user, I guess because in many cases outside of the test scenario, the car will still hit a pedestrian, even if it has slowed. Unsuprisingly the emuch smaller MG4 does better at this.
Interestingly you would expect the cars both to do as well as each other on the emergency braking, they presumably both have the same technology.
It means that in other tests it did better and got more points at total.
It's not "pedestrian electronics" test. MG managed to beat Maxus in that category, because it scored better in head and pelvis impact tests, despite losing in the AEB Pedestrian and Cyclist tests.
2:28 those were the high beams?? Oh my...
@@sbomorse you can see the high beam turn off when the car stops.
มาตราการรถยนต์ไฟฟ้าแบบแบ็ต ขั้น อันเดอร์กราวด์ กี่กิโลวัตต์ และรถต้องทนแรงปะทะที่ความเร็วเท่าใหร่ ใครกำหนดไม่รู้😅
After seeing the crash test results I'll be getting one
Perfect car with saving cost
if only the lane assist actually worked like that in real world scenarios, i had my mg4 for less then a day and the lane assist tried to drive me into oncomming traffic, and tried to drive me off the road repeadetly, not once did it actually keep me in my lane it always tried to make me depart from it in potentially fatal ways, the system is so dangerous i won't even do short trips with it enabled... also due to the stupid regulations forcing it to turn on every time to get a good ncap rating, they ruined an otherwise good car, especially because MG has software issues so even if i disable it before driving it'll come back on.
I had a ZS EV and it's lane assist was also somewhat lacking. The most irritating thing of all was the damn bonging it did constantly. I HATED that car and I would never have another MG again. My ZS spent 2 months off the road in its first 10 months for various things, one of which the dealer couldn't fix so I rejected it.
idk I have an mg4 since february right now and except when lanes aren't well visible I used a lot of time the TLA and the lane keeping is good. Not perfect but good. Sometimes the one that makes me angry is the normal lane assist that beeps and use too much strength to put you on the lane it decides, also if it's not the right one
The LKA is more dangerous to use than not. Screw these stupid requirements.
Nice
Czy w tych testowanych samochodach wyjęto batrię akumulatorów czy zastąpiono je ciężarkami np. ze stali.
No they still have batteries in them
NCAP testing initial products and first versions however the company is still working on it and releasing updates for software.
New versions may increase or decrease the overall performance.
Yo no lo entiendo, un 75% en en apartado de peatones pero se lleva dos muñecos por delante, el Megane E-Tech esquiva todo y le dan un 65%...
Looking at the detailed report for the two cars, the MG4 performed much better in the pedestrian impact section so got the better score overall for vulnerable users
@@benrgrogan Ya pero me parece increíble que una tecnología que falle y se lleve por delante a dos peatones obtenga una nota superior por que en caso de llevarlos el capó amortigüe mejor...
@@adrianromero92 Looking back at the Renault video it looks like it fails the same tests just less obviously. This makes sense as in the report for both cars, it includes the line "collisions were avoided or mitigated in most scenarios" The scores of each car are shown below
MG4
Pedestrian Impact: 27.1/36
Pedestrian Auto Braking: 6.0/9
Cyclist Auto Braking: 7.5/9
Total 40.6
Renault Megane
Pedestrian Impact: 20.1/36
Pedestrian Auto Braking: 7.0/9.0
Cyclist Auto Braking 8.3/9
Total 35.4
@@benrgrogan Entonces es por el diseño vertical del capó del Megane lo que diferencia esa puntuación.
@@adrianromero92 Seems so, it scored the same as the MG on legs protection but a lot lower on head and pelvis protection
This care is more beautifull after the crashs. 🙂
Definitely 👍
That b pillar though
Waiting for a Neta V Chinese pure Ev car test
Lane assistance is a pretty dangerous thing in some cases. But it also saved me a few times, expecially useful at night, long ride
I suggest you stop driving, sell your car and get a bus pass. "A few times".
@@lukus9419 I appreciate your kindness 😊🙏
Passenger side airbag shouldn't inflate in frontal collisions with nobody in the seat
This is only possible when the passenger seat has a detection sensor that in most cases is by weight. If not, the only option is to disconnect the passenger airbag...🤷♂️
@@Ronin585 all American cars have this; kind of speaks to the safety or lack thereof found in Chinese cars
@@AnalogueKid2112 The American models will have that option, but in Europe it is not like that and it is not a security problem, be it Chinese or European. I remind you that the MG4 has achieved the 5⭐ of the EuroNCAP. There are more expensive American models that have not passed the test in Europe...🤷♂️ Obtaining 3⭐ and 4⭐.
@@Ronin585 there are zero Chinese brand cars sold in the US. They can't meet our more rigorous safety standards. 5 stars in European tests isn't the same as US NHTSA or IIHS. Euro NCAP also tested some American cars without the safety options so they rated them lower.
@@AnalogueKid2112 Of course, the EuroNCAP requirements are higher than the NHTSA or any other American safety regulations, that is why there are American models that have not obtained more than 3⭐ or 4⭐ and yet I do not remember that the same thing has happened with European models in USA...🤷♂️ Security here is much more demanding than there. For example, the entities that control the consumption and expense of fuel, or the consumption and autonomy of electric vehicles, such as the EPA there and the WLTP here, are something quite different. The EPA is without a doubt a benchmark, it is the best worldwide...
Θέλει μεγάλη προσπάθεια ακόμη για να βγάλουν στην αγορά οι Κινέζοι ένα ασφαλές αυτοκίνητο.
Στην παθητική ασφάλεια το mg4 ειναι πάρα πολύ καλό, το σασί του είναι πολυ άκαμπτο αυτο δείχνει το τεστ ειδικά στη πλαγιά σύγκρουση στην κολώνα δεν παραμορφώνει σχεδόν καθόλου το b pilar ,ακόμα και κορυφαία στην παθητική ασφάλεια αυτοκίνητα δεν έχουν τόσο άκαμπτο σασί ..Στην ενεργητική ασφάλεια χρειάζεται βελτίωση στο αυτόματο φρενάρισμα .
It gets 5 stars without central airbag?
so many cars out there have 5 star without central airbag
Work on emergency braking
My dealer said he could get me and MG4 cheap....never been driven very low mileage.. used lightly for a few tests...?
You'd be a dummy to turn that down 😂
There are going to be huge waiting lists for these cars, I’d say get it! It’s truly one of the best cars on sale today, especially for the price!
Yes a crashed one 🤣🤣👍
Do chinese use gunpowder or why there is so much smoke in car?
Air bags and seat belts use Explosives.
It’s normal and happens in every single car with pyrotechnic pre-tensioners and airbag inflators
0 -100km in 3.8
Should probably lose a * for that :)
many reasons not to buy a MG4 in this test
Stick to your overpriced jdms
不知道國產後,會不會跟歐版品質一樣
Please crash test MG rx8
Not for sale in Europe, so it will not get tested
fake crash test car speed 25-30 km/h
CHINA!
Everyone knows that, it’s not a bad thing. Your phone and probably everything else in your house comes from China as well
volvo is also made in China, so what?
Aeb system doesn't seem very good it killed a child and a cyclist
And rear ended a car!
As long as the drivers okay I'll buy it
😂😂😂😂😂
