AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/01 Report--

According to foreign media reports, the crash test results of the 2019 Ford Ranger standard five-seater version released by the American Highway Safety Insurance Association (IIHS) show that, except for the headlight test rating as "qualified", the crashworthiness of the other aspects are better than Nissan, Chevrolet and GM medium-sized pickup trucks, Toyota Tacoma and other models. However, it is a pity that the headlamp score was only on the verge of passing Marginal, and did not have the chance to win the fetyPick award of To Peugeot Citroen Group.

The new Ranger, which went on sale in the US in January, was rated "excellent" in driving frontal offset cell impact, front offset impact, side offset impact, roof strength test and headrest impact test, according to IIHS. The test showed that passengers in the co-driver's front deviation area were at risk of injury to the right lower limb, so some of the tests were rated "good", second only to "excellent". (in the IIHS rating, excellent > good > qualified > unqualified)

In addition, the Ranger standard frontal collision avoidance system performs best in tests, preventing crashes at 12 mph (about 19km/h) and an average deceleration of up to 24 mph (about 39km/h) at 25 mph (about 40km/h). However, due to the headlight rating has just been "qualified", Ranger unfortunately dropped out of the IIHS "Best Safety performance Award".

By contrast, of the five tests in which Ranger was awarded an "excellent" rating, the 2019 two-seat cab Chevrolet Colorado and GM Canyon also received an "excellent" rating, but just "passed" in the co-driver's frontal deviation test, "failed" in the headlight test, and received a "primary" rating in the optional configuration frontal collision avoidance system test. Toyota's Tacoma scores are similar to those of Ford's Ranger in all tests. (in the IIHS rating, top > senior > junior)

Ford sold 22917 Ranger vehicles in the first five months of this year, including 7748 in May, according to the Automotive News data Center.

Ford Ranger offers three kinds of headlamp specifications to choose from, but all the test results are not very satisfactory, only get Marginal pass evaluation, so miss the opportunity to get To Peugeot Citroen Group fetyPick, if this project can get at least Acceptable, you can successfully become one of IIHS's latest To Peugeot Citroen Group fetyPick.
