lol the only car in the us without airbags legaly from the factory? civillian hummer H1, cuz when u smash sumone in an H1, ur gunna win period!! i watched a full load f350 t bone “smartcar” at about 60k., yea she lived, but if she was in something bigger she woulda been better off for sure

they did put a hayabusa in one “diablo” crazy fast this one not so smart

they need to put a hayabusa engine in it lol :-P… seriously tho, i would actually buy one then

dude u get hit in an F-150 your fuckin done

its not always the impact that hurts you, the rate of deacceleration also comes into play, a big car with more sheet metal to absorb some energy before coming to a final stop is much preferable imo, a little bit more fuel is a small price to pay for more safety imo.

The Smart is designed as a runabout in cities. In Europe, many city streets look like a rabbit warren, so driving your ‘Yank tank’ around them is out of the question!

I’m not sure I agree with the presenter’s logic for not buying a Smart, i.e. that you should buy a bigger car for safety. Result= everyone gets bigger and bigger cars, and no one is any safer!

Didn’t you guys learn from the Cold War that upping the ante doesn’t guarantee safety?

In a vehicle-vehicle crash, the larger car usually wins. So the obvious answer is to always have a bigger car than the other guy.

*drives off in a tornado-chaser vehicle*

I need one of these in the back of my pickup for when I run out of gas since the fuel empties faster than the gauge can keep up with it!

Same with other cars.

try to crash it in 100 miles in hour then you will see the bread.

when i saw the car at 0:24 i though some1 had just put a flat tire on, taken the bumper and bonnet off and the drivers side door. i was suprised when it showed the exact same car in the test, unbelievable

that sounded like plastic when it first crashed!!

I recently took a test drive! The smart car rep drove it as hard as he could! came to a full stop in about 50 feet from 35 mph and took a hard turn at 30. went 65 and maintained control on a normal city street… never even kicked in the ESC!

I’m not sure where you got that I was being offended by the use of the word ***. I was offended by your lack of regard for the English language, and the fact that you don’t actually have any other insults in your arsenal.

i am 6feet tall, that would make it very painfull for me and my legs!

It doesn’t look like the cabin was affected much at all.

The “shock absorbers” on the wall represent the crumple zone on the other car…

“car”?? transportation I call it… Just for old women shopping

its good but..bye bye legs…

well from what I know this frontal hit simulate a frontal hit with a car when trying to avoid the colision not with a wall

that was a bull **** test

in a ral crash there arnt shock absorbers on the other car like they had on the wall they hit. if u hit a wall that car woul
d crumple

2:38 owned lol.
