OMG🤯! These 10 Sedans Failed the Moose Test 🫎 (#1 will Surprise Everyone!)

Could your car survive a sudden emergency swerve at highway speeds? That’s exactly what the “Moose Test” is designed to find out. Developed in Sweden, this test simulates a real-world scenario: swerving sharply to avoid an obstacle, like an animal or child, without braking. It’s a split-second maneuver that can expose critical flaws in vehicle dynamics—especially in sedans that prioritize comfort or efficiency over agility.
Today, we’re looking at 10 sedans—many of them electric or hybrid—that failed to meet the benchmark speed of 77 km/h, and one that smashed expectations.
What the Moose Test Reveals?
These results aren’t just numbers—they tell a story about the hidden dangers of modern vehicle design.
🚫 EVs and Hybrids Are Heavier—And That Matters
The biggest factor limiting sedan performance in the Moose Test is weight. Heavier vehicles have more inertia and require more grip and sharper reactions to stay in control. Many EVs and hybrids exceed 2 tons, making fast changes of direction inherently difficult.
🚫 Tires Can Make or Break It
Cars with low rolling resistance tires, like the Camry and Ioniq 6, struggled to maintain grip. Efficiency-focused rubber often lacks the lateral stability needed in emergency maneuvers.
🚫 Stability Control Isn’t Always Smart Enough
ESC (Electronic Stability Control) needs to kick in quickly and decisively. Several vehicles, like the Polestar 2 and Lexus LS, had systems that were either too slow or too soft to intervene effectively.
