Episode 2 of our Because it’s Mercedes-Benz series brings our hosts Becky Evans and Elly Wong to the most essential place when it comes to making Mercedes-Benz vehicles as safe as possible – the Crash Test Centre in Sindelfingen. This 55,000 square meter giant out of concrete and steel accommodates 900 crash tests and 1,700 sled tests every year which shows how important safety research and development is taken at Mercedes-Benz. Becky and Elly meet up with the Mercedes-Benz experts to learn more about the history of safety testing and how a Mercedes-Benz is constructed to improve passenger safety inside. Next up they get to see up close, how an EQE SUV is prepared for a frontal crash and how much data is collected to gain the necessary insights. Before they get to experience the crash test, Becky and Elly meet the real stars of the facility – the Crash Test Dummys. More than 100 of these highly sophisticated machines are constantly maintained at the test centre, waiting for their next mission.
