2010-11 body crash test footage

Impressive. Windshield did not break, door did not pop open and I bet would unlatch and open still. 40mph head on.



Guy in the back would be having a really bad day.



Seat airbag saved that dummies life ..........

Those new 'Stangs did pretty good. I wonder why my window sticker says that all crashes except for rollover are "unrated." FYI, the rollover rating is 5 stars.

Wow, we've sure come a long way from the fox body cars!

Watch the top of the A-pillar right at the end of the video. And I'll bet the windshield did break, you just can't see the cracks at that angle.

Still impressive. That same hit in anything '04 and older and it would have made a mess of the car.

Cool find...I was wondering how big that seat airbag was.

Yeah but did you see the drivers seat move? That would be an incredibly rough ride under your ass. It almost looks as if the rear nuts gave way or the recliner unlocked.

In which video? In the first one it moves a very minimal amount compared to the dummy-in the second one, I'd prefer that the seat moves away from the impact as it does rather than keeping me pinned closer to the g-forces of the impact. I don't see any problem with the driver's seat performance in those videos.
