@@supperswaggdude749 no.. it’s because it’s a Volvo. Look at some other sedans that have gone through this test and failed miserably. Volvo’s safety is superior.
not really that impressive, it bounced past the barrier. Obviously this is a good thing for people inside but the impact was low compared to other cars who come to a complete stop after colliding.
Volvo designed their car’s safety cage with a technology that instead of hitting right into the barrier, it pushes the car outwards, avoiding the sudden stop and deceleration other automakers experience in this test. That’s why you see the car still going without loosing much speed.
@@akj2387 Chance of that is very low and i still prefer to slide off with some of energy lost at 1st hit than just lose ALL of the energy at one moment.
The only thing more I would ask from this car is I wish it slowed down after the crash instead of rebounding and slamming head on into the wall ahead. It would prevent further damage and maybe avoid another accident after rebound. It’s nice that the hazard lights automatically turn on when a collision is detected, I wish all cars done that.
It actually stops the car after the crash. In the crash test it does not do it because they have to take out all systems that might affect the crash. In the real world that volvo would have probably avoided the crash anyways because of the saefty systems😂
A small overlap is supposed to be done like that, and the car sliding off is a good thing! Although you and some other people might think otherwise because it could “slide into oncoming traffic”, in real life the car would brake post crash so they dont crash into other vehicles
@Omega you dont get it, the car slid off because there is no stationary object to the right side. If there was then the slide action would be cancelled and it would have to be stopped by hitting the front barrier in small overlap.
it is a totally different test and a totally different situation from the frontal crash. The whole point of this one is to test if the car is able to swerve in a semi-tangential collision when the driver tried to avoid it, which may be a common scenario and it appeared that some cars were not able to handle it well. So sliding away and avoiding significant deacceleration is a proper way to solve this problem.
It's impressive the way the cabin of the car stayed mostly intact. Although at this point I'm not surprised....it's a Volvo
It’s because it’s a sedan, not because it’s a volvo lol

A lot of Acuras also did well

Sliding off is the safest way. Imagine this crash at 100 kph.
What if u slide into something else

@@kubarro true, if you lose all energy at first, at higher speeds the a pillar collapses, which leads to death in most cases
Then that can be bad since it can slide onto oncoming traffic and cause a bigger accident
i slid off in a crash in a 2013 nissan pathfinder it was great
Post crash braking is also used
donated its wheel and kept going
Volvo: "Could you stop pointing that crash test barrier at my family?!"
Я видел както вольву,лично!
У вольво очень хорошая безопасность
Лучшая а Мире.
the car be like.. yeah f*** you buddy.. here you can have my Tire I'm outta here

it has post crash brake

shit i dont need 4 Wheels :)))

hmmm.... I'm not sure if this crash test was done properly. This car barely touched the wall and slide away without slowing down. I’m confused.

safe volvo
The single saddest video in history, IMO
Give me five
This is cheating. If there was an object near the right side of the car then it wouldn’t have been able to slide off.

“Cheating”.. how exactly is that cheating? Its good chassis engineering
In a test like this they deactivate safety systems like aeb, so in real life the car would probably straighten itself out and braked after it slid off
