This supercar passes crash tests even without an airbag

Modern cars are safer than ever, thanks to the presence of a number of systems and technologies designed both to prevent accidents and to minimize damage to occupants. In this regard, the company Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus has further increased the degree of safety on board its supercar SCG 004S, also passing the side impact test without triggering the side airbags.

The test passed is state that of the mobile / deformable barrier at 51 km / h, which foresees the impact of a “bullet” vehicle on the side of the car. The projectile vehicle is equipped with a deformable barrier in the front, which has the purpose of simulating a side impact on the passenger compartment in the event of a collision with the car. As mentioned above, the supercar from Glickenhaus succeeded in the feat without deploying the airbags; a truly enviable result, especially for a niche builder.

In this regard, the company believes it is the only car manufacturer in the world to have passed the test in these conditions. Below is the video of the crash test; even if the exam is passed, do not think that the car is easily reusable, so at first glance it seems that not so irrelevant interventions are necessary.

For the uninitiated, Glickenhaus SCG 004S is a supercar in the making arrival powered by a 650 horsepower V8 engine combined with a 6-speed manual gearbox and a full carbon fiber chassis. Price? Just under half a million dollars.
