That's impressive! The door appears that it could open without any effort. And it's a beautiful designed car as well. Great job Renault!

@UHF43 well the seat scooted back could solve this one, but it's still not the best passenger airbag design. i agree that this is one safe car though. i just don't like the idea of being hit by an airbag in a crash.

[UHF43]

@whattheheck1000 Children under the age of ten should travel in child seats with the airbag OFF. I don't really think that airbag you point out hit anybody, or at least not worse than any other airbag out there. If it was dangerous in any way, EuroNcap would have warned about it. And this Mégane earned the best score ever 37/37!

[whattheheck1000]

i don't think so, and airbags shouldn't hit passengers as they may be children.

[UHF43]

@whattheheck1000 Oh yeah, I see what you ment was the passenger airbag, sorry. But I don't think it is aimed at balls at all. It is more likely to be aimed at the belly in order to prevent the body from rolling over. Just for kidding, Do test dummies have any sensor in their genital area? Now I'm wondering if they have.

[whattheheck1000]

this car has no passenger knee airbag, look at 0:17 - 0:19 that's the front airbag.

[UHF43]

I think it is the knee airbag, and it's supposed to do what it does in the video - protect your knees.

Renault = Safe Cars.
