FRONTAL OFFSET TEST

OVERALL EVALUATION: Good
Structure/safety cage Injury measures Restraints/dummy kinematics

Good Good Good Good Acceptable Good

Important: Frontal crash test ratings can be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.
Test details:

The BMW 5 series was redesigned for the 2004 model year.

Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement well controlled. During rebound, the dummy's head hit the roof rail.

Injury measures — Measures taken from the head, neck, chest, and left leg indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. Forces on the right tibia indicate that injuries to the lower leg would be possible. Head acceleration from the roof rail hit was low.

    that would be a combination of seat belt and airbag. Anyways it's a small concern if you travel in 70mph/110kph.

    one of the safer. You can see that the front is severly demolished but the cabin is more or less intact, which is good.

    Good result the force of impact stopped before the cabin, you can see the engine going under the car as well at 0:33, I bet the cabin was left intact, German technology the car gets fucked up but the passenger cabin stays intact like a F1 car..

    Well i know of airbags burning the skin on your arms due to speed they deploy at and the hot gases but not that of your face on a frontal impact....On a side impact yes that could happen all depends on where your head is position on impact can bruise your right or left side of your face..

  • All dual-stage ...

    All dual-stage airbags have two connectors, and single stage airbags have one connector and it is basically for different impact speed. For low speed crshes the sirbag would deploy in one stage not fully deploying to to injure the passenger plus the airbag comes out slower and at high speed the airbags deploys with all the force to protect the passengers. It basically depends on speed thats all.
