Whilst the Smart car is very strong and protects passengers the problem is that the actual impact would be far greater because there is less absorption of the impact and I believe that more severe injuries would occur to the passengers in the Smart car than the occupants of the Mercedes.
Doubtful, since the absorption was in the Mercedes front end. Deceleration forces would have been similar. Now... put each into a concrete wall and there might be a difference.
Smart is a lot safer than u think. Look how the roof didnt even move, windshield almost remained as it is. I bet that VW Golf MK4 would be a lot worse under the same circumstances.
That is right. Crumpling may not just be in the body metal but also how the metal is put together. I am not an expert at vehicle crash testing. Body damage isn't the concern, its the human being in the vehicle we're worried about. We can have a vehicle heavily mangled in an accident but the passengers walk away fine. We can have a vehicle with its body only bent slightly, but the person dies in that collision for some unknown reason.
Between design (looks) and using metals that are safe for operation, safety is top priority. I assume crumpling lessens the severity of a heavy impact. But we may be wrong. I am not an expert at vehicle crash testing. How the car is built (internal frame) and placement of the engine contributes to the crash. The Porsche is said to have rear engine so front impact collision ratings may be different.
Crumpling includes any materials involved in the accident. This is in the engine, tires bent and interior dash board that can cave and crush your legs.
Many of the same people with negative comments will jump right on a motorcycle with no second thought. If you don't think this car did well, watch the video for the Camry vs Yaris. The Camry's front end hits the Yaris dummy in the face. Clearly this car holds it's own safety record when compared to others. This car has a lower mortality rate than other cars. People have been waiting for a Smart car disaster in the US since 2008, and it still hasn't happened....for 6 years. I want one.
Correct. A concern with the Smart car is that it is small. Anything above two vehicles travelling 35 mph you can get crushed. I'd rather be safe than worry about how cool a car looks (retro). Its funny people actually buy a car thinking they will only use it for what it is meant to do. Then come to find it isn't very practical. Something they should'v known before they bought the car.
To me, light impact constitutes no serious injury or fatality. This is in regards to plastic bumpers used today. This is only an example and again I am not an expert. By trying to save money, we take away a feature (the aluminum bumper) that protects us from serious injury in a serious accident. If replacing a thin piece of aluminum pose so many problems that it can outweigh human safety and human life, then I suggest we take a moment and ask ourselves whether it is worth the risk.
Metals used should be high quality. We must be careful not to go too lightweight. We want it to be just right. There are other methods of reducing the risk of injury and fatality. Implementing crash zones (square and rectangular bars) is an example.
There great little cars in the city but in the country thats a different story, i would only use it on a golf course even then where do you put your clubs .
If someone was in a 42 and they crashed under identical circumstances, at a minimum, they'd be hurting. The thing that caught my eye was that the 42 reversed direction during impact, effectively bouncing off the Merc and being thrown back. Well enough for the car, but that is a very abrupt movement for a human body. I reckon that would do damage.
For its size Smart is the hardest car amongst the small ones. This test shows that a Smart will keep in one piece his driver even after a crash against a twice bigger car. Of course, nobody knows who will survive in such accident.
In general, MB reliability collapsed, and got worse with Chysler's merger. What happened was a couple of things. First, MB rushed a ton of electronic heavy technology to market before it was quite ready. Second, MB squeezed its suppliers who in turn supplied inferior parts, as MB tried to keep pace with Lexus. These two factors led to an absolute crash in quality around this time.
I don't think so. With the advent of carbon capture and sequestration, we can use carbon dioxide captured from electricity plants to utilize as micron-filtration material (google carbon capture). Therefore the cost of carbon fiber should not be that expensive.
@iambingojesus Although the Smart is much stiffer, it also provides much less room and time for deceleration, making concussions and trauma injuries much much more common than in a heavy, full sized car. The more mass the car has, the less deceleration the car will undergo. The larger the front of the car is, the more time is allowed for a more subtle deceleration. The slower the passengers decelerate, the higher the survival rate is.
@EckoHawker Not really .. The occupant survival space was very well maintained. It looks like the passengers in the Smart car probably would walk away with a few cuts and that is it ..
Well I don't know the cost of metal frames back then compared to the cost of metals frames today. I assume today uses more advanced metals than just simple iron. From my knowledge, body panels (hood, bumper and surrounding regions) today are thin sheets of some form of metal stamped into shape.
Don't expect to survive a 100mph to 0mph accident in any car. Your body just can't handle that. We aren't MADE for that. I think the Smart is incredible in this crash. 2 times smaller, 2 times lighter than the Merco. Now do the same, but put a Citroen 2CV. Look what happens and how far we have come. As said, better drive correctly than expecting protection from your car. This is the best you can do regarding safety.
He was in a car with racing safety equipment, like a 5 point seat belt. His physiology is probably different than that of most people. Just because he survived doesn't mean the average person could
If you take a closely look you will see that when the cars touched each other the smart will start actually bend his front part at the same time that mercedes front part is fully destroyed so don't say that smarts are bad and unsafe they are but they have also very good plecium
the problem isnt just the size of the fortwo, its the fact that it came to a stop, and moved backwards in a fraction of a second. thats what you call a broken neck.
@onurthemonur There are no rigid cars anymore - rigidity kills you. Modern cars are built with "crumple zones" so that if you get in a nasty crash, the crumple zone absorbs the impact. down side: a 15kmh crash might crack something and be very expensive to replace, while an old car might just buff it out. up side: you're not dead. Old cars are a death trap in high speed crashes.
