Apparently, the problem is restricted to situations when the driver is a “5th percentile female”, is not wearing their seat belt, and has a head-on collision, according to NHTSA. The 5th percentile female basically means the driver is female, about 5’0″, and weighs 110 lbs or less. So clearly, this would only affect a small percentage of potential i3 drivers. Under NHTSA testing, the unbelted 5th percentile female suffered certain neck injuries that were slightly higher than the acceptable limit when involved in certain types of head-on collisions. This issue only affects the driver, not any of the passengers.
Återstår att se om de även agerar utanför US.

stoppa försäljningen av en bilmodell för att några idioter väljer att inte använda den viktigaste och mest effektiva säkerhetsutrustningen i en bil, hallå eller!
