MDB-IIHS V2

IIHS Side Impact Moving Deformable Barrier V2

Based on Aluminum Honeycomb technology, the MDB-IIHS V2 barrier (Side Impact Moving Deformable Barrier – IIHS May 2020) is an updated version of the moving deformable barrier to be used in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) side impact crashworthiness evaluations 2.0 planed being introduced by 2022.
The MBD-IIHS V2 provides a measurement tool with sufficient precision to ensure repetitive and correlative results under similar test conditions and reflect adequately the protective performance of a motor vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment with respect to human occupants. The new barrier provides a better representation of Pick-up and SUVs front design based on updated data.
