vehicle safety feature
Experimental safety vehicle (ESV) is the designation for experimental concept cars which are used to test car safety ideas.
In 1973, the U.S. DOT announced its ESV project, the aim of which was to obtain safer vehicles by 1981. A car produced by this effort was known as the Minicar RSV.
In 1991, the ESV abbreviation was backronymed to enhanced safety of vehicles.
