@futuremddsp who's on here saying it's fake? i can't believe that. why would they spend time and money making up a "fake" test? for what reason? it's amazing how some ppl can be so ignorant. i never realized the high percentage of ignorance until i got on the internet....
GM does own German brand Opel. They are trying to get rid of it though. Saturn Aura is just an American translation of Opel Vectra. There are some minor changes in the rear end and interior
andersprada83 is right cause Opel hads/Had this design called the Opel Astra all GM did was remove the Opel badges and put a saturn badge and called it a Aura
actually you two are wrong, this car belong the the "GM Epsilon" platform family, which as it sates in the name is....GM. This platform wasn't taken from any country, it is a complete redesign of the old N and GM2900. This means that GM made the platform, then put it to use in a bunch of subdivisions. GM Europe wasn't given charge of Epsilon till 2005, after it had already been developed. Future decisions in reference to Epsilon will be "German" but really GM.

i think your wrong buddy because GM dosnt own Opel. Opel is a stand alone car company and they had this design (Platform) before GM ever took this design. like i said all GM did was slap a Saturn Badge and called it a Aura. the saturn has the same design specs as the Opel Astra. they also did the same with the Saturn Astra hatchback also was an Opel Astra Hatchback. GM has nothing to do with Opel.
you're actually seriously mistaking. GM owns Opel, Opel is a subsidiary of GM. You're also wrong about the Astra/Aura correlation. This Aura is on the "GM Epsilon Platform", which is shared with Fiat Croma Mk2, Cadillac BLS, Chevrolet Malibu, Opel Signum, and Saab 9-3 Mk2. I don't know where you got your information but you should do more research on a subject before you call someone out. Maybe you should read my well written comment that you responded to, again. Why didn't you understand?
strange test. The tires stop at the same location but since the G6 has a longer nose it suffers more damage while the cable pulls the saturn back reducing the damage. If you put in a car with no nose it wouldn't crash at all so it's kind of a stupid way to setup a test
If it that was the case, why does the suspension compress, and rebound on it's way backwards after impact? You don't have to look too closely to see that it is clearly a legit crash test.
it didnt fucking disappear look at the grill and the spacing shit head its clearly different then before it hit... are you like a 2 year old or some shit?
The G6 is made in Lake Orion, Michigan along with half of the Malibu's and the other half of Malibu's and Saturn Aura's are made in Kansas City Kansas
nah dude, it's not rewound. You can clearly see the "rebound" from the hit. The energy from the crash has to go somewhere and in this cars you see it travel through the car on bounce back-this wouldn't be see if it was simply...rewound.
that has nothing to do with it, the bumper on the g6 is way too low, i guarantee if the test bumper where about and inch lower, the G6 would have come out as good as the Aura
oh damn. Saturn get's wrecked when it meet the pillar!!!! :'(

This isnt a "crash test", its a small parking accident test.
Tabby266 2 years ago
for those of you saying that the saturn was a fake test your seriously mistaken.
If you look at the cables under the front bumper you see them jolt after the impact.
Also if you watch the height at which the saturn enters, it is higher than when it leaves and then bounces up to the n ormal height
watch it again closely
trust me the IIHS ran this test and they just test for Insurance rates on car crashes they dont "fake" their tests

The SATURN ASTRA is the Opel ASTRA moron. The Aura is similar to the Opel Vectra, but based on the modified G6/Malibu platform the US uses.

Pontiac has more of a wedged shape, so the bar makes the car squat. Saturns front end is flatter.
