First engine bay shots of the new Chevy Camaro
#256
I expect much will be done with new materials not used before due to cost.
But in the end cars will fast the requiremnts but not feel as solid as some in the past. Lets face it the Charger even over 4,000 points is not as solid of a feeing car as a 38 Chevy. The thickness of the steel is staggering. But the Charger is still a safe solid car.
Even the Smart car is solid enought to not implode hitting a concrete barrier at 70 MPH. The car remaind in tact. Now on the other hand no one would have lived with the G force it went through since there is no crush space.
The challange is to build a strong, crushable car that is light weight. It also must be affordable and repairable.
Now if yout take out the Affordable and repairable it makes it so much easier but those two things are what make it a real challange.

Mazda would have to prove their safety for me to consider one of their vehicles was all I was saying...
