What are the different types of side impact crash tests?

Side impact tests include: Moving deformable barrier (MDB) test striking the driver side at 50-62 km/h (simulating another vehicle), pole impact with vehicle striking a rigid pole at 29-32 km/h at center or offset positions, IIHS side crash with larger barrier representing SUV impact, and Euro NCAP far-side occupant assessment. Tests evaluate door intrusion, airbag deployment, occupant kinematics, and injury criteria. Side impacts are challenging because occupants are close to the impact zone with limited crush space.
