Euro NCAP Crash Test of Ford Focus 2018

Euro NCAP performs a series of crash tests on each model tested:
- a frontal impact test, the car impacts a rigid barrier
- an offset frontal impact test, 40% of the width of the car is striking a deformable barrier
- a pole test, the tested car is propelled sideways into a rigid pole
- a side impact test, a mobile deformable barrier impacts the driver's door

A series of pedestrian tests are conducted with different impactors, adult and child head form, lower and upper leg form and whiplash tests are performed on a sled.

Active safety is tested based on the car’s equipment: autonomous emergency braking systems (car to car, with a pedestrian and a cyclist target), lane support and speed assist technologies and seatbelt reminders.

interesting how the driver steering wheel retracts on the impact allowing more space between driver and dashboard. nice.

It looks so good, even in NonRS or ST flavour 😋😍

New tests are in - Whiplash problem removed - overall rating 96%

It`s a very, very nice to drive. It had the 2018 model with a 1.0 engine that pleasantly surprised me. I did not expect it to be such a reliable and good engine. I went on holidays, exceptional cornering stability, exceptional braking. And so on Now I have an ST which is very, very good.

Notice how the rear occupant totally misses the headrest on the rebound at 0:32. This can cause some severe neck strain/ injury

Why EuroNCAP doesn't do the small overlap test from IIHS? Isn't that the best test to verify a car strength?

[GlaringDiamon]

Expect these to be as popular as hell in the UK, where it is said that millions of focuses are on our roads.

Очень ждём старт продаж в России. Отличная машина!

They should deduct points when the side airbag fails to deploy in the front offset crash.

[hubertwalter]

Why didn't the Focus get any points for its AEB systems on your site?

[tomsasi]

the lane keeping actually does work without a lane, just when there is grass instead?

[atulchemicalschemicals]

Can you do the crash test of Innova, Fortuner, creta of India

[arminsteinke]

Did they stiffen the Suspension Setup for this Test? Very little up and down movment for a basic configuration.

[ToyotaCelicaDude]

It looks like the first generation Kia Forte 5 from the rear.

2 questions:
1 why they are doing side test @50 km/h and pole test @ 32 km/h ? Because in real life you don't have the choice, I think that no car can resist a pole test at 50 km/h which make this test pretty useless.
Q2 why do they test whiplash test @24 km/h? In real life if you hit a car in the front of you it means that the car in the front of you receive the same energy, then the whiplash test should be done @ 64km/h, maybe because the trunk structure absorb a higher than the front??!? Not sure but euroncap is doing a great job and save thousands of life each year

[JoelBergmark]

Wow still not even close to IIHS:s tests, time to step up your game, euroncap!

[danielmicle]

No music...:(
Kevin MacLeod-constance..?? 😍

[DenisElmazi-vnyw]

I feel like they do this tests in very low speeds, real life accidents happen in much higher speeds, why don't they try 80 or 90 km/h tests

2012 Focus mca 92 idi, 2018 neden 85 puan ?

Impact of a car can be arrested or reduced to a minimum by a sample method by transfering impact load instanteneously . Iam researching this matter and finally I found a method to rectify it
