Okay. It's not the only reason we buy Acura, but this is a big part of it.
It's hard to believe, looking at that, but this is exactly the result we want to see.
It is a very severe crash, but there is almost zero intrusion into the cage and the car was successful in reducing the G-force brain injury sufficiently enough to be able to say that you would walk out of that crash asking what happened.
:-)
The smaller wheels used on the Accord crash test made it even better than this TLX. In the TLX there is a chance the driver might've had a broken left ankle, and in the identical chassis Accord there was almost zero chance of that, 100% due to the smaller wheel size on the Accord.
