The report describes the results of the sled testing and vehicle crash testing that were conducted in order to evaluate the performance of four advanced restraints systems in a compact size automobile. These results were then used to construct a crash survivability envelope for the front seat occupants of the subject vehicle in a variety of accident modes. The vehicle chosen for this effort was the 1976 Volvo 244. The restraint systems chosen to be integrated into the Volvo were: (1) advanced driver airbag system; (2) advanced passenger airbag system; (3) force-limited airbelt system; (4) force-limited 2-inch belt system.
