It is all about cars. Back in the 80s and 90s journalists could write pages and pages about cars and their specifications. This car has this type of suspension, that car has different. This one is with brake discs, and this one is with drums. Wow new engine with variable timing just came out...and so on, and so on.
Well those times are gone. These days it all comes down to design. All cars are basically the same. They share engines, suspension parts, electrics, electronics etc. With electric cars parts are shared even more.
So, we are going to skip all those boring talk about itsy bitsy details and show you biggest differences between cars. Yes their design. You will see differences that you will notice when you look them on the street and feel when you sit in them.
Is no one is wondering where the engine block will end up after the front forward section of the vehicle and the wheels get pushed in to within 5 inch of the windshield? wells they end up against your lower torso and legs.They didn't show anything that occurred on the inside of the vehicle, so they clearly did not want people to see it. But the center dash broke apart (0.21and 0.51), which means the engine block came through the firewall. So I'm guessing it wouldn't be safe on the highway or roads with speeds over 55mph. But driving on 30mph streets should fine. But please remember that if the firewall caves in at 37mph impact, think about what a 60mph impact would do the entire dash. Also, you much double the speed impact for ahead on collisions. So a 30mph impact would be a 60mph impact. Weighting only 1300#ibs, a 4000 #lbs Honda Fit will push that engine block right onto your lap. Still, even know this I still want one. But I'm older, all the kids are long since moved out, my good years are long long behind me. With the cost of cars now, and else everything sky rocking way up beyond my little-pension, I just think it would nice to save bit on gas. Whats a firewall caving in compared with what i'll save on gas.
Good to know. My son just bought a brand new TAFT yesterday and has taken everyone for a drive into Tokyo today. It7s his first car so he's really excited .
John 3 16-21! 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
Hey, thanks for the comment. I'm in doubt if I should start making them again with slight changes. I stopped because you tube didn't want to monetize my channel even if I fulfiled the requirements. So I stopped due to lack of time to do it for free. You know, I have to pay my bills so my day job is a priority. I am thinking of a way to make it what they want but to avoid doing another talk show channel. Simplicity was my idea at the beginning.
I drove a brand new Nissan roox all around Tokyo last summer and I felt safe driving it. Even in congested Tokyo traffic. Total of 3 adults and a bunch of luggage trekking all around Mount Fuji area, the van had decent power up and down hills. We’ll be back in Japan for another 2 weeks soon and we’ll be renting another roox. ❤
Western cars also kill people more often because they're way too big, a normal car in America getting hit by a giant truck or SUV you can say goodbye to your health if you're in that small vehicle
The bmw has an ugly exterior whilst the new S class looks similar to a Mercedes Benz C class with cheap quality materials. Embarrassing for both but bmw may win the interior looks and exterior the Benz wins.
They're safe enough. Most people in America is just doctrined to believe bigger cars are safer, and not the quality of the build that dictates safety, which leads to imbalanced crash compatibility and increased pedestrian deaths and driving accidents
Safety is clearly inferior to regular cars. On January 19th of this year, a Kei car was involved in a rear-end collision between two trucks on a highway in Kobe, Japan, compressing the car to literally 30 centimeters and killing two people. We must not forget that light vehicles are originally intended to be driven relatively slowly in Japanese cities.
the A pillar is crushing @ 64km/h,40% deformable barrier which is worse than 2000s cars, and these tests are testing how rigid the chassis would be depending its weight if you crash even with a nissan versa at both 60km/h, it could lead to death it is not safe physically, but the scandals and japanese manufacturer's corruption made it much more dangerous.
Both cars do remarkably well in the front-end collisions, particularly considering their size - which goes to show that it is definitely possible to make a very little car safe.
The newer the kei car, the higher its safety standards tend to be. In Japan, kei cars are primarily used on slower roads in urban or rural areas, where the speed limit is typically below 60km/h and the driving range is usually around 10 to 20 kilometers. On the other hand, on roads with speed limits of 30~40km/h or less and widths of under 4 meters, driving a large vehicle can be extremely tiring. Kei cars are well-suited for such roads. For daily commuting or delivery services in such environments, kei cars are well-suited. They are not often used on highways. The safety of kei cars in single-vehicle accidents on highways is ensured. However, if, for example, over 20-ton truck were to collide with them, even large vehicles would be at risk, and a kei car would stand no chance. Japanese drivers are also aware that kei cars can be dangerous on highways, so it is uncommon for them to drive on highways for extended periods in these vehicles. If highway driving is frequent, it is natural to choose a vehicle in a class above, such as the Toyota Yaris or larger. The traffic environment in the UK is likely similar to Japan, so exporting kei cars there should not pose any issues. However, kei cars are not well-suited for highways in countries like the United States or Germany.
americans and most other westerners just want fat cars to match themselves. that's all. They wanna never pay attention so that when they hit stuff "they'll win". I literally heard this exact argument in america coming from old and young people alike. old 1990s Kei cars are for people of a higher intellect, who know to share the road and drive responsibly without any driver aid devices or distractions. the new ones are greater still, except for direct injection which is problematic in such a small engine for maintenance and health problems of the occupants. they never really got less than 45-55 MPG unless speeding. the newer ones don't either.
Love this music very beautiful?

I really wish they made more sub-compact hatchback and coupe cars in the USA, especially the fun ones with 5 or 6 speed manual, and a bit more power than 64hp as it is in JP thanks to gentleman's agreement, which is enough for their roads, but not for ours.
De perfil o de lado el Bmw se ve mejor, pero def frente no me convence, la parte trasera del A8 es mas bella, el interoior el A8 se ve mas elegante y cuando venga ell A9, dejara.a BMW bien atras
Honda N Van smart driving technologies will auto correct steering when you stray from the lane you are driving, apply brakes when clearance are not ample enough while forward driving and its auto like tesla mode saves me twice from sustaining minor impact. Tks Honda for designing such wonderful system.❤
@@thecasual9258correct me if im wrong. Honda sensing technology i believed. True as what you said, almost all newer car has the similar tech but was called in different name. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@aussierheinhardt4390 yeah Japanese brands and their technologies are fascinating, you know the first electric vehicle was Toyota prius and was already made in 1995 way before than Tesla

They are really good now, not as in the old days where you had 0.75mm of sheet metal between your tonails and whatever you head on collided with. A friend of mine said "They should make the car body out of cardboard, then they just need to hose it away with water at the morgue" and it was kind of true....
