Here’s a crash test simulation video that Proton is playing at its Power of 1 event happening this week from March 14-18, from 10 am to 10 pm daily, at Bukit Jalil.
From what I understand, what engineers do is actually put in all the dimensions, shapes and specs of the car chassis into a simulation software, where they then perform virtual crash tests, which can be simulated through our understanding of the laws of physics, etc.
From there, they’ll use the results to further tweak the car until they are satisfied with the simulation crash test results. The physical car is then sent for a real-world crash test after the computer-aided design part is done.
AD: Drive the Proton model of your dreams. Submit your details and Proton PJ will get in touch with you.

AI-generated Summary ✨
The comments mostly defend Proton's use of crash simulation software, emphasizing that it is a standard, advanced, and realistic method for testing vehicle safety structures, comparable to those used by major global automakers and racing teams like F1. Many commenters highlight that simulation is a crucial part of modern car design, reducing cost and the need for physical crash tests, which are still necessary for validation. Several rebut off-topic and uninformed criticisms, stressing that the simulation results can be trusted and that real crash tests will confirm the safety ratings. Some users express impatience, waiting for official crash test results, like Euro NCAP ratings, to accurately assess Proton's safety performance. Overall, sentiments are supportive of Proton’s testing approach, with skepticism towards baseless accusations or misunderstandings about crash simulation technology.
