    Wait.... The dummy went in between both airbags. Supposed to dodge bullets, not the safety equipment

    Mitsubishi actually used a really good airbag system but it's completely useless when the entire dashboard shifts completely out of the way from protecting the driver.

    What's actually scariest about this is that it represents crashing into a car of equal weight. So imagine if it crashed into say... a Honda Accord which are pretty dang common on the road.

    • @iihs-hldi
      @iihs-hldi  ปีที่แล้ว +47

      Correct. You may be interested in reviewing our driver death rates lists. Generally minicars have high rates of driver deaths, reflecting that most vehicles on the roads are larger. Smaller vehicles also have less forward structure to help in a single-vehicle crash.

    The 2017 improved to marginal. There aren't many vehicles that IIHS had for small overlap front test verification for side airbag coverage. The other car that i saw had the small overlap front test verification for side airbag coverage was the 2015-17 Camry.
