Brilliance BS6, Not as lethal as before


zunchi01 Brilliance BS6, Not as lethal as before

After the disastrous crash test in Germany for Brilliance, Brilliance went back to the drawing board full of fresh ideas and recommendations from their German friends on how to make their car safer, and they have made it safer! The BS6 was retested in Spain this week and gained a 3 star rating. Brilliance have succesfully upgraded the safety cell and have improved the A and B column which allow the doors to open normally in event of a front collision, the roof has also been strengthened, in addition a whole host of safety features have been added such as EDS, front and side airbags and safety belts with belt latch tighteners

China Car Times has to ask, is it too late for Brilliance now, is it a case of closing the stable door after the horse has bolted? Their reputation, especially this models reputation lies in tatters, on the other hand, it shows that at least some Chinese companies are taking safety, and the road to Europe seriously.

Is hyundai the only source of pride for u, well, heck since ssangyong is owned by the chinese, daewoo flopped and is now GM run by Holden, Kia flopped as well and is now Hyundai. I mean Hyundai is ur only car company man, only 1. Chinas got tons, Japan has tons, US has tons, germany has tons of makers and korea has 1. clap. that must be it huh. u guys only have 1 so u have to crap on about them, to make some noise. and since ur cars dont match up to anyone else, heck lets have a go at the chinese cos god forbid when they start making good cars, koreans wont have nothing left to rant about. is that it? hahahaha dude i feel sorry 4 u. ey drink ur self a cold glass of gatorade and go to bed. and while ur at it think about this. the word Hyundai, its comes from chinese for ‘modern’, korea doesnt have its own words so it had to copy china’s. u guys copied ur country and culture off the chinese and ur complaining cos the chinese are copying cars. man that is pathetic.
