2022 Tesla Model Y vs VW ID.6 Crozz - CRASH TEST
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXcLPs7ULw4
Here we have a very interesting crash test of two modern electric cars, available in China - the
Tesla Model Y and
Volkswagen ID.6 CROZZ. We would actually put the Model Y against the
ID.4, but let's see how it will perform versus a heavier ID.6 (ID.4 and ID.6 are both MEB-based, ID.6 is slightly longer).
The two cars went head to head in a collision with a 50% offset, at a speed of 64 km/h (40 mph) each, which is comparable to hitting a stationary, deformable barrier at 128 km/h (80 mph).
The results are not bad as the passenger compartment in both cars appears to be mostly intact and there was no fire, although there are many marks where dummies hit air bags, seats, doors or other elements.
The driver-side doors on the Model Y could not open after the crash, while on the ID.6, all four doors could be opened after the crash.
Overall the damage level appears to be similar - it would be difficult for us to say that one of the vehicles is significantly better than the other in this particular test, especially since the language barrier prevents us from fully understand the findings.
Maybe there is a small advantage to the ID.6 over the Model Y, but considering that the Model Y is probably noticeably lighter, it actually did pretty well. Both cars should be considered as very safe.
Here is a quick look at the disassembled cars after the crash test, which shows the mostly untouched battery pack of the ID.6 and a quite wrinkled battery case of the Model Y:

Pelos vistos o Tesla Model Y Chines é mais "soft" menos rigido do que, as versões europeias além disso o concorrente direto do ID6 da Yesla é o Model X e não o Y pois, segundo o que vem no artigo do link colocado acima o ID6 é um quarto de tonelada mais pesado. A não abertura da porta do condutor no caso do Tesla é consequência dos danos sofridos pela carroçaria e não, devido a uma qualquer falha eletrica.
Contudo os ocupantes do Tesla sobreviveriam ao acidente sem grandes maselas, apesar de a carroçaria desta VERSÃO CHINESA estar no limite da carga que consegue aguentar

The Model Y driver’s door could not be opened by hand because it was tightened by the hinges moving backwards. After a car crash, climbing to another door with ringing ears, dizzy, shocked, bruised is not a good fun. The A-pillar (the foot of the front windshield pillar) collapsed and moved backwards, and the roof arch shell also cracked in several places. The threshold opened and creased. What looks worst: both the floor plate and the axle cover plate were wavy, i.e. the whole body curled up so much that it pulled everything away. With all this, the passenger cell remained intact, but the big question is what we would have seen even at 10 – 20 km / h.
