Not Ranked
Hmm, looks like the crash testing is the prohibitive part if that's the case then, however from the DoIT website.
"The Low Volume Scheme for new vehicles allows for the supply to the market of up to 25 or 100 vehicles per year per vehicle category. The Scheme provides a major concession in that it allows alternative forms of evidence to be submitted against some of the ADRs. In the main this applies to ADRs where destructive or expensive testing is required".
Which leads me to the conclusion that crash testing isn't required. I know this has been raked over a million times, but why can't an ICV just be issued with a national ICV compliance plate on completion of engineering? That wy the car can be transferred around the country with zero hassles.
