Citroen 2CV GS GSA promotional video security
Автор LeSarthois Again fact, now I remember, the 2CV had to pass a crash test in 1980 in France where Citroën has added disc brakes before I do not know if the results are available somewhere, unless we know they were positive at the time.
Автор LeSarthois again since the Law on lightweight 2CV as passive safety, you are right, I am wrong with the 652cc engine fitted to the Citroen Visa I look at the test results as well, but I'm not surprised by these results, when the other hand, other cars have tried to be as robust and strong as possible, which in cars that are indeed less likely to deform on impact, but smashing the driver and passengers inside I remember that in this range, the Renault 4 and Trabant are safer than their appearance.

Автор SkyLlama of LeSarthois I'm not really surprised by this.
Назад Автор LeSarthois thedarkone2134 Believe it or not, but after Citroën stopped production, the insurance companies said that the lowest percentage of fatalities 2CV or not compared to other cars, and this is true in 50 s and 60 s, when it was like the only car on the road, the 90 s when the 2CV was still easy to spot, but was just a small part of the car population in France course, stupid accidents happen.

There is not much on the road, which is unsafe as 2CV The only structural strength of this car is part and is very low based The body is just for style and protection of time just trying to do not fail, then it would be fun.
Автор Rocktecho u know again what the car is more dangerous.
Назад Автор Threetails I saw another video in this series with a Renault Dauphine contemporary Unlike the Citroen, which held enough, the driver's compartment of the Dauphine completely collapsed, it was pretty ugly.
The seat is obviously too loose If you are equipped with seat belts, however, it is quite possible for both driver and passenger have survived, but would they not sore the next day.
A Citroen 2CV wasn t the safest car ever built, but equipped with seat belts, it's not the worst either.
Автор AndiJF Again CLip Very interesting My first car was a 2CV, and of course it was designed well before the modern body safety crash rules of 2CV was essentially a non-structural tent of thin metal, and the strength was two massive beams the entire length of the frame in the clip, you can see how the chassis gives barely, and passengers would probably have been thrown through the fabric roof, if not wearing a seatbelt, and subject to very strong deceleration if they were.
The damage of Автор FrightfulAccountant seems rather light, however, the driver and passenger nut probably survive the shock.
