It’s easily shown that all swing axle rear engine cars had the same issue. It’s a basic reality of that design. Nadar could have picked on VW and Porsche for the same handling character, but he didn’t. The “redesign” is a lie too. Physics means that rear engine cars work the rear tires harder. This ultimately results in oversteer. There’s nothing Chevy or anybody else can do about that. But that sure has hell doesn’t make the car unsafe.

Perhaps those vehicles were less safe as well. Nader helped put two auto-safety bills into law and established the National Traffic Safety Agency.

Car safety has come a long way as a result.

Engineering, material science, and social pressures all are to credit for safety improvements.

Nadar built a career on a false pretense, at least as far as the Corvair is concerned. His book of course touched on other vehicles as well. The most important aspect, IMO, was pedestrian safety.

What was the false pretense?  :shrug:

That the Corvair is more dangerous than any other rear engine swing axle trailing link car. There’s simply nothing wrong with the design, in fact it birthed 20 million cars and nobody cried over it. The best part is that Nadar claimed the car required a more sufficient anti roll bar, thats totally wrong. Swing axle cars need a Z-bar, this provides a “zero roll” function and solves the perceived issues that Nadar incorrectly believed he understood. In summary, he was full of shit in regards to the Corvair.
