According to the head of Rosstandart Anton Shalaev, “this idea is not forgotten”: on the contrary, it is especially relevant, since a lot of players have come to the Russian car market whose safety needs to be evaluated. Therefore, it is necessary to recreate the national standard RUNCAP, which was developed by the joint forces of “Autoreviation”, us, Madi and Rosstandart.
According to Shalaev, there are all the necessary methodological documents for the revival of the National Runcap crash test system. Only “Good Volya” remained in the system of not only domestic manufacturers, but also foreign ones who produce their products on Russian roads.
Runcap was going to launch five years ago: in 2019, they had already begun to prepare the first procedures and methods for conducting crash tests according to this methodology. However, the plans were violated by the pandemic, and then changes in the Russian car market due to the departure of Western stamps.
AvtoVAZ began to test the Chinese sedan: perhaps this is the future Xcite crossover Exlantix, which is waiting in Russia, perfectly coped with the Chergo Tiggo 4 crash test in the crash tests according to the Australian methodology
The testing methodology, suitable specifically for Russian conditions, was developed on the basis of an accident statistics. The need to create its own standard was also dictated by the features of machines for Russia, which were often different from the equipment from the “global”. In order to save them, for example, they equipped a smaller number of airbags and electronic systems.
In March, the Xiaomi Su7 electrician was recognized as the safest car of China: it earned five stars, and its average rating was 93.5 percent. This is 8.7 percent higher than the average result of cars checked according to the standard of 2024. However, a few days later he fell into the first mortal accident, which entailed the death of three people. The head of Xiaomi, against the backdrop of a fall in shares, promised to “not dodge” from the investigation and in every possible way to assist him. According to preliminary data, before the accident, the car rode on its own in Navigate on Autopilot mode.
