Euro NCAP | Mercedes E-Class | 2009 | ESC test

http://euroncap.com/results/escperf.aspx
Euro NCAP carried out sine-with-dwell tests according to the ESC GTR global technical regulation, which is based on the US regulation FMVSS126. The testwere completed on all cars whose results were released in 2009. For cars that allowed the ESC system to be switched off, tests were carried out with ESC ON and OFF. Cars were tested by undergoing multiple runs, sometimes as much as 60 per car, each time increasing the steering angle and input. The clip shows the first ESC off test where the car span out. The ESC on test is the one with the same steering input.

@Andrea1491to this test is made to control ESC (electronic stability control) if it would be off you would see the car drifting around without control.

Hay que poner el video completo con y sin control para ver el comportamiento en todos los casos. ¿Cómo podremos fiarnos de estos tests cuando ya manipulan todo a su antojo?
