Guangqi Honda conducted a crash test in Tianjin on Sunday, which was also the first one held in China. The company's new POLAR-Ⅲ dummy priced at 7 million yuan was used for the first time .

The test only took 0.2 seconds where POLAR-Ⅲ was used as a pedestrian. After it was hit by the vehicle's front bumper, the dummy's fractures and ligamental injuries were recorded.

Japanese technicians were present to document the data on the impacts of the crash to support their further research on how to enhance safety.
