ANCAP Crash Test: 1998 Toyota Corolla vs 2015 Toyota Corolla (Auris)

What happens when you crash a 1998 Corolla with its modern successor? See the clear results in this new video by the The Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP). The frontal offset test, which replicates a head-on crash, was conducted at 64km/h. “The older car sustained catastrophic structural failure with dummy readings showing an extremely high risk of serious head, chest and leg injury to the driver. It achieved a score of just out of 16 points – zero stars.” “In contrast, the current model performed very well with a five star level of protection offered, scoring out of 16 points,” said ANCAP Chief Executive Officer, James Goodwin.
