Frontal Impact Testing for Evaluating Occupant Protection Performance
A frontal impact test is conducted to evaluate the risk of injury to vehicle occupants in the event of a frontal collision.
Using crash test dummies and various sensors, the test measures the effects of impact on areas such as the head, chest, pelvis, and lower extremities, and evaluates the vehicle’s safety performance.
Main Evaluation Items
Frontal impact testing reproduces the impact generated when a vehicle is struck from the front, and verifies occupant protection performance.
It is conducted as part of safety assessment programs and regulatory testing in various countries, including Euro NCAP, JNCAP, and FMVSS.
- Head injury
- Chest deflection
- Pelvic and lower extremity loads
- Seat belt restraint performance
- Airbag protection performance
