Abstract

Six van tests were conducted against a unique load-measuring barrier to study the crashworthiness and aggressivity of two typical models at speeds of 15, 25, and 30 mph. Two additional tests were conducted between each of the two van models and a typical fullsize passenger car. The results of these tests are being used by NHTSA to support extension of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 208 to vans, and to provide initial information for the future FMVSS 400 series standards.
