Results from two crash tests of the Renault Basic Research Vehicle (BRV) are presented. The tests were a left front oblique impact with a rigid 30-degree angled barrier at a speed of 42.5 MPH, and a 75-degree right side impact of the same BRV by the front of a production Renault R-12 automobile at a speed of 31.3 MPH. The objective of the tests was to evaluate the safety performance of the Renault BRV from the vehicle and dummy occupant responses measured in the crashes. It is concluded that the crashworthiness performance of the structural and occupant protection systems incorporated in the vehicle design as demonstrated in these tests confirmed the achievement of the crash safety objectives specified for the BRV development program.
