CRASH TESTS FIND NEW IBISHU COVET SEDAN "UNSAFE" WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1988 The new-for-1988 Ibishu Covet sedan has been found to be far less safe than its hatchback counterpart, after a series of frontal and rear crashes conducted by Grid Crash Test Enterprises this spring. The Covet sedan's structure is based on that of the current generation hatchback, which was introduced for the 1987 model year. The cause of the sedan's poor safety is believed to be rushed engineering on the sedan variant. Crash tests were conducted on both a Covet hatchback and Covet sedan for comparative purposes. These will be in succeeding posts. The 1987 Covet hatchback was released for sale on September 23, 1986. Market research conducted in winter 1987 showed that many Covet owners and prospective buyers preferred a four door sedan variant to a hatchback. Development of the Covet sedan began in February 1987, with an intent to release the vehicle in September 1988 as a 1989 model vehicle. However, Ibishu executives, citing red-hot sedan demand, wanted the vehicle out in time for the beginning of the 1988 model year - with sales to begin no later than September 30, 1987. Typically, a well-engineered conversion from hatchback to sedan takes over a year, due to the structural modifications needed to add rear doors, a trunk, as well as changing the entire cabin shape. But this deadline was seven months away. The resulting rush-job is deficient on safety. --- Post updated --- This is the first crash test in the Covet Hatchback vs. Covet Sedan series. Crash test date: Wednesday, April 27, 1988 A 1988 Covet hatchback and a 1988 Covet sedan were each hit in a full frontal manner by a 1988 Pessima GTz. Covet speed: stationary. Pessima speed: 40 mph. In these tests, the hatchback performed better, but the impact energy was insufficient to cause occupant compartment damage to the sedan. This was the least severe test in the group. Results - Hatchback vs Pessima: Damage to the Covet hatchback was moderate and confined to the front structure. There was no appreciable occupant compartment intrusion and the vehicle was still operational with radiator damage. Damage to the Pessima GTz was minor-moderate and confined to the front bodywork. The occupant compartment was intact and the windshield unbroken. The vehicle's radiator and engine were intact. The driver airbag did not deploy. Injury measurements: Covet driver/passenger HIC: 331 / 276 Covet driver/passenger chest G: 36 / 38 Covet driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 726 / 445 Pessima driver/passenger HIC: 115 / 209 Pessima driver/passenger chest G: 28 / 27 Pessima driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 361 / 418 The driver and passenger of the Covet would likely suffer minor injury. The driver and passenger of the Pessima would likely be uninjured. Results - Sedan vs Pessima Damage to the Covet sedan was significant and confined to the front structure. There was minimal occupant compartment intrusion and the vehicle was still operational with radiator damage. Damage was more severe than to the hatchback equivalent. Damage to the Pessima GTz was similar in severity to that of the Pessima vs. Hatchback crash test. The driver airbag did not deploy. Injury measurements: Covet driver/passenger HIC: 522 / 351 Covet driver/passenger chest G: 42 / 36 Covet driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 1,216 / 803 Pessima driver/passenger HIC: 128 / 164 Pessima driver/passenger chest G: 25 / 29 Pessima driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 302 / 395 The driver and passenger of the Covet would still likely suffer minor injury, although injury to the driver was slightly more severe. The driver and passenger of the Pessima would likely be uninjured. --- Post updated --- This is the second crash test in the Covet Hatchback vs. Covet Sedan series. The impact mode was the same, but the test speed was raised by 10 mph. Crash test date: Thursday, April 28, 1988 A 1988 Covet hatchback and a 1988 Covet sedan were each hit in a full frontal manner by a 1988 Pessima GTz. Covet speed: stationary. Pessima speed: 50 mph. Results - Hatchback vs Pessima: Damage to the Covet hatchback was significant and confined to the front structure. There was minor intrusion into the footwells and the vehicle was still operational with difficulty. Damage to the Pessima GTz was moderate and confined to the front structure. There was no appreciable occupant compartment intrusion and the vehicle was still operational with radiator damage. The driver airbag deployed. Injury measurements: Covet driver/passenger HIC: 588 / 525 Covet driver/passenger chest G: 42 / 44 Covet driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 1,110 / 1,215 Pessima driver/passenger HIC: 186 / 308 Pessima driver/passenger chest G: 35 / 31 Pessima driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 618 / 592 The driver and passenger of the Covet would likely suffer minor to moderate injury. The driver of the Pessima would likely be uninjured, while the passenger may sustain minor injury. Results - Sedan vs Pessima Damage to the Covet sedan was major, with the front crumple zone fully activated. There was moderate footwell intrusion and minor upper compartment intrusion, with the roof pillars showing very minor buckling - the front end had reached its limits of energy absorption. Damage to the Pessima GTz was similar in severity to that of the Pessima vs. Hatchback crash test. Injury measurements: Covet driver/passenger HIC: 814 / 901 Covet driver/passenger chest G: 52 / 46 Covet driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 1,788 / 1,404 Pessima driver/passenger HIC: 171 / 221 Pessima driver/passenger chest G: 33 / 31 Pessima driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 727 / 507 The driver and passenger of the Covet would still likely suffer minor injury, although injury to the driver was slightly more severe. The driver and passenger of the Pessima would likely be uninjured.
Crash Description: SUV ran a stop sign as a truck was crossing an intersection. The SUV tried to miss the truck by turning in the same direction, but was ran over by the back end of the truck after impact with the side.

