The program was intended to establish the general safety performance of ultralight vehicles compared to the performance of larger vehicles. In the case of the Subaru and King Midget vehicles, it was desired that the performance of these vehicles be determined with an eye toward establishment of a set of standards for very small automobiles used in the American traffic environment. For the Volkswagen, the specific purpose of the head-on collision test was to determine the relative injury potential in a collision between this popular small car with an automobile representative of the majority of the vehicle population on the American highway.
