Very good work, interesting to see how these full size trucks perform with the updated tests. I've commented on other videos but I'd love to see updated full size truck vs. compact car collision testing to represent different bumper heights with modern vehicles. Vehicles have gotten heavier and many trucks larger since the last test and it'd be very interesting to see how trucks and smaller cars perform in head on collisions.
I'm absolutely for updating crash tests and digging the rear small dummy. I'm tiny (5 foot zero) and I'm scared about crashes since the belts are designed for full grown men. If they keep adding these tests, safety will just get better and better.
Hi - I thought you would like to know that tests with 5th female dummies of about 5' and 100 lbs in the front seats have been part of US frontal compliance requirements for years. IIHS updated their tests to add dummies in the back because no US frontal tests were testing rear seat performance. Europe was testing these rear seating positions and some carmakers put better equipment in European rear seats but not in the US vehicles. IIHS is tricking them into putting those features in our cars, too.
The rear seat is an issue that would be tough to solve. Maybe wider lap belts? Need to be careful with air bags since there could be a baby seat back there. The Chevy looked like the frame broke on the side impact. Look how much that bed moved. Sounds like the Ram did best on side impact and Tundra on front offset for rear passenger.
These trucks did well on front passenger safety but the rear is so overlooked. The fact that people are willing to spend nearly 50K as to people who think they are "safe" is unacceptable for a truck that expensive. The Mazda 3 and Honda Accord literally will eat all these trucks alive.
Really wish they'd test full sized SUVs. A Chevy Suburban/GMC Denali isn't some exotic car but IIHS has never crashed one, ever in the decades long existence of the car. Same for the Ford Expedition/Lincoln Navigator, Tesla Model X, Lexus LX, Toyota Sequoia and Mercedes GLS.
@@iihs-hldiVery cool! Please add the sequoia to that list. I always found it weird how we were testing electric cars that weigh the same or more as these massive SUVs but not testing the SUVs
@@theclueguy3388I wonder if electrics were more of an unknown so insurance companies wanted to know more about unknown electrics, whereas they already have claims data for regular large SUVs so it's not as urgent?
You should do rear end test for small cars especially when they are used as a brake by a pickup truck doing 50, my back seat ended up in the front seat
Fun fact - worldwide many countries including the US require rear impact testing for fuel leaks, but not one country has a test for occupant safety in the back seat.

I think they said in a farily recent video that car manufacturers were doing a lot better with bumper heights at least
I miss Joe Nolan narrating these videos. Glad to see he’s still kicking!
You guys do great work, I pay attention and your results affect my purchases. Thank you!

I will forever want you guys to test the crown Vic again with these new tests.
It would be sobering, to say the least.
Considering it earned a marginal on the side crash test old, it will probably outright fail almost all the current tests
Love these video. Wish you guys could go more in depth on the analysis and data for us who want to nerd out.
Keep it up IIHS! Love seeing content like this.
Keep up the great work! I love these videos.
Could you guys talk about how IIHS acquires the vehicles and prepares them for tests?

The problem has to do with the lack of rear seat crash tensioners and force limiters, not the seat belt length
@@matthewmooney4301
Seat belt width.. not length. A wider belt wouldn't cut into the dummy so easily.
@@JohnDough-d6o Yes, but these vehicles had submarining because of the seat geometry, rather than the belt width.
IIHS, u forgot the video of the 2023 Toyota Tundra crew cab updated side IIHS crash test

Been waiting for this

We're about to get started with the Tahoe, Expedition, and Wagoneer.
@@iihs-hldiHot dog! 🍿🍿🍿

I think the best large SUV in the updated moderate overlap would be the Ford Expedition, Tesla Model X, or the Mercedes GLS.
What about when someone crashes into them from the rear? Will the back go straight throughout the windshield?
Imagine a crash test with the small overlap with four passengers in the vehicle 🤔
Still love my old 93 1500 no safety except seat belts LIKE A ROCK SHOULD COME BACK!!!!!!!!
I'd like to see crew cab vs ext cab vs reg cab. Any brand. Really just curious how it affects it
cant wait to see the cybertruck testing
Tundra always done pretty well on safety

Nice shoes!
Where's the Nissan Titan?
Structure is a big safety issue. Roof air bags should be compulsory
Does that mean that if in a small overlap test all would have been "poor"?
In an updated small overlap test looking at the the rear seat? Yeah probably all poor.
There is less deceleration in the small overlap test. Therefore, ratings would likely be different.
@@SuperMrgentlemanno
Do crash Test For 2024 Honda Pilot
😅Vehicles getting heavier, causing more death. So we make them heavier to protect, but those vehicles then go on to cause more deaths.
Need to equalize vehicle masses.
@@aliendroneservices6621 💨Whooosh💨
@@aliendroneservices6621 Need to regulate non-commercial light trucks like cars
None of those are large pickups. 1/2 ton trucks are close to the smallest available in the us
What full-size SUV do you think would perform the best in the updated moderate overlap?
$55k for a base model truck to get super injured. Awesome.
Big shocker. Trucks are not that safe. 🙄
i find it funny that people call these trucks safe
sure, they may be safe for the people inside... but...
uh yeah no
Give ratings on collisions with pedestrians and bikes too. People exist and go places outside cars
Nah I'm not buying a different car based on how it does with pedestrians
@@SuperMrgentlemanthat's exactly why it's necessary: the road is full of selfish pricks
they literally have several videos of that
IIHS tracks that safety data too, after all insurance companies cover that kind of liability.
Euro-Ncap already does this with their ratings in Europe; I wonder when will the IIHS will incorporate this into their tests as well.
You guys gonna test Tesla Cybertruck anytime soon? Dont care about whether it does good or not, I just want to see funny video of it getting smashed.
Chill, it's not even out yet...
Heaven forbid a good safety rating and Top Safety Pick+ from IIHS would save on insurance rates
Good❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
