The 2012 Ford Focus crash tests have tipped the scales at over 12,000 times by Ford safety engineers in real world and virtual world tests to make sure it meets standards. With so many tests done for the 2012 Focus, testing procedures for future vehicle tests have received extensive testing procedures that will help in passing safety regulations in the future.
"Developing the Focus to meet the global safety standards has resulted in improved crash performance to help protect occupants in crashes," said Matt Niesluchowski, Focus safety manager. "Ford's safety team had a head start in working together around the world, which helped tremendously in ensuring the new Focus meets or exceeds a complex web of global safety regulations."
"We are using more computer simulations than ever to optimize the designs of all the components that make up a vehicle to help enhance safety," Niesluchowski said. "The complexity of crash tests, with hundreds of parts and systems interacting, still requires physical testing to validate those simulation results." more
