With that much engine we expected more from the Durango
during the acceleration testing at the dragstrip, but when we factored in the SUV's curb weight and NV244 full - time four - wheel - drive system, we were again reminded that what we want to use a 4x4 for and what the design team had in mind are not always the same thing.

Duma's ratings system has come under fire for not adequately simulating real - world impacts, but he has tweaked his equation and
testing so that rotational
acceleration — which occurs
during blows that cause the head to turn — will be taken into account in the ratings that will be released next year.
So what I did was I recruited 28
test subjects and had them complete three laps on the game Gran Turismo 3 for PlayStation 2; and they had a steering wheel, an
acceleration [and] brake pad to simulate a real driving experience, and I counted the number of crashes they made
during each lap, which was the number of times they hit the wall and also the number of times that they deviated from the course.
During test jumps, the robot briefly experienced
accelerations of about 13.8 g — more than three times those stomached by astronauts on the space shuttle as they were boosted into orbit.
We worry more about
testing 50 to 90 mph
acceleration and thus see 14.1 mpg
during 40 miles of mostly highway driving.
During a
test - drive of a 740Li, we were particularly impressed that the six - cylinder car exhibited less turbo lag off the line and provided smoother, more linear
acceleration.
Confirmation: our Vbox
test equipment recorded a peak
acceleration reading of 0.96 g, a record
during Automobile's first decade of car
testing.
NHTSA engineers and researchers also
tested Toyota vehicles at NHTSA's Vehicle Research and
Test Center in East Liberty, Ohio to determine whether there were any additional mechanical causes for unintended acceleration and whether any of the test scenarios developed during the NHTSA - NASA investigation could actually occur in real - world conditi

test scenarios developed
during the NHTSA - NASA investigation could actually occur in real - world conditions.
During 0 -60-mph
acceleration testing, it achieved a time of 7.3 seconds.
The Audi Q3 offers brisk
acceleration with a 0 - 100kmph time of 10.91 seconds
during our performance
tests.
The Institute's dynamic ratings of good, acceptable, marginal, or poor are derived from two seat design parameters (peak
acceleration of the dummy's torso and time from impact initiation to head restraint contact with the dummy's head) plus neck tension and shear forces recorded on BioRID
during the
test.
The recuperation potential in the NEDC
test cycle allows use of electric assistance in
accelerations up to 30 km / h [18.6 mph] and potentially to provide torque assist at other road speeds including
during engine - off coasting.
The resulting noise level, as experienced in my»99
test wagon, is acceptable at cruising speeds, but the tester's engine was still loud and buzzy
during hard
acceleration.
During internal company evaluations,
test drivers report enhanced response and more enjoyable driving due to a reduction of busy gear changes, improved shift down control and a better matching of
acceleration feel with the engine's Active Sound Control (ASC) system.
The Institute's dynamic ratings of good, acceptable, marginal, or poor are derived from two seat design parameters (peak
acceleration of the dummy's torso and time from impact initiation to head restraint contact with the dummy's head) plus neck tension and shear forces recorded on the BioRID dummy
during the
test.
During our
test drive on sodden roads, traction was impressive, with the system quick to fire torque rearwards under hard
acceleration.
The information recorded by the crash
test dummies in real time
during the crash
tests, such as
accelerations, forces, moments and displacements.
