Decoding China Insurance Research Institute’s crash test: in-depth analysis of SUV safety performance and evidence of the rise of domestic products
Among the various key events in the automobile industry in the past year, the crash test results conducted by China Insurance Research Institute (C-IASI) have undoubtedly provided consumers with a very high reference value for car purchase basis.
First of all, we focus on the car called FAW Toyota Yize, which is based on a brand-new thing called TNGA architecture. Among the six tests conducted by China Insurance Research Institute, it achieved five excellent results and one good result. Especially in the item called "crashworthiness and maintenance economy" where most models have shortcomings, it received a "good" rating and set a new record for testing more than 40 vehicles at that time. This is because it relies on the new GOA body technology of the TNGA architecture . This technology uses a large amount of ultra-high-strength steel and carries out reasonable energy-absorbing structural design to ensure that the passenger compartment can still maintain its intact condition under the harsh working conditions of a frontal 25% offset collision. However, Beijing Benz GLC, as a representative of luxury brands, also achieved excellent (G) results in core safety items such as frontal 25% offset collision, side collision and roof strength. Looking at the aerial view of the test, after its body was hit violently, the cockpit did not show obvious deformation, which fully proves that the German luxury brand has a deep accumulation in passive safety design.
However, in this test, the most eye-catching highlight is undoubtedly the collective development of domestic brands that have broken through the siege. The final results of the relevant tests of SAIC Roewe RX5 MAX are very representative. Except for an item called "Crashworthiness and Maintenance Economy", where the score is not ideal due to the relatively high cost of repairing parts, the test results for all core safety items involving the safety of occupants in the car and the safety of pedestrians outside the car are all excellent. After it received the highest star rating in C-NCAP, it also achieved excellent (G) results in all projects in the more stringent China Insurance Research Institute test without any suspense.
It has received excellent evaluations in the vehicle occupant safety index, a core item related to casualties, and it has also received excellent evaluations in the outside vehicle pedestrian safety index, a core item related to casualties. This is closely related to its continuous investment in the field of urban safety systems over the years, and its continuous investment in the field of cage safety bodies with extremely high amounts of boron steel over the years. Even though it has received unsatisfactory and poor reviews in the so-called "crashworthiness and maintenance economy", this is mostly due to the high maintenance costs of luxury brand parts, but this cannot cover up its excellent design in terms of ensuring life safety. The "Changan CS75 PLUS", also known as a "domestic premium product", has become the trump card in terms of sales with its excellent comprehensive product strength since its launch. In this crash test, except for the mediocre repair economy, all other items received excellent ratings, and the results actually exceeded some joint venture models that also participated in the test.
At first, cost was the priority, but now, safety is regarded as the primary priority of products, and independent brands are experiencing a profound "value return."
