Major emphasis has been placed on development of crash protection systems, low-speed vehicle damage control, pedestrian injury reduction and occupant protection. Respective systems were designed, developed and tested at the sub-system level. Once acceptable subsystem performance was established, test articles representing the complete crash protection features were fabricated and subjected to a number of system integration tests. Results to date are very encouraging. A high level of crash protection has been provided in a small family type vehicle. The overall design appears to be compatible with Phase I weight (2700 lbs.), producibility and cost targets. Further refinements of the design, anticipated for the subsequent effort, are discussed.
