Euro NCAP Crash & Safety Tests of VW ID.7 2023

Euro NCAP performs a series of crash and safety tests on car models:

▶ a frontal impact test where 50% of the width of the car strikes an oncoming deformable barrier, travelling at 50 km/h
▶ a frontal impact test where the car impacts a full-width rigid barrier
▶ a side impact test where a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door
▶ a pole test where the car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole and the robustness of the centre airbag is evaluated
▶ a whiplash test performed on a sled.

A series of pedestrian tests are also conducted with different impactors : adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form. As well as AEB pedestrian and cyclist tests. In 2023 a test scenario for Cyclist Dooring Prevention was introduced.

Active safety is rated based on the performance of the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking car-to-car and car-to-motorcycle scenarios, occupant status monitoring (including seatbelt reminders, fatigue, distraction and impairment), lane support and speed assistance technologies.

Damn this is straight up better than the EQE

[rendaddy_]

why don't all car videos show night time pedestrian tests?

[zaphod]

2:19 great overall, but why does the car not brake in this situation and instead hit the pedestrian? I mean obviously it would have the capability to brake, but it doesn't.

[adamriese]

in the German configurator is the head and side Airbag optional (front and back) if you order the interieur package +, so the here tested version is not the base one? its sad, that safety costs extra and is not standard at such a high priced car

[andiundertaker]

Add small overlap and increase the speeds of crashes and size of the oncoming car.

[dhruvbanker]

Can any say at what speed car crash test has done🤨🤔??

[ping-pong-marcelo-brittes]

Que legal esse carro, não matou os ocupantes!!!

[olivierricci]

Tests sound realized with that it level of charge for the battery ?

[jokusimola]

Cars withstand collisions well. People come second. My friend, an active ice hockey player, died in a direct collision with a wall, his liver ruptured. Lost control of his car in slippery conditions at 60 km/h.

Tesla Cyber truck: Pedestrian head severed :). By design... Dont touch my Tesla!

Any new car should be able to get a minimum of 4 stars (5 should still be the goal) once in the B category and higher so the VW I.D series is no exception (it’s also a while still until the 1 A category city caris ready)

Only Dacia still can’t even get 3 stars because they are so cheap with safety

[LivingTheDream]

The dummy car’s mass needs to be at least doubled to accurately represent the mass of the avg electric vehicle.

[omell]

I wonder if a battery was installed during the tests

[AB-ogeg]

Euro NCAP is not consistent, videos cannot be compared between more cars. Always a different camera shot. VW hit two pedestrians and has 83% -:), funny

[chocolate-nmpk]

80% for safety assist? Wow really bad. 🤣
