Another Chinese Car Crash Test
Don't think that airbag is going to save you when the steering wheel moves into your face.

They must be incorporating some new high-tech crumple zones or something.

In response to the comment about the steering wheel in the face, I guess they haven't figured out the collapsing steering column yet.

The "A" pillar must have been constructed with tissue paper and cardboard.

This is pathetic. Thank goodness that Chinese cars will have to go through tests like these before they are available in the American market.

By the time they're available here, though, they could have advanced to the point of American/Japanese/European crash-worthiness.
