Draft new Regulation on uniform provisions concerning the approval of passenger cars with regard to the protection of the occupants in the event of a frontal collision with focus on the restraint system

In order to increase protection for older occupants, the Frontal Impact informal group proposes to decrease the permissible chest deflection for the 50th percentile Hybrid III dummy to 42 mm from the current 50 mm. (This change is proposed in concert with the development of a new frontal impact regulation focused on occupant restraint systems.)

Agenda for the Frontal Impact group session intended to finalize the text of the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation 94.

The 03 series of amendments aim to improve protection of older vehicle occupants in the event of frontal collisions by limiting the chest deflection of the In parallel with the Hybrid III dummy to 42 mm (from the current 50 mm) in the offset deformable barrier test. This series of amendments complements the proposal for a new frontal impact regulation focus on the occupant restraint system based on a full width barrier test.
