Smart, Yaris & Fit Fare Poorly in Crash Tests

By Kemnitzer, Anderson, Barron, Ogilvie & Brewer

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety sent the Honda Fit crashing into a Honda Accord, the Smart ForTwo into a Mercedes C-Class and a Toyota Yaris into a Toyota Camry -- each at 40 miles per hour. The results indicate what safety you may be trading for efficiency when your mode of transportation shrinks.

The Smart For Two had ?extensive? damage into the area where the driver sits. The institute's findings indicate a human would have a high likelihood of sustaining head and leg injuries. The Yaris rated poor in the area of head and leg injuries as well. A driver of the Fit in a similar accident would have hit the steering wheel through the airbag in addition to sustaining leg injuries.
