Default Unusual Test

No airbag, no test dummies?

Winshield deploys, but there isn't much body flex, especially at the top of the A pillar, most cars of this design vintage would have a serious gap form between this area and the door frame. It appears that the A8 body isn't found in a usual car.

If you shorten the URL and play around, you find they were studying aluminum vehicle structures.
