SUV or sedan, which is safer?

Preface: In today's life, many young people generally choose SUVs or sedans when buying cars, and these two models are the models favored by many young people. However, for young people when choosing an SUV or a sedan, when considering the two safety features, the first choice should be made according to the brand of the car.

Among them, Volkswagen brand cars belong to German cars, and German cars can reach the love of young people in all aspects. Especially for cars like the Shanghai Volkswagen brand, the reason why many people choose the Volkswagen brand is mainly because they think that Volkswagen's performance is the best and safest in all aspects. <>

When today's young people buy a car model, most of them first consider it according to their body type. Because considering that people who are overweight will look a little crowded when driving a car, and driving an SUV will look more atmospheric and high-grade as a whole. Today's models are cheap and the appearance of the car will become more and more domineering, especially for young men in the problem of driving, will hope that the car can be bigger and better, because thinking of a bigger will be able to show a different temperament.

Comparing the safety performance of sedans and SUVs, many young people will consider sedans first, because they think that the chassis of the sedan is low, and at the same time, the chassis is heavy, and such a sedan is also the best. However, when buying a car, try to choose a car with a price of about 100,000 yuan, so that there will be more guaranteed safety performance. Especially in the face of snowy days, the wheels will have some anti-lock function, which can greatly improve the safety performance in the car.

As a contemporary young person, when buying a car, they will choose nothing more than a sedan or SUV. Because the car that thinks of an SUV is taller and more spacious, but for those who are smaller, they have to choose a sedan. Because the appearance and economic practicality of the car will be stronger, the car is more suitable for family use.

I think the SUV is safer because the SUV is very good in all aspects and has a very good engine. It is ideal for long drives, and it also has a long service life.

I think the SUV is relatively safe, the SUV can be said to be unbeatable in terms of safety, and the safety chair is quite in place.

Cars will be safer. Because the chassis of the sedan is very low, it will be more stable on the road.

According to the survey data given by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety of the United States, the fatality rate of SUV models is 21%, and the fatality rate of sedans is 39%. From the perspective of mortality, the mortality rate of SUVs is nearly 50% lower than that of sedans, and in terms of data, the mortality rate of SUVs is lower, and it is indeed safer.

However, in fact, because sedans and SUVs are different in size, the factors that induce the death of occupants in the car are also different.

1. Better braking performance of the car: now many brands of SUV models and sedan models share the same platform, which is the same as the platform SUV and the car's braking system, but compared with the SUV, the mass of the car will be smaller, so the braking distance of the car is theoretically shorter than the SUV, so the car is safer in terms of braking.

2. The SUV body is large, and the effect of collapse and energy absorption is better: Compared with the sedan, the skeleton structure of the SUV is larger. In the event of a serious accident, the skeleton of an SUV collapses more than that of a sedan.

This makes it possible for the body structure to collapse, absorbing all the impact completely, protecting the occupants of the car from being squeezed.

3. The center of gravity of the sedan is lower and the handling is better: The chassis of the sedan is low, and the center of gravity will be lower, so the handling performance of the sedan is better than that of the SUV. Since the handling is better, the car's ability to avoid and react when encountering danger is naturally higher.

4. The skeleton structure of the SUV is thicker and can withstand greater impact: because of the large mass and large volume of the load-bearing body SUV, the corresponding skeleton should be larger. The ABC pillars are thicker than those of sedans, so that the sturdy structure can better protect the occupants in the event of an accident.

In summary, the comparison of SUV and sedan safety shows that sedan has higher active safety performance such as braking and handling; SUVs, on the other hand, have a larger and thicker body structure in the event of a collision, and have higher safety performance. It can only be said that the two models of sedans and SUVs are equal in terms of safety, and each has its own advantages. (Photo by photo:.)
