Smart car = Win. Chinese car = Epic fail.
In case you missed the memo and haven't indulged in the recent Youtube crashfests, check out two following clips.
Smart Car Crash
Chinese Car Crash
The Smart car (which is so tiny it makes a Mini Cooper look big) takes a massive head-on hit directly into a concrete barrier at 70 mph and remains amazingly intact and sound inside due to its rigid steel safety cell and the superb engineering that went into it. The occupant would have most likely been fine. Even the driver and passenger doors still functioned after the crash.
The Chinese car on the other hand (The Brilliance BS6) takes a lowly 40 mph head-on hit and crumples to pieces, literally. It's occupants would have most likely died on impact as one can see the A-pillar and dash directly meet the crash dummy's head.
