  • the 2009-present Toyota Matrix is assembled in

    Cambridge, Ontario, Canada

    the 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe was assembled in

    Fremont, California, United States

  • I dont know how much technical information you have. This is a standard test at a standard speed and the results, say technically, are amazing. All crashes have been designed to eliminate the impact energy while reducing the risk of the human life. You should think how much damage a dummy would receive in case of a collision. Moreover, the technical side is concern about the movement of engine, crushes in the driver and passengers space, dashboards the roof and pillars. All were amazing.

  • also that was just at 35MPH!!! imagine at 50 wich is the slowest you could drive on a highway! and people usually drive at 60-65mph on a 55mph zone or 70-80mph on a 65mph zone.......so just imagine the catastrophe... but I want one so bad!!!! with the 2.4l engine! or a 2003+ honda accord v6! I would be so happy!

  • @persiantaha yeah and look how much it crushed! if they do this test but only hitting half of the front end instead of the whole width, it would had crushed almost .75% deeper!

  • @TCreatorO This is the new Matrix! 

  • and thats the whole width test, try to find the half frontal test, I saw an accident of a matrix that hit a pole doing 50 mph and if there would had been a passanger it would had amputated its legs with th dashboard!. I wanmt a matrix but I would recomend a rollcage 1st

  • Is it me or did the driver airbag deflate rather soon?

  • Good safety.

  • 0:42 is really cool, nice upload
