I do find the test a little unfair, as the angle that the car hits the truck varies greatly depending on the height of the car, that's also why the sedans faired better in this than the suvs. I'm sure one can also design another crash scenario highlighting how SUVs fair better..

One thing for sure, the MVP is the truck cos it survived 30 cars crashing it. So buy the truck anyone?

The car varies but the truck is the only constant and you don't get to choose which truck and angle you crashed into, if it happens.  

SUV is usually safer in a head on crash than sedan but if rollover, high likelihood of mati. 

So buy what you like to enjoy motoring and stay away from bikes if safety is a major concern.  Drive a truck and it becomes a f..... chore.  😂

The lust ride...enuf room for a couple of bunny gals in there 😁

You can always request for a trailer, more than enough room for a couple of bunny gals, many many couples  actually. Even got enough room for DJ, disco lights, and alcohols, pay separately.

For that wowo, i am worry about whiplash.

Front passenger was swing forward before land back in the seat.

Worst car also ensure that passenger seated.

For Wowo, all their front seats had an anti-whiplash patented design known as WHIPS. There is a safety pin meant to break away upon impact so that the entire seat tilts backwards at an incline to reduce whiplash by cradling the spine and neck. The front headrests are also always fixed in a Wowo because of this reason, so its always in the correct position to protect your head and neck. 

Driver's head and neck are all "Good". Probably the WHIPS design does help to a certain extent. 

But front right passenger is "Marginal" due to higher forces received on the neck extension of the crash test dummy. I guess that impact on the right into the truck had weakened the B-pillar and possibly reduced the effect of the pre-tensioner of the seat belt located on the B-pillar. This pre-tensioner is supposed to pull you firmly back into the seat upon impact. So as you've observed, the front passenger was swung forward before landing back into seat, thus possibly impacting the neck still.

Facelift Model 3 is indeed very good, probably the only car in this test with driver and front passenger tested all green. It edges out the Volvo S60. This is however, to be expected as the Model 3 is a much newer platform compared to the S60. One would expect advances in bodyshell integrity and overall safety.

@Lethalstrike Thanks for the explanation on WHIP.

Watching the video again i can see the seat moved backward.
