The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) plans to crash test 72 cars and light trucks to provide a range of safety information, including risk of rollover and side impact crashworthiness.
NHTSA said 41 vehicles will be subjected to head-on frontal crashes and 31 vehicles will be inflicted with side impact collisions. NHTSA will also test the rollover propensity of 61 vehicles.