This is the third crash test in the Covet Hatchback vs. Covet Sedan series. The impact mode was a full frontal barrier crash test at 30 mph. Crash test date: Thursday, May 5, 1988 A 1988 Covet hatchback and a 1988 Covet sedan each hit a solid wall at 30 mph. Despite the lower speed, this is a more severe test, with more kinetic energy absorbed by the vehicles. Speed: 30 mph. Results - Hatchback and Sedan Damage to the Covet hatchback was major, with the front crumple zone fully activated and the radiator damaged. Occupant compartment intrusion was minor; the A-pillars had little movement, the steering column stayed in position, and the footwells had little intrusion. A broken driver window was the only major fault. The driver door was operable with difficulty; the passenger door was easily opened. Damage to the Covet sedan was far more severe. The A-pillars buckled, and the steering column moved rearward and downward. The occupant compartment was found to be too weak relative to the front end. Both front doors and the left rear door were jammed. The right rear door was operable with difficulty. Injury measurements: Hatchback driver/passenger HIC: 619 / 549 Hatchback driver/passenger chest G: 47 / 40 Hatchback driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 813 / 1,221 Sedan driver/passenger HIC: 928 / 815 Sedan driver/passenger chest G: 65 / 51 Sedan driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 1,215 / 1,008 The driver and passenger of the hatchback would likely receive minor injuries. The driver of the sedan would be likely to suffer serious chest injury due to the chest striking the steering wheel. Both occupants would be likely to suffer moderate head injury.
This is the fourth crash test in the Covet Hatchback vs. Covet Sedan series. The impact mode was a full frontal barrier crash test at 35 mph. Crash test date: Thursday, May 5, 1988 A 1988 Covet hatchback and a 1988 Covet sedan each hit a solid wall at 35 mph. 36% more kinetic energy than the 30 mph test. Speed: 35 mph. Results - Hatchback and Sedan Damage to the Covet hatchback was major, with the front crumple zone fully activated and the engine damaged. Occupant compartment intrusion was moderate; the A-pillars had some movement, the steering column stayed in position, and the footwells had minor to moderate intrusion. Both front windows were broken. The driver door and passenger door both opened with difficulty. Damage to the Covet sedan was far more severe. The A-pillars and roof were severely buckled, and the steering column moved significantly rearward and downward. The footwells had moderate intrusion. The entire occupant compartment suffered damage, as evidenced by both the driver and rear right windows breaking. All four doors were jammed. Injury measurements: Hatchback driver/passenger HIC: 959 / 731 Hatchback driver/passenger chest G: 51 / 44 Hatchback driver/passenger femur loads (lbs): 1,317 / 1,225 Sedan driver/passenger HIC: 1,510 / 1,094 Sedan driver/passenger chest G: 73 / 53 Sedan driver/passenger max femur loads (lbs): 1,880 / 1,385 The driver and passenger of the hatchback would likely receive moderate injuries. The driver of the sedan would likely sustain life-threatening injuries to the head and chest; the passenger would likely sustain serious injury. Due to the steering column movement and unstable structure, the driver's head struck the instrument cluster and the chest hit the steering wheel.
This is the fifth crash test in the Covet Hatchback vs. Covet Sedan series. The impact mode was a full rear barrier crash test at 30 mph. Crash test date: Friday. May 6, 1988 A 1988 Covet hatchback and a 1988 Covet sedan each hit a solid wall at 30 mph in reverse. Speed: 30 mph. Results: The hatchback damage was confined to the rear end. Both doors were operable. The sedan's roof showed major deformation. All four doors were jammed.

Crash Description: 43 year old Bob Holland was fleeing from a Maine State Police highway patrol car. Why? He robbed a bank in Bangor and was attempting to go south towards New Hampshire. The driver of the cop car was Lieutenant Carson Larson. They were flying down one of the main roads near Saco, Maine. Carson was requested to pit the vehicle as Bob had taken out 4 police units already. How he did it was unexpectedly epic. He flew down a hill and suddenly got loose. The police unit started flipping and so fast it smashed right into the top of Bob's ETK. It was enough that Bob was startled and spun in a ditch. However the police unit kept flipping and then hit a tree, bouncing off of it and did a few more flips before landing on it's roof. Parts of Car Critically Damaged: ETK: Back of the roof; Sunburst Police: Basically every part of the car. Estimated Repair Cost and/or Totaled: ETK: Around 5,000; Sunburst: Totaled Injuries (If Any) Bob: N/A; Carson: Suffered a skull fracture, broken left arm, major whiplash, both legs broken, major concussion, broken spine, broken nose.

Carson retired from being a cop because he was permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Carson had only a 5% chance of survival but survived. Image(s) To be honest, this didn't go the way it was expected to go. The Sunburst (controlled by me) was supposed to turn the ETK into a tree. Instead, this happened. I chose to go with it because it just blew my mind.
