Safety of Toyota Cars

When you are driving a car on a road you must be 100% sure of the safety of the vehicle. The accidents is more and it's getting increased day by day that because of the complexity and  never ending ambitious needs & wants of the mankind.  

TOYOTA has been pioneer of safety interns of car manufactures in the world, I personally believe they have most modern techniques when it comes to safety.Cars are installed safety concepts at the very beginning of the development stage itself,

The following video recorded out of my visit to TOYOTA manufacturing facility at Nagoya, Japan by the year 2010 February,This is clearly demonstrates the safety concepts adopted to the TOYOTA cars with the technological manner,


The following key aspects can be illustrated by watching above video,
  •   When two vehicles collision each other the energy is absorbed by the main body frame by 20% when even the car travels 50 to 55 kmph.
  • The WIL (Whiplash Injury Lessening ) seats developed to safety of the driver and passengers when a collision.
  • To reduce the damage done to the outside people when a collision, the front body shape is designed in unique manner. 
  • A full human body model is developed for impact analysis and tests are conducted by dummies to check the impact to ribcage and with the airbag.
  • Live testing facility is established in All Weather Collision facility with length of 280m and width of 190m.







We'll have greater safety concepts from TOYOTA  in future to minimize the risk of damaging to personals greatly by a collision so the driving in a TOYOTA will be a more pleasure experience without any fear.
