Your hair won't fall off your head

For years, Volvo and Mercedes models have been regarded as vehicles that offer their passengers the highest level of protection in the event of a collision. Recently, French cars Renault have joined the leaders.

For years, Volvo and Mercedes models have been regarded as vehicles that offer their passengers the highest level of protection in the event of a collision. Recently, French Renault cars have entered the group of the safest cars in the world.

Must be a modern car above all safe

Five stars

The espace IV achieved the best result ever in Euro NCAP, Megane II, Scenic II, Laguna and Vel Satis crash tests with a five-star rating - few cars on the market can achieve such a good result.

Renault's achievements are, of course, not accidental. The French company has been conducting intensive research for more than 50 years to develop the safest cars possible. Renault annually spends more than 100 million euros for these purposes. Many experts learn not only from crash tests, but also collect information based on real accidents. A thorough analysis of the course of the collision, damage to the car and injuries received by its passengers, allows specialists to find the weak points of the car, and then refine the design of the car and adjust the appropriate safety systems to it.

Immediate response

When buying a car, we usually do not realize how advanced technology is hidden behind seemingly simple elements. Even in the event of a collision with a strong impact, it only takes a few thousandths of a second for the electronic module to analyze the accident and activate the entire security system in real time. The pressure in the airbags and the tension of the seat belts are adapted to the physique of the passengers, providing them with optimal protection.

Although after an accident the car usually looks like a tin can accidentally crushed, in reality this does not mean anything - thanks to the use of digital modeling, engineers accurately determined the mass distribution and programmed the deformation of the body at the design stage of the car. vehicle during a collision.
