AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/17 Report--

Recently, some netizens uploaded a video about the airbag of the ideal ONE rear-end semi-trailer not popping open. According to the video content, the front face of the blue ideal ONE was seriously damaged, the front of the driver's side was also seriously damaged, the net was damaged, the front window glass was cracked, the tires and wheels were separated, and the headlights were missing.

According to the owner, the car was driving at a speed of 40 yards at the time of the accident and the airbag did not eject after it rear-ended a semi-trailer.

Some netizens joked that the broken shaft did not eject the airbag, so it must have been the wrong impact angle and perfectly avoided the sensor. For the accident airbag did not pop, many people are confused, some netizens said that in such a more serious accident state, the airbag should pop up. As of press time, there has been no further news about the cause of the accident, and ideal Motor has not responded to this.

However, a similar situation occurred last year when the ideal ONE did not eject the airbag. In September and October 2020, two ideal ONE owners had serious traffic accidents, and the airbags of the vehicles did not eject. According to previous media reports, an ideal ONE had a serious rear-end collision with a truck on September 22, 2020. the owner said: due to the sudden parallel of the car in front, it was too late to brake on the highway. The rear part of the container collided with the A-pillar, resulting in a complete fracture of the A-pillar, but none of the complete airbags in the car ejected. Then the ideal car said that the impact area was not a "key point" and that the guardrail on one side of the truck in the accident was not standard, so that the collision sensor could not detect the collision signal at the time of the accident, so the airbag did not eject.

In October 2020, another netizen revealed on the Internet that an ideal ONE rear-ended with a semitrailer truck at 1761 kilometers of the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, causing damage to two cars. According to the owner, the driving assistance function was turned on at the time of the accident, with a speed of 120 kilometers per hour and a relative speed of about 30 kilometers per hour with the car in front. There was a rear-end collision. After the collision, the airbag in the car did not eject. Fortunately, no occupants were injured in the car. Then the owner of the car involved contacted the staff of ideal car. For cases where the airbag does not eject, the ideal car says that the impact area is not a "point".

On Feb. 8 this year, C-NCAP released the evaluation results of the first batch of vehicle crash tests in 2021. Ideal ONE got a high score in this crash test, specific to four small items. Ideal ONE scored 91.24% in complete frontal collision test, 92.49% in frontal 40% crash test, 100% in side impact test and 91.4% in whipping test. It is worth noting that only airbags pop up in the front row of the ideal ONE in the collision.

The safety problem should not be underestimated, although it is possible that the airbag trigger conditions will not be met, but car companies should also pay attention to this problem. For car owners, if the airbag does not eject after the accident, you can also require the car company or 4S store to test the vehicle and issue a relevant written test report. If the trigger condition is not met, a detailed explanation and explanation must be made.
