Loads of new cars are earning poor ratings in this side impact test, Fords, Toyotas and even Volvos.
But why? How, with car safety higher than it’s ever been - are modern cars failing this test?
Well, I’ve done some digging to find out what’s going on here.

So, this all comes from some tests done by the IIHS, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety - they test loads of cars from the USA with the view to improve their overall safety and ultimately reduce road deaths.
They run so many interesting tests, things like crashes without seatbelts, overlap tests, what happens if you crash a new car into an old car and what happens if you crash into the underside of a lorry. The old car vs new car was particularly interesting, it was a 1959 Chevrolet Bel Air vs. 2009 Chevrolet Malibu. The difference was incredible.
And it’s these hundreds of tests that have allowed them to collate all of this information and shine some light on the safety of the cars that we are all buying.
