- A 50 Mph, 70% overlap rear crash test.
Result: Pass - No Fuel Leak.
This is a test on the fuel system to ensure there is no fuel leakage in a high-speed rear-end collision. There is no instrumentation in the dummies. - Авто та транспорт
The cool thing is that Volvo has a feature (that probably is deactivated here) that will pretension the seat belts (before the crash!) and that will apply FULL brake (before the crash!), and it will also flash the rear indicators fast (before the crash!) to try to alert the driving hitting the car and it will prepare the rest of the crash system so it's ready for a crash (before the crash!). So if/when the crash happens, the car is ready and the passengers are secured and the car will minimize the risk of bumping into other cars after the crash.
The flashing rear lights may be illegal in the us. I’m not 100% sure but we can’t have flashing brake lights during panic stop here (which is so dumb) so I don’t see why that would be allowed
Literally every car has the seatbelt pretentioner system, and the full break system is to avoid a collision, it doesn’t do anything during a crash
@@lmaoidkwhattoputasausernam3033 Pretensioner system Xanthopteryx was talking about is different. They were talking about a pretensioner that uses an electric motor and can tighten and loosen without needing to be replaced. The pretensioner u are talking about is different.
Also by applying the brakes during a crash it makes the car move forward less, which reduces the forces on the occupants in the car getting rear ended.
@@lmaoidkwhattoputasausernam3033 No, they do not. We are talking about the seatbelt pretension BEFORE the crash even happens. SO, BEFORE it is rear ended, the seatbelt will pull you firmly into the seat.
And the full brake minimizes the risk of crashing into other cars ahead.
@@nickbien I think he's referring to hazard lights not brake lights. But I could be wrong.
Honey I have heard a strange noise at the back. Do you mind taking a quick look?
Did the barrier survive?
they need to start doing tractor trailer crash tests they should all
have curtain airbags for a rollover would save a lot of lives .
Volvo says: what happened?
Glad i can see it survive.
The car wasn’t turn on and it’s a problem because Volvo added a rear impact system who tides the safety belt, turn on the hazard or even flash it and makes a full braking power to mitigate a second crash with a véhicule in front of the car
The point of this test isnt to ensure occupant safety, in this test this is to make sure there is no fuel leakage in the event of a major rear end collision.
I'd like to know how far back the front driver's seat goes in case a child is in the second row.
You know this got a 100 percent
what happened to the third row seats, i'm wondering.
You'd live back there. Might hurt but survivable.

whattheheck1000
of course, it's a volvo :-D.
but i want to see pictures from the inside, maybe the footwell is compromised. i know this test is about fuel system integrity, not passenger safety.
lol
Arsch Kopp the Volvo’s third row seats have just the right style of seat to protect you in a serious rear end crash. It doesn’t look like you would be Hurt
Nothing, deformation didn't get to the third row at all.
I’ve been researching third row safety because we want put people in there…. but heck. Wanted a mid size suv with reliability and comfort in third row. Might go for a cheap Honda pilot. Other options are explorer and atlas, which is relatively costly to repair and maintain
I thought this was a low speed crash bc of how well it held up.. then I saw it was 50mph
Execellent safety, Volvo test at these speeds in their own lab if you watch their videos
That’ll buff out.
actully it was good but below the rear windshield sthe structure pushed up
I wonder how many warning lights and error messages would appear if they turned the car on
Robert Davis Traction control, abs, engine im sure, suspension (if it has air suspension), transmission, awd (assuming it has it) oh! And tire pressure! 😂😂
@@J-W.- Probably one: The car has been in an accident and is now in safe mode.
Good to see that the automakers are making their front seats stronger.
All it needs is a new rear tailgate and bumper, how is it that strong?
Jacob Thompson it’s a volvo
Check again budy that rear end collision 90% destroyed the rear suspension and axles of the vehicle look at the rear right wheel how its cocked outward than watch the slow motion and you will see the driveshaft snap out of place and bend, and this isnt including the rear rails.
@@J-W.- Thats not a driveshaft :D, thats a exhaust. Yes it has damaged suspension but i bet that it can drive to safe position at least :D.
What a tank
Leave brakes on like you would be at the lites,this takes the force of the impact,cheating a pisstake.
People don't understand that in a rear collision like this, you're thrust backwards and more likely than not, your foot lifts off the brake pedal. What little drag is on the brakes in those few milliseconds is almost negligible in the duration of the event.
@@CarPro1993 Usually into another vehicle in front.I have pulled seats out of Volvos they are very heavy and build stronger than Japanese vehicles,the backs wont snap off and propel you through the back window in a rear ender.
@@geoffbell166 Thank gawd for that!
they should use a real car or truck …..
This is a stunt and not a test if that crash sled doesn't weigh what a normal car or truck would.
Volvo used to be better
