Abstract

This article presents results of a 0% offset, 0 degree, vehicle-to-vehicle impact test conducted for the National Highway Traffic Safey Administration and Vehicle Research and Test Center. The aim of the test was to evaluate the aggressiveness of the bullet vehicle, a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country extended wheelbase van, and the vehicle and occupant response of the target vehicle, a 2002 Ford Focus SE 4-door, in this vehicle-to-vehicle impact mode. Test procedures and a summary of the test results are provided.
