Recently, the "melon" in the entertainment industry has been constantly eating, and the "melon" in the automobile industry is also heavy. The "Clash of Kings" between Sagitar and Corolla is not only full of highlights, but also the conclusions drawn by the host Stunned. What everyone didn't expect was that they thought it would be a fair peak matchup, but it was full of slots from the beginning.
From the reader's point of view, the collision test spontaneously conducted by the media is worthy of praise. Although the degree of professionalism is different from that of the collision mechanism, it can still be controlled within a small range. The premise of all this is that the angle and attitude must be absolutely fair. Unexpectedly, in order to attract traffic and attention, there will be deviations in the choice of collision models.
Corolla and Sagitar were selected for the collision test conducted by the media. At the beginning of the program video, some professionals questioned that the two cars are not of the same level, and there are obvious differences in body size and quality. Among them, the body size of the Sagitar is 118mm longer than the Corolla, and the vehicle mass is also 45KG higher.
In addition, the prices and configurations of the two cars are also quite different. One is the 2021 Corolla 1.2T S-CVT Pioneer Edition, with a guide price of 119,800 yuan, and the other is the 2021 Sagitar 200TSI DSG Comfortable Smart Edition, with a guide price of 150,900 yuan. The program group explained that "you can't buy a low-profile Sagitar", but they don't know that this explanation is not accepted by the majority of netizens.
If the differences in levels and configurations are not injurious, then the standards of vehicle safety must be worth pondering. First, restore the entire collision process. Corolla and Sagitar both completed the collision at a speed of 64 km/h and an overlap rate of 50% (driver side). The program host evaluated the degree of deformation of the car body. It seems to simulate a real collision scene, but in the evaluation of professional institutions such as China Insurance Research Institute and China Automobile Research Institute, it not only includes 25% offset collisions, but also includes side collisions, roof strength, pedestrian protection and other metrics.
The collision of the cab alone does not fully reflect the safety of the vehicle, let alone the conclusion that "Sagitar beats Corolla" is still based on the naked eye. In this collision test between Corolla and Sagitar,The host only emphasized the degree of damage to the vehicle, and did not provide relevant data about the dummy in the car. The video only showed the host’s “guess” about the intrusion of the passenger compartment and the damage to the dummy’s legs, which is meaningless subjective judgment.
In addition, a collision with a relative speed of 120km/h or more will cause the vehicle to be scrapped. Therefore, when there is no data to prove, is it not "playing a hooligan" to judge safety based on the degree of vehicle damage? Moreover, the degree of collapse does not represent the safety of the people in the car.
It is worth noting that there are words "MQB vs. TNGA" in the program video. If you really understand the MQB platform and TNGA architecture, you will know that there is no comparison between the two. At the same time, Corolla does not represent the Japanese, nor does the Sagitar represent all the Germans. Therefore, it is worth pondering whether the program group is susceptible to generalization and confusion.
Safety has always been the top priority of automotive products. At present, every crash test is prudent, careful, rigorous and rigorous, but problems can still not be avoided, such as the abnormality of the airbag in the Haval H6 some time ago. Any deviation in parameters or debugging may cause different results. The collision test between Sagitar and Corolla has too many points to complain about from the process to the standard. The flow is there, but is it credible?
