March 24 09 NEW roof strength rollover rating system Forester does well the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is launching a new rating system for roof strength to help consumers pick vehicles that will help protect in rollover accidents Twelve small SUVs are the first to be put to the test only 4 win best good note Volkswagen Tiguan has the strongest rated roof, and the Kia Sportage has the weakest among the 2008-09 models evaluated This new scoring system is based on Institute research showing that occupants in rollover crashes benefit from stronger rated vehicles roofs property must have a roof that is two times stronger than the federal minimum safety standards require the Tiguan, Subaru Forester, Honda element and Jeep Patriot earn good ratings Suzuki grand Vitara, Chevrolet Equinox, Toyota RAV4, Nissan Rogue and Mitsubishi Outlander are rated acceptable Roofs on the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape are marginal, and the Kia's is low We expect that our strength on the roof test will drive improved protection rollover accident in the same way our frontal offset impact and consumer test programs side led to better protection in these kinds of accidents, said President Adrian Lund Institute How roofs are evaluated in the roof strength test of the Institute, a plate metal is pushed against one side of a roof at a constant speed to obtain a good shelf, the roof must resist a force 4 times the vehicle weight before reaching 5 inches crushing This is called a report resistance- weight for an acceptable rating, the minimum required strength-weight ratio is March 25 a marginal note setting is 2 5 While less is poor cars were built to meet the m I standard roof crush, federal safety standard motor vehicle 216, since 1973, the rule was extended in 1994 to include all vehicles up to a gross weight of 6000 pounds of many SUVs and pickups are heavier, so they're exempt in 2005, the government proposed an update to cover these vehi cles more and require roofs on all passenger vehicles to have a strength to weight ratio of 2: 5 There many vehicles already meet this ratio and would gain only a marginal rating in the new stress test of the Institute's roof a final rule is still pending over.

April 22, 10 EyeSight Tokyo drive system - Fuji, today announced that it has completed the development of the new view, unique driving Subaru assistance system successfully using the technology of the stereo camera Based the current EyeSight system, the safety device has been updated with new features to improve driving assist functions, automatic braking management system and ease the EyeSight is the first device to use stereo camera technology to detect the presence of pedestrians and cyclists Since its first introduction in May 2008, the features available on this system were highly appreciated; they included pre-collision braking control and all-speed range adaptive cruise control tracking function The new EyeSight has an advanced feature, safer pre-crash stops which control braking the vehicle upon detecting risk frontal collision, thereby avoiding the collision or reduce collision damage to the All-speed range system adaptive cruise control has also been refined It is now able to stop the car if the vehicle in front decelerates or stop unexpectedly new features not only extend the range of security assistance provided to the driver, but also reduce the risks normally associated with driving in specific circumstances, especially in slow traffic or crowded.
pre-crash braking control when the vehicle approaches or very close to a car or an object in front of it, triggers an alarm to warn the driver of a risk of potential collision If the speed difference between the driver's vehicle and the vehicle front is less than 30 km h, and there is no action from the driver to slow down or stop the vehicle, the system automatically slows the car or stop the car to avoid a collision or reduce collision damage If the speed difference between the two moving vehicles is above 30km h, the system will automatically reduce the vehicle speed, which reduces the risk of collision or pre-crash collision damage assistance braking system when there is a potential risk of a frontal collision, the system will also identify sudden braking by the driver if it is detected, it automatically activates the Sh No assistance to pre-crash braking, avoiding a collision or reduce collision damage Adaptive cruise control with all the speed functio tracking distance n It allows the cruising vehicle safely on a motorway, keeping the vehicle at a safety distance to the vehicle in front of slow traffic or traffic jams, the automatic emergency braking function - stopping of the vehicle and maintain the still until the vehicle starts moving forward again - was much improved compared to the current system efficiency of these functions may be affected by the surface of the abnormal road, violent or extreme weather events and are subject to the condition of the vehicle the new driver assistance system actively manages various functions Eyesight security and further enhances Subaru drivers a safe driving experience all round the s ystem will be available on Legacy models of mid-May in Japan.