@onurthemonur think bout it... if the e-class would be rigid all the impact will be transferred to you... in that case you'll be paraplegic in the better case, but your car would have no damage...
Didn't I say example? My concern was that when we try to go too lightweight and economical, we can lose the goal of making a car safe. That which outweighs saving fuel economy & minor iron conservation. Now I don't know how the testing is like but if the cheaper the metal the better the crash rating, then thats what it is. I guess you'd have to factor in how the engine sits inside the hood among a hundred other things that are involved (legs being crushed, etc). Can engines crumple by the way?
multiple airbags in a Smart...normal wheel bag...under dash bag....left and right side top frame bags....bags in seat(kidney/side bags) frame doesn't warp on impact.....cars done but at speed and impact...decent....and anything doing 70 to 0 in NO seconds....doesn't matter what you are in...internals tend to not like sudden decrease in momentum.....
To think the engine bay of my 2007 E420 CDI is big enough for an entire smart car... I love luxobarges XD And I try my best to keep my E-class safe and hopefully never have to see how a Mercedes can save my life.
The overhead view at 3:12 shows the passenger compartment in the Smart vehicle did give way a bit. Which really isn't bad considering the other vehicle was an E-Class.
That smart is terribly dangerous for crew. Short impact deformation zone is not good for energy dissipation and it means that the hit is hard and also the acceleration(deceleration) of your body is very high and it causes major injuries of your internal body organs and brain. on the other hand controlled deformation of E-clase shows nice how long travel has car for dissipating the kinetic energy and by it decreasing the acceleration.
There are more to consider in a real life situation in the even of a crash, but however a good rated vehicle is still better than a lower rated ones unless the size and weight of the vehicles vary too much.
The cage is extremely well built but that doesn't stop the forces experienced in a crash. You are still going to die. If a huge, correction, regular sized car crashes into the the Smart Fortwo they will without a doubt die. Although a side crash they will be fine. Rear crash, probably not, because (look at the IIHS test) is equivalent of being rear ended by another Smart.
The problem with the Smart is it is too small for large enough crumple zones to absorb energy and too light to absorb energy. I would never ride in one.
+Brett Hobbs You will almost for sure live thru an accident in a Fortwo. You will however NOT walk away. The footwell gives way along with the crumple zones. You would likely never walk again, but, you would be alive, so it beats a lot of other cheap cars by default.
You know it's a small car wen the drivers airbag breaks the window. Don't even argue I've talked to a cop in the MARR unit and seen videos of airbags deploying and they don't break windshields. Neither can people fly threw them. Like in GTA IV
The problem is Our Government isn't regulating the type of metals used when a car company builds a car. If we're all using safe crumple zone metals and carbon fiber then the risk of fatality in an accident will reduce dramatically.
@Pilot853 Obvious how? Have you any idea how they are constructed? The Smart, though small, is a very 'hard' car, the frame gives immense rigidity and passenger protection. The rear engine means that unlike a front-engine design, in a front-end crash it can't be pushed through into the passenger area and kill you (very common). All cars have to undergo rigorous crash-testing, and are not allowed on the roads if they fail. So not "trying to prove" but "have proved" that the Smart is safe...
The one thing they can't do with crash test dummies is what a person does upon an eminent crash. Most people, especially front seat passengers will brace for impact. IE: hands on the dash, feet/legs braced against he floor near the inside firewall, etc.
ADAC do that to test what you actually do when you holiday, of course with hand at dash or evenly foot at dash plus many holiday things at your bagage.
when a car is so lightweight and crashes with such a heavy car it's accelaration is huge so even if the car doesn't brake at all the seat belt will break every bone of you.....imagine going on 30 mph and in less than 1 second going in 10 mph...these are many G and your body can't handle so much pressure even from seat belt.
.... iunno man... people drive like 90kph on the streets (city traffic =\) and 130kph on the hwy... dun think that solid cube is a "good enough protection" without major injuries =\ that car is meant for countries with high capacity and small roads (like japan). should never be sold in north america or europe where ppl consistently go 130kph+
A Smart Fortwo is safer than multiple vehicles. A Smart Fortwo is safer than a Toyota Yaris. A Smart Fortwo is safer than a motorcycle. A Smart Fortwo is safer than a scooter. A Smart Fortwo is safer than a bicycle.
@nahpoli are u kidding me? The mercedes e-class is above almost any car on the marked in safety. It's a very solid car, compared to the japanese rice-cookers
Obviously he intended humorous hyperbole. But, since you want to be exacting, people have also fallen from airplanes and survived. One fluke miracle does not make precedent. G force tolerance varies by factors from age to physical condition to restraints used, but most people are going to be messed above 60 Gs. Suffice it so say, no matter how you cut it, at any speed above city driving, your chance of survival and avoiding injury will always be higher in a car with actual crumple zones.
Whilst the Smart car is very strong and protects passengers the problem is that the actual impact would be far greater because there is less absorption of the impact and I believe that more severe injuries would occur to the passengers in the Smart car than the occupants of the Mercedes.

I have both an E-Class and a Smart car. Its good to know if i and my sister ever crash into each other, Ill walk away laughing. :p
I saw this video for the first time yesterday, because your comment was on a norwegian comedian site.
Crumpling includes any materials involved in the accident. This is in the engine, tires bent and interior dash board that can cave and crush your legs.
Even with a trident frame off the smart, i don't think your legs will survive this crash..
@onurthemonur accually the mercs crumple zone absorbed the energy thats why it got dameged

Volvos Are tougher
i dont know for them but i know mercedes is one very strong car ;)
yes they are very strong cars i'll agree
SuperSayanFitness yes but they are designed to crumple these days rather than destroy the other vehicle and slow down the impact speed
please don't take that title away from VOLVO... ^_^ but rest assured the Mercedes cars are a lot prettier than the VOLVOs though... ^_^

Crashes in small cars will always be more violent that a sedan for example because there is nothing to cushion the impact.
