jack 3 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 It's amazing how these new cars can take a serious whack and driver safety is not that comprimised compared to what would have happened to vehicles produced just a few years ago. Link to post Share on other sites
Kam 1 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Recently they have come up with the idea of cars crunching on impact. Link to post Share on other sites
Alyse 0 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Could you imagine hitting a car that was so solid only your body was the thing moving and not the vehicle? Its crazy to think that was considered safe! Link to post Share on other sites
LukeC 3 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Things sure have come a long way. We arent in flying cars yet but these ones coming out now sure are raising the safety bar. Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky 0 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Recently they have come up with the idea of cars crunching on impact. The ideology is that the car will crumple as it absorbs the energy rather than you absorbing the energy. Some of today's crashes look twisted and fatel, but it's just the car crushing in upon itself and it's crumple zones. Link to post Share on other sites
Alyse 0 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 LukeC I hope we get to flying cars soon but until then we will have to stay with the most reliable and safe Chevy Spark! Link to post Share on other sites

LukeC 3 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 So the Spark really passes the safety test Alyse? Link to post Share on other sites
AlexBarsan 10 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 So the Spark really passes the safety test Alyse? ... with 4 stars, just 1 point minus to make' it 5 stars, when they first did the crashing test in Europe the car was missing the traction control and stability control, now with all this electronic help it will pas with 5 stars no doubt.

Sparklez 0 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Nice setup you have there. By the way, how's the performance of the Bilstein shocks? Would like to know your feedback when you installed it on your spark. Link to post Share on other sites
