Another take on the famous Saab Moose Test
From Flickr, I found this rather amusing and perhaps all-too-realistic rendition of the famous Saab Moose Test.
It appears that this is a Saab 9000 that actually experienced a crash with a moose and it was subsequently adorned with a faux dead moose for the exhibit. At least, for the sake of the nasal passages of the viewers, I hope that moose is fake!

hahaha. okay im a little less worried about hitting a deer in my 9000 now.
It’s not clear if it passed or failed. ?
Definitely passed. As the comment below points out, the A-pillars are intact, and both passengers still have room for their heads. EnG
Three elks crossed the road 50 meters in front of my car this evening…. but in my Saab I felt very safe
moose is loose in sweden
That car has strong A-pillars as they arent even remotely deformed. The roof on the other hand, yikes! I am sure the driver and passenger survived or they wouldnt have bothered having that funky hood ornament added to the 9000! Luckily we dont get too many moose - or is that mooses or moosi - here in Vancouver.
PETA is going to be pissed.
Like that’s a surprise. EnG
Mooses are very tricky for car manufacturers. With deers and such the bounce off the hood, but the moose have a very heavy body on long, thin legs so if your car isn’t strong enough you get the moose in you lap.
