偶想買車不光是考慮車子是否完美.......而是喜好的問題........
還有重要的一點還是預算........

不知怎的....日本車的型就是不吸引偶.........

事實上有狠多單位在做車車安全的研究和測試........
包括把車車撞成廢鐵的撞擊測試...並且分成幾個A或幾顆星的等級.........



/

先前偶在TFC有一篇文提過肥駛他和小車的euro NCAP比較.........
http://www.fiesta.tw/viewtopic.php?t=106&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0



但是NCAP新版的報告最好到euro NCAP網站去看............裏面還有詳細的測試過程介紹........可以幫助偶棉了解是怎麼一回事........您就會知道其實汽車廣告商祭出五顆星也沒啥了不起的.......拿到五顆星的不只是亞里斯一台車而已.......而且2002年起euro NCAP還updated一些遊戲規則....



偶想若是汽車的安全性測試.......恐怕也不是只有歐洲EuroNCAP測試單位的報告可以查......人家愛把車車送給你撞爛爛的....何樂而不為?.....
如ANCAP.......JapNCAP...OSA...政府的機構如美國NHTSA(National Highway Traffic Safety Administration)..英國TRL..
各國也有各自的汽車監理單位....汽車安全的研發中心...等等.....

找找看

air bags的數量可能會增加安全性....不過多歸多...會不會剛剛好撞到氣囊上?..現在恐怕還需要"smart" air bags..........
進一步的車身安全性能與安全氣囊.......
可以從下面的網站去尋找.......

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Department of Transportation.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

SUMMARY: This NPRM would substantially upgrade the agency痴 side impact protection standard, especially by requiring protection in crashes with narrow objects and protection against head injuries in side impact crashes with both narrow objects and other vehicles.

First, it would upgrade the standard by requiring that all passenger vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or less protect front seat occupants against head, thoracic, abdominal and pelvic injuries in a vehicle-to-pole test simulating a vehicle痴 crashing sideways into narrow fixed objects like telephone poles and trees. To meet the head injury criteria in the pole test, vehicle manufacturers would likely need to install dynamically deploying side head protection systems, such as head air bags or inflatable air curtains that drop down from the roof line above the door frame. Air curtains can reduce head injuries in side crashes of passenger vehicles with poles and trees as well as side impacts from vehicles with high front ends. They also can help reduce partial and full ejections through side windows. Compliance with the pole test would be determined in two test configurations, one using a new, second-generation test dummy representing mid-size adult males and the other using a new test dummy representing small adult females.

Second, this NPRM would upgrade the standard痴 existing vehicle-to-vehicle test that requires protection of front and rear seat occupants against thoracic and pelvic injuries in a test that uses a moving deformable barrier to simulate a moving vehicle痴 being struck in the side by another moving vehicle. This NPRM would upgrade that test by requiring protection against head injuries. It would replace the mid-size male dummy currently used in that test with the new mid-size male dummy mentioned above and require compliance with the head, thoracic and pelvic injury criteria developed for the new dummy. It would also enhance protection for small adult occupants by adding the new small female test dummy mentioned above and requiring compliance with the injury criteria developed for that dummy. Thus, the number of test configurations would increase from one to two.
