Two Experimental Safety Vehicles (ESVs) manufactured by Nissan and Toyota of Japan were tested to evaluate the accident avoidance performance of each vehicle. The report contains a brief description of each vehicle and of each test performed as well as the results of the tests. The tests performed included: Braking performance -stopping distance, pedal force, emergency braking, brake efficiency, and parking brake tests; steering performance -transient and steady state yaw response; handling -lateral acceleration, sinusoidal steer, and trapezoidal steer tests; overturning immunity -drastic steer and brake tests. Each of the above results are presented and compared to the Japanese ESV design requirements.
