In the domestic automotive field, China Insurance Research Institute, as a quality inspection agency, continuously conducts related tests on major brand models through various tests to test the safety and quality of automobiles. Therefore, the test results of China Insurance Research Institute are highly concerned by many consumers. After all, the safety of automobiles is closely related to consumers, and consumers are naturally very concerned. Not long ago, China Insurance released the latest crash test results, including SAIC Volkswagen’s new Passat. However, there are many different voices on the Internet. For example, some people say that SAIC Volkswagen applied for this test voluntarily, and it must have made sufficient preparations. The test results are not convincing. Is the truth true? Today, the editor will reveal the truth for everyone.
First of all, as a company jointly established by several major insurance companies, China Insurance Research Institute represents the interests of insurance companies and its position is definitely neutral. Therefore, its test results will not tilt towards certain brands, let alone favor any party. Secondly, although SAIC Volkswagen applied for the crash test of the new Passat, the test vehicle must be purchased by the China Insurance Research Institute in the automobile market in accordance with the regulations. Therefore, the vehicle tested this time is not a "special car" sent by the manufacturer, and its test results are true and credible. So, how about the test results of the new Passat this time? Why did it cause such a big shock? With the following, let us take a look together.
A-pillar has no obvious deformation
Let’s start with the 25% frontal offset collision that consumers are most concerned about. From the above picture, it can be seen that the A-pillar of the new Passat has not deformed too much. The overall frame of the vehicle is still relatively good. complete. The dummy in the cabin does not seem to have received a strong impact, as can be seen from its sitting posture. The frame of the door is also relatively complete. If an accident does happen, then the chances of the occupants in the car will be greatly improved.
The airbag has excellent protection capabilities.
Secondly, judging from the red oil mark on the main driving airbag, the dummy's head is well protected, and the living space in the cockpit is relatively sufficient, which is very conducive to subsequent rescue work. Unfold. Overall, in this test, the performance of the new Passat is still good. The quality of
is trustworthy.
Another test result is also more important, that is, the side impact test. The test picture shows that the front and rear doors of the vehicle did not appear obvious deformation after the test, and the hinges and the body are firmly connected. This shows that the strength of the new Passat body is strong and the quality is still very reliable. Moreover, after the impact, there is basically no significant impact on the interior space of the car. The body absorbs the energy generated by the impact very well, and the occupants in the car can still obtain sufficient living space. The new Passat
has received a G score in the four major items for the safety of occupants in the car, safety of pedestrians outside the car, and auxiliary safety. Although it has received an A rating for crashworthiness and maintenance economy, it is not difficult to see through the pictures that other models only received M or P ratings in this test.
For consumers, testing institutions such as China Insurance Research Institute can promote the safety of automotive products and continuously improve the testing mechanism in the domestic automotive field to allow more consumers to benefit from it. This is how I think about SAIC Volkswagen’s initiative to submit for inspection. SAIC Volkswagen took the initiative to submit Passat for inspection to reassure Passat user groups and consumers about their products. I think this is what a responsible manufacturer should do. thing.
